Overview
The DMG Mori Wasino G 100M|480 is a super-high-precision flat tooling CNC turning center with milling capability, handling workpieces up to 285 mm (11.2 in) diameter and 280 mm (11 in) length. The M designation adds driven tool milling, drilling, and tapping to the precision turning platform, enabling more complete part machining in a single setup.
The machine shares the 480 mm (18.9 in) X-axis travel and 285 mm (11.2 in) Z-axis travel of the standard G 100|480, with bar capacity of 38 mm (1.5 in). The key differentiator is the integrated milling capability that allows off-center features to be machined on the same platform that delivers sub-micron turning precision.
Wasino's precision platform delivers cold-start thermal displacement of 0.05 microinches on diameter with circularity of 0.01 microinches. The symmetrical bed structure, induction-hardened horizontal slideways integrated into the cast iron bed, and flat tooling architecture all contribute to these precision numbers. The rigid bed with low center of gravity provides superior damping.
Adding milling capability to this ultra-precision turning platform is significant. Parts that previously required two setups, one for precision turning and another for milling features, can now be completed on a single machine. This eliminates re-chucking errors and reduces work-in-process inventory. The trade-off is that the milling capability adds complexity and cost.
The G 100M|480 targets production applications where both sub-micron turning accuracy and milling features are required on the same part. Hydraulic valve bodies with cross-drilled ports, medical implant components with milled flats, and optical housings with precision bores and mounting features are natural applications. The Fanuc control handles both turning and milling programming. Specs sourced from DMG Mori published data.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Milling capability on a sub-micron precision turning platform eliminates re-chucking errors from secondary setups
- Sub-micron precision with 0.05 µin thermal displacement and 0.01 µin circularity maintained even with milling option
- 480 mm X-axis travel provides extended range for complex profiles and multi-tool flat tooling configurations
- Induction-hardened horizontal slideways deliver both turning precision and milling rigidity on the same platform
- Complete part machining capability reduces work-in-process inventory and total production lead time
- Low center of gravity and cast iron construction provide vibration damping for both turning and milling operations
Limitations
- Milling option adds significant cost premium over the standard G 100|480 turning-only model
- Milling performance will not match a dedicated machining center for heavy material removal
- Programming complexity increases with combined turning and milling operations in the same setup
- Flat tooling with milling stations further reduces the number of available turning tool positions

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The M adds milling capability, including driven tool stations for drilling, milling, and tapping off-center features. This enables parts with both precision turned surfaces and milled features to be completed in one setup, eliminating the re-chucking errors that degrade accuracy.
02
The sub-micron precision specifications (0.05 µin thermal displacement, 0.01 µin circularity) are maintained on the M variant. The milling option adds capability without compromising the core turning precision of the platform.
03
The milling capability is designed for precision milling operations compatible with the flat tooling platform, not heavy material removal. Think cross-drilled holes, milled flats, keyways, and light profiling. For aggressive hogging, use a dedicated machining center.
04
If your parts require both precision turning and milling features, yes. The ability to eliminate a secondary milling setup saves re-chucking errors, reduces WIP, and shortens lead time. If your parts are turning-only, the standard G 100|480 at a lower price is the right choice.
