Overview

The DMG MORI SPRINT 50 is a multi-turret automatic lathe for bar up to 50 mm (2 in), with a main and a counter spindle that carry one rating: 7,000 rpm, 55.3 ft lb and 21.5 hp (nominal). Workpieces can be up to 140 mm (5.5 in) in diameter and 235 mm (9.3 in) long, and DMG MORI lists the machine for both collet and chuck applications.

How many turrets it has depends on the control. The FANUC model has 2 turrets. SIEMENS models come as a 2-turret twin concept, with 3 turrets, or with 3 turrets plus a B-axis. Each turret has 12 VDI 25 tool stations with Trifix, and every station can be driven, which is how the machine reaches up to 36 tool stations. The TWIN design, which DMG MORI states is patented, uses two turrets to machine longer workpieces. The B-axis has a torque motor and a direct measuring system.

Driven tool spindles run at up to 8,000 rpm with 7.4 ft lb and 2 hp (nominal). Those are light figures: enough for cross drilling, small slots and engraving in bar parts, not for heavy milling. The equal spindles point the other way. With 21.5 hp on both sides, back-working is not confined to finishing cuts, and the counter spindle can take the turning load the main spindle takes.

Travels are 165 mm (6.5 in) in X, 70 mm (2.8 in) in Y and 235 mm (9.3 in) in Z. The SPRINT 65 has the same 165 mm (6.5 in) of X with 80 mm (3.1 in) of Y and 420 mm (16.5 in) of Z, so the larger model is mainly a longer one.

The machine bed is vertical, so chips fall free, and it rests on a 3-point support. Main and counter spindle are water-cooled. Control is FANUC or SIEMENS with CELOS on an ERGOline Full-HD touchscreen, and the Fanuc version runs MAPPS V. Up to 10 linear axes, 1 B-axis and 2 C-axes are available.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

Main and counter spindle both rated 7,000 rpm, 55.3 ft lb and 21.5 hp (nominal)
Up to 36 tool stations: 12 VDI 25 tool stations with Trifix per turret, each of which can be driven
SIEMENS models are available with 3 turrets plus a B-axis with torque motor and direct measuring system
Vertical machine bed for free chip fall, on a 3-point support
Water-cooled main and counter spindle

Limitations

Driven tools are limited to 7.4 ft lb and 2 hp (nominal), at up to 8,000 rpm
The FANUC model has 2 turrets; 3 turrets and the B-axis are SIEMENS configurations
Z travel and maximum workpiece length are 235 mm (9.3 in); the SPRINT 65 has 420 mm (16.5 in) of Z
Y travel is 70 mm (2.8 in), which limits the reach of off-centre operations

Best For

Bar-fed production parts up to 50 mm (2 in) Complete machining on both sides using the main and counter spindle Short parts up to 235 mm (9.3 in) long with many light driven-tool operations Angled drilling and milling on the SIEMENS version with B-axis

Frequently Asked Questions

01 How many turrets does the SPRINT 50 have?

It depends on the control. The FANUC model is 2 turrets. The SIEMENS models are a 2-turret twin concept, 3 turrets, or 3 turrets plus B-axis. Each turret carries 12 VDI 25 tool stations with Trifix, each of which can be driven, for up to 36 tool stations.

02 What are the spindle ratings of the SPRINT 50?

Main and counter spindle have the same figures: 7,000 rpm, 55.3 ft lb and 21.5 hp (nominal). Both are water-cooled. Bar capacity is 50 mm (2 in) and the maximum workpiece diameter is 140 mm (5.5 in).

03 How powerful are the driven tools on the SPRINT 50?

The driven tool spindles are rated up to 8,000 rpm, 7.4 ft lb and 2 hp (nominal). Every one of the 12 stations on a turret can be driven. The ratings suit drilling and light milling on bar parts; a job that needs heavy milling cuts should be checked against the 7.4 ft lb figure first.

04 What is the difference between the SPRINT 50 and the SPRINT 65?

In travel, mostly length. Both have 165 mm (6.5 in) of X. The SPRINT 50 has 70 mm (2.8 in) of Y and 235 mm (9.3 in) of Z, while the SPRINT 65 has 80 mm (3.1 in) of Y and 420 mm (16.5 in) of Z. The SPRINT 50 takes bar up to 50 mm (2 in).

05 Which controls are available on the SPRINT 50?

FANUC and SIEMENS, both with CELOS on an ERGOline Full-HD touchscreen. The Fanuc version comes with MAPPS V. The choice also fixes the turret layout: the FANUC model is 2 turrets, while the SIEMENS models cover the twin concept, 3 turrets, and 3 turrets plus B-axis.
