Our best estimate for a cnc lathes / turning center in this class — not a quote from DMG Mori. Configuration moves it a long way.

Overview

Bar up to 65 mm (2.6 in) and parts up to 420 mm (16.5 in) long are the working range of the DMG MORI SPRINT 65, a production lathe with a main spindle, a counter spindle and up to three turrets. Maximum workpiece diameter is 175 mm (6.9 in).

The two spindles are not alike. The main spindle is rated 5,000 rpm, 110.6 ft lb and 29.5 hp (nominal). The counter spindle turns at 5,000 rpm as well, with 63.4 ft lb and 24.1 hp (nominal). Roughing therefore belongs on the main side, where torque is about 74% higher, and second-side operations should be planned as lighter cuts.

Tooling sits in VDI 30 tool stations with Trifix. There are 12 per turret and each can be driven, for up to 36 tool stations in all. The driven tool spindles reach up to 12,000 rpm with 8.9 ft lb and 8.7 hp (nominal). That speed suits small drills and end mills; the torque figure sets the limit on cutter diameter.

Turret count follows the control. The FANUC model is 3 turrets. SIEMENS models are offered as a 2-turret twin concept, as 3 turrets, or as 3 turrets plus a B-axis that has a torque motor and a direct measuring system. In the TWIN design two turrets work on longer workpieces. Up to 10 linear axes, 1 B-axis and 2 C-axes are available, through CELOS on an ERGOline Full-HD touchscreen, with MAPPS V on the Fanuc version.

Axis travels are 165 mm (6.5 in) in X, 80 mm (3.1 in) in Y and 420 mm (16.5 in) in Z. The SPRINT 50 has the same X travel but 70 mm (2.8 in) of Y and 235 mm (9.3 in) of Z. The CTX 350 4A is longer again at 495 mm (19.5 in) of Z, with 185 mm (7.3 in) of X and 100 mm (3.9 in) of Y.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

5,000 rpm main spindle with 110.6 ft lb and 29.5 hp (nominal)
Driven tool spindles up to 12,000 rpm with 8.9 ft lb and 8.7 hp (nominal)
65 mm (2.6 in) bar capacity and 420 mm (16.5 in) of Z travel
The FANUC model is 3 turrets, and VDI 30 with Trifix gives up to 36 tool stations
SIEMENS version available as 3 turrets plus B-axis

Limitations

The counter spindle has 63.4 ft lb and 24.1 hp (nominal), less than the main spindle's 110.6 ft lb and 29.5 hp
Both spindles are rated 5,000 rpm, which limits surface speed on small-diameter bar
The B-axis appears only among the SIEMENS configurations; the FANUC model is 3 turrets
X travel is 165 mm (6.5 in), the same as the SPRINT 50, so the larger model adds length and not cross travel

Best For

Bar work up to 65 mm (2.6 in) needing heavier roughing on the main spindle Parts up to 420 mm (16.5 in) long machined with two turrets in the TWIN design Small-tool drilling and milling at up to 12,000 rpm Production parts worked by three turrets across main and counter spindle

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What bar size and part length does the SPRINT 65 handle?

Bar capacity is 65 mm (2.6 in). The maximum workpiece is 175 mm (6.9 in) in diameter and 420 mm (16.5 in) long, which equals the Z travel. X travel is 165 mm (6.5 in) and Y travel 80 mm (3.1 in).

02 Are the main and counter spindle of the SPRINT 65 the same?

No. Both run at 5,000 rpm, but the main spindle is rated 110.6 ft lb and 29.5 hp (nominal) and the counter spindle 63.4 ft lb and 24.1 hp (nominal). Put the heavy stock removal on the main spindle and keep the counter spindle for the lighter back-side work. DMG MORI states that both are water-cooled.

03 What speed and power do the driven tools have on the SPRINT 65?

The driven tool spindles are rated up to 12,000 rpm, 8.9 ft lb and 8.7 hp (nominal). All 12 VDI 30 tool stations of a turret can be driven. With that much speed and modest torque, the driven tools are best matched to small-diameter cutters.

04 Is the SPRINT 65 available with a B-axis?

Yes, as one of the SIEMENS models, which are a 2-turret twin concept, 3 turrets, and 3 turrets plus B-axis. The B-axis has a torque motor and a direct measuring system. The FANUC model is 3 turrets, with MAPPS V.

05 How does the SPRINT 65 compare with the SPRINT 50?

X travel is 165 mm (6.5 in) on both. The SPRINT 65 has 80 mm (3.1 in) of Y and 420 mm (16.5 in) of Z; the SPRINT 50 has 70 mm (2.8 in) of Y and 235 mm (9.3 in) of Z. The SPRINT 65 takes bar up to 65 mm (2.6 in) and parts up to 175 mm (6.9 in) in diameter.
