How much does the DMG Mori Wasino A 150Y|18 cost?
Estimated price range
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
DMG MORI lists 18 tools for the Wasino A 150Y|18, a Y-axis lathe for parts up to 240 mm (9.4 in) in diameter and 245 mm (9.6 in) long. Bar capacity is 67 mm (2.6 in).
The tool count is the point of the machine. DMG MORI files it under process integration: the more tools that stay on the machine, the fewer operations move to a second one, and the fewer changeovers are needed when several part numbers share a setup. Combined with 100 mm (3.9 in) of Y travel, that makes the lathe a candidate for parts that would otherwise need a separate operation for off-centre features. No rotary tool speed or power is published, so the milling side has to be clarified with the quotation.
Travel is 180 mm (7.1 in) in X and 350 mm (13.8 in) in Z. The CTX 350 4A is close in cross travel, at 185 mm (7.3 in) of X and 100 mm (3.9 in) of Y, but has 495 mm (19.5 in) of Z. A buyer choosing between them is deciding on part length.
On the structural side, DMG MORI names a pre-tension structure that suppresses thermal displacement and supports positioning accuracy, and a short distance from the axis travel reference guide to the spindle, which restricts the influence of heat. The slideways are a horizontal single piece of scraped cast iron. Covers are stainless steel. DMG MORI also publishes thermal displacement and circularity values at cold start; request them, with the measuring conditions, when asking for an offer.
The Wasino A-18S shares the three travels of 180 mm (7.1 in), 100 mm (3.9 in) and 350 mm (13.8 in).

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 18 tools, which DMG MORI lists under process integration
- 100 mm (3.9 in) of Y travel, equal to the CTX 350 4A's 100 mm (3.9 in)
- Bar capacity of 67 mm (2.6 in)
- Pre-tension structure for positioning accuracy and reduced thermal displacement
- Single-piece scraped cast iron slideways, horizontal in layout
Limitations
- Z travel is 350 mm (13.8 in), shorter than the 495 mm (19.5 in) of the CTX 350 4A
- Rotary tool speed and power are not published, so milling capability cannot be judged from the listed data
- Spindle speed and power are not published either
- Workpiece diameter stops at 240 mm (9.4 in)

Frequently Asked Questions
01
DMG MORI lists 18 tools. A high tool count lets turning tools, drills and boring bars for more than one part stay mounted, which cuts changeover time in mixed production. Whether stations take rotary tools, and at what speed, is not published and should be asked.
02
Maximum workpiece diameter is 240 mm (9.4 in), maximum workpiece length 245 mm (9.6 in) and bar capacity 67 mm (2.6 in). The axes travel 180 mm (7.1 in) in X, 100 mm (3.9 in) in Y and 350 mm (13.8 in) in Z.
03
Three listed measures: a pre-tension structure that suppresses thermal displacement, a minimized distance between the axis travel reference guide and the spindle to restrict the effects of generated heat, and stainless steel covers for stable machining accuracy. Ask for the cold-start values DMG MORI quotes, with their conditions.
04
On travel alone, the difference is length. The CTX 350 4A has 495 mm (19.5 in) of Z, 185 mm (7.3 in) of X and 100 mm (3.9 in) of Y. The Wasino A 150Y|18 has 350 mm (13.8 in), 180 mm (7.1 in) and 100 mm (3.9 in). Parts within 245 mm (9.6 in) of length fit the Wasino.
