Overview

The DMG Mori LASERTEC 125 DED hybrid scales the hybrid additive-subtractive concept to a larger work envelope for bigger aerospace structural components, die and mold work, and energy sector parts. With X/Y/Z travels of 1,250 x 1,120 x 750 mm (49.2 x 44.1 x 29.5 in), it handles workpieces that the LASERTEC 65 cannot accommodate.

The 5-axis configuration uses a B-axis tilt from -120 to +120 degrees and 360-degree continuous C-axis rotation. The milling spindle runs up to 12,000 RPM with 46 kW (62 hp) of power through an HSK-A63 taper, delivering enough cutting force for serious roughing and finishing of deposited material as well as conventional machining operations.

The DED laser cladding system delivers up to 4 kW of laser power through interchangeable coaxial and lateral powder nozzles. Deposition rates reach 2.0 kg/h (4.4 lb/h) for production-scale material buildup. The higher laser power and larger nozzle options enable faster deposition of thick wall sections, flanges, and wear-resistant overlays. Multiple nozzle geometries can be stored in the tool magazine and changed automatically.

The machine handles workpieces up to 2,000 kg (4,409 lb), making it suitable for large forging dies, turbine casings, and structural aerospace components. Material capability covers all standard DED alloys including stainless steels, tool steels, titanium alloys, nickel superalloys, and cobalt-based hard-facing materials.

DMG Mori positions the LASERTEC 125 as the go-to machine for adding features to large castings and forgings, building up worn die surfaces, and creating large near-net-shape preforms that are then finish-machined in situ. The CELOS control with OPTOMET parameter management handles both the additive and subtractive programming. Pricing typically falls in the ,200,000 to ,000,000 range.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

1,250 x 1,120 x 750 mm travel handles large dies, turbine casings, and structural aerospace parts that will not fit on the LASERTEC 65
46 kW milling spindle delivers serious cutting power for both finish machining deposited material and conventional roughing
Deposition rates up to 2.0 kg/h with 4 kW laser enable production-scale material buildup on large components
2,000 kg workpiece capacity accommodates heavy forgings, dies, and castings for feature addition and repair
Interchangeable powder nozzles stored in the tool magazine allow automatic switching between deposition strategies
Ideal for extending the life of expensive large dies and molds by depositing fresh material on worn surfaces

Limitations

.2M-M price tag makes this a major capital investment requiring consistent large-format hybrid work
Large footprint requires significant floor space and likely foundation work for the 2,000 kg table capacity
DED surface quality requires extensive machining to achieve final tolerances, adding cycle time
Managing powder handling at production scale adds operational complexity and safety considerations
Programming large hybrid parts requires advanced CAM expertise in both additive and subtractive strategies

Best For

Die and mold shops repairing and rebuilding large forging dies, die casting dies, and plastic injection molds Aerospace structural manufacturers building large titanium and Inconel components with reduced material waste Power generation companies repairing large turbine casings, valve bodies, and hot-section components Oil and gas manufacturers hard-facing and repairing large drill bits, downhole tools, and pump components Heavy equipment manufacturers adding wear-resistant overlays to large mining and construction components Defense manufacturers building large-format structural components with hybrid additive-subtractive workflows

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What does a LASERTEC 125 DED hybrid cost?

Typically ,200,000 to ,000,000 depending on laser power, spindle options, and automation packages. The larger frame, higher-power laser, and heavier table capacity drive the premium over the LASERTEC 65.

02 How does it differ from the LASERTEC 65 DED hybrid?

The 125 roughly doubles the work envelope (1,250 vs 650 mm X-travel), increases laser power to 4 kW (vs 3 kW), boosts spindle power to 46 kW (vs 35 kW), and handles 2,000 kg workpieces (vs 600 kg). It is built for large dies and structural parts.

03 Can it build complete parts from scratch?

Yes, but DED is most cost-effective for adding features to existing substrates or building near-net-shape preforms. Building complete parts from scratch via DED is slower and less material-efficient than powder bed fusion for small parts or casting/forging for large volumes.

04 What nozzle configurations are available?

The machine supports coaxial nozzles for general-purpose deposition and lateral nozzles for specific geometries. Multiple nozzles can be stored in the tool magazine and changed automatically during the process.
