Our best estimate for a swiss-type lathe in this class — not a quote from DMG Mori. Configuration moves it a long way.

Overview

The DMG MORI SPRINT 32|8 is an automatic lathe for bar up to 32 mm (1.3 in), built with 6 linear axes and 2 C-axes. Main and counter spindle both run to 8,500 rpm, finished parts can be up to 240 mm (9.4 in) long, and the machine carries a total of 41 tool stations, of which 8 are driven as standard.

The two spindles share a top speed but not a rating. The main spindle is given as 29.8 ft lb and 7.4 hp, the counter spindle as 10.3 ft lb and 3 hp. That split tells you how to plan a part: put the heavy turning on the main side and leave the counter spindle the lighter back-end operations. Both spindles have integrated motors with direct measuring systems.

The driven tool spindles reach 6,000 rpm with 2.2 ft lb and 1.3 hp. That covers cross holes, small flats and slots in parts of bar diameter, and not much beyond. The FANUC 32i-B Plus control runs 2 control channels and up to 2 tools can work simultaneously, so front and back operations overlap instead of waiting for each other.

DMG MORI offers the SWISSTYPEkit as an option for short and long part turning on one machine. A shop whose mix includes long, slender parts should confirm the kit is on the quotation, because it is not part of the standard machine. A Tool Monitoring System with graphical tool load display is also an option.

Travels are 70 mm (2.8 in) in X, 405 mm (15.9 in) in Y and 100 mm (3.9 in) in Z. The SPRINT 32|5, SPRINT 32|9 and SPRINT 32|10 carry the same three figures, so travel does not separate the 32 mm variants. The SPRINT 20|8 is the smaller machine at 50 mm (2 in), 325 mm (12.8 in) and 60 mm (2.4 in).

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

Main and counter spindle both reach 8,500 rpm, with 29.8 ft lb and 7.4 hp on the main spindle
Total of 41 tool stations, including 8 driven tool stations as standard
2 control channels on the FANUC 32i-B Plus, with up to 2 tools working simultaneously
Integrated spindle motors with direct measuring systems on both main and counter spindle
Vertical covers give free chip fall, on a thermo-symmetric machine bed with large ball guide ways

Limitations

The counter spindle is rated 10.3 ft lb and 3 hp, well below the 29.8 ft lb and 7.4 hp of the main spindle
Driven tools are limited to 2.2 ft lb and 1.3 hp at 6,000 rpm
The SWISSTYPEkit for short and long part turning on one machine is an option
The Tool Monitoring System with graphical tool load display is an option
Workpieces stop at 32 mm (1.3 in) in diameter and 240 mm (9.4 in) in length

Best For

Bar-fed turned parts up to 32 mm (1.3 in) in diameter Parts finished on both ends across main and counter spindle Light cross drilling and milling on the 8 driven tool stations Mixed short and long parts when the optional SWISSTYPEkit is fitted

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What bar size and part length does the SPRINT 32|8 take?

Bar capacity is 32 mm (1.3 in), which is also the maximum workpiece diameter. Maximum workpiece length is 240 mm (9.4 in). Travels are 70 mm (2.8 in) in X, 405 mm (15.9 in) in Y and 100 mm (3.9 in) in Z.

02 How strong are the main and counter spindle of the SPRINT 32|8?

Both run to 8,500 rpm. The main spindle is rated 29.8 ft lb and 7.4 hp, the counter spindle 10.3 ft lb and 3 hp. Each has an integrated spindle motor with a direct measuring system. With the counter spindle at roughly a third of the main spindle's torque, heavy cuts belong on the main side.

03 How many tools does the SPRINT 32|8 hold and how many are driven?

DMG MORI states a total of 41 tool stations, with 8 driven tool stations as standard. The driven tool spindles run at 6,000 rpm with 2.2 ft lb and 1.3 hp, so they suit small drills and end mills, not heavy milling.

04 Which control does the SPRINT 32|8 have?

A FANUC 32i-B Plus with a 10.4 in color display on the control panel. It handles 2 control channels, 6 linear axes and 2 C-axes, and up to 2 tools can work simultaneously. A Tool Monitoring System with graphical tool load display is available as an option.

05 How does the SPRINT 32|8 compare in travel with the SPRINT 20|8?
