Overview

The DMG MORI DMP 35 is a compact production vertical whose working envelope is deeper than it is wide: 350 mm (13.8 in) of X against 420 mm (16.5 in) of Y, with 380 mm (15 in) of Z. It stands on 33.90 ft² and is built around a 15,000 rpm inline spindle with up to 57.53 ft.lb. and a tool magazine with a chip-to-chip time of 1.5 seconds.

The stated figures all point at short cycles on small parts. Rapid traverse is 2,362.20 in./min in all axes, and with only 350 mm of X the spindle is never far from its next position. On a part made of many short operations, the 1.5 seconds between cuts decides the cycle time more than the cutting does.

Two spindles are named. The 15,000 rpm inline spindle with up to 57.53 ft.lb. is the one in the headline. A 24,000 rpm inline spindle with up to 35.40 ft.lb. is an option, and it trades torque for speed: right for small cutters and fine finishing, wrong for larger drills and taps. The spindle bearings are spring preloaded. Cooling measures and a direct absolute path measuring system are part of the basic machine.

Workpieces can be up to 740 × 420 × 580 mm (29.1 × 16.5 × 22.8 in) and 400 kg (881.8 lb), or 290 mm (11.4 in) in diameter. The 740 mm length is more than twice the X travel, so a part or fixture of that length is reached over only part of it. Check the reachable zone against the fixture drawing.

5-axis simultaneous machining is an option. DMG MORI also describes automated 6-side complete machining for medical and production work, with the WH 3 workpiece handling system as the automation. The DMP 70 keeps the same Y and Z and has 700 mm (27.6 in) of X, twice as much.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

Chip-to-chip time of 1.5 seconds from the tool magazine
Rapid traverses of 2,362.20 in./min in all axes
15,000 rpm inline spindle with up to 57.53 ft.lb., on spring preloaded bearings
Footprint of only 33.90 ft² for the machine
Direct absolute path measuring system and cooling measures in the basic machine
Prepared for automation with the WH 3 workpiece handling system

Limitations

X travel is 350 mm (13.8 in); the DMP 70 has 700 mm (27.6 in) on the same Y and Z
5-axis simultaneous machining is an option, not part of the basic machine
The 24,000 rpm spindle is an option and its torque is lower, at up to 35.40 ft.lb.
Workpiece weight is limited to 400 kg (881.8 lb)
DMG MORI's Highlights do not state the number of tools in the magazine

Best For

Small parts in volume, where 1.5 seconds chip-to-chip shortens every cycle Medical components, including automated 6-side complete machining Production cells on limited floor space: 33.90 ft² per machine Small-cutter work at 24,000 rpm with the optional spindle

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What spindles are offered on the DMP 35?

DMG MORI names a 15,000 rpm inline spindle with up to 57.53 ft.lb. and, as an option, a 24,000 rpm inline spindle with up to 35.40 ft.lb. Spindle stiffness comes from spring preloaded bearings. No power figure is given in the Highlights.

02 How fast are the tool change and the rapids on the DMP 35?

The tool magazine gives a chip-to-chip time of 1.5 seconds, and rapid traverses are 2,362.20 in./min in all axes. With travels of 350 mm (13.8 in), 420 mm (16.5 in) and 380 mm (15 in), positioning moves are short as well as fast.

03 Is the DMP 35 a 5-axis machine?

Not as standard. DMG MORI lists 5-axis simultaneous machining as an optional ability for complex parts, so it has to be ordered. Maximum workpiece diameter is 290 mm (11.4 in) and maximum workpiece weight is 400 kg (881.8 lb).

04 What size of workpiece fits the DMP 35?

Up to 740 mm (29.1 in) long, 420 mm (16.5 in) wide and 580 mm (22.8 in) high, up to 290 mm (11.4 in) in diameter and up to 400 kg (881.8 lb). X travel is 350 mm (13.8 in), so the longest workpieces cannot be machined along their whole length in one position.

05 How does the DMP 35 differ from the DMP 70?

In X travel. The DMP 35 has 350 mm (13.8 in) and the DMP 70 has 700 mm (27.6 in). Both have 420 mm (16.5 in) of Y and 380 mm (15 in) of Z. The DMP 35 occupies 33.90 ft².
