Overview

The DN Solutions PUMA 1000 is a large horizontal lathe with X and Z axes only: 1,000 mm (39 in) of maximum turning diameter, 2,040 mm (80 in) of turning length and a 75 kW (101 hp) spindle. The plain PUMA 1000 name is not a single entry in DN Solutions' current lineup, which shows the machine as lettered versions, so read this page as a summary of the two spindle builds.

Those builds differ in three rows. The 500 rpm version is listed with 11,011 Nm (8,121 ft-lb) and a machine weight of 21,000 kg (46,297 lb), and corresponds to the PUMA 1000 A. The 300 rpm version is listed with 12,040 Nm (8,880 ft-lb) and 23,000 kg (50,706 lb), and corresponds to the PUMA 1000 B. Power is the same in both, so the slower spindle simply trades speed for torque. Everything else in the table is shared: 540 mm (21 in) of X travel, 2,130 mm (84 in) of Z travel, rapids of 12 m/min (472 in/min) in X and 16 m/min (630 in/min) in Z, and a 10-station turret.

Nothing in the table covers driven tools. A buyer who needs drilled or milled features on the lathe should look at the PUMA 1000 MA, which has a 12-station turret with a 3,000 rpm live-tool speed on the same travels. For someone looking at an existing machine, the first thing to establish is which spindle it has, because the 300 rpm limit decides how well it finishes small diameters. The control is listed as a Fanuc 0i-Plus with a 15 in iHMI touchscreen. Chuck size, spindle bore and tailstock data are not in the table.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

75 kW (101 hp) spindle in either a 500 rpm, 11,011 Nm (8,121 ft-lb) build or a 300 rpm, 12,040 Nm (8,880 ft-lb) build
Turns 1,000 mm (39 in) in diameter by 2,040 mm (80 in) long, on 2,130 mm (84 in) of Z travel
10-station turret on a machine of 21,000 kg (46,297 lb) or 23,000 kg (50,706 lb), depending on the spindle
Fanuc 0i-Plus control with a 15 in iHMI touchscreen

Limitations

Top speed is 500 rpm at best and 300 rpm on the higher-torque version, which limits surface speed on small diameters
No driven tools in the table; the PUMA 1000 MA adds a 3,000 rpm live-tool drive and 12 stations
Rapids of 12 m/min (472 in/min) in X and 16 m/min (630 in/min) in Z make for slow repositioning along 2,130 mm (84 in) of Z
Chuck size and spindle bore are not stated, so through-bore capacity must be confirmed for the machine in question

Best For

Heavy shafts, rolls and flanges up to 1,000 mm (39 in) in diameter Long turned parts up to 2,040 mm (80 in) Low-speed roughing with up to 12,040 Nm (8,880 ft-lb) at the spindle Turning-only work that does not need driven tools

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What is the difference between the 500 rpm and 300 rpm versions of the PUMA 1000?

Speed, torque and weight. The 500 rpm version lists 11,011 Nm (8,121 ft-lb) and 21,000 kg (46,297 lb). The 300 rpm version lists 12,040 Nm (8,880 ft-lb) and 23,000 kg (50,706 lb). Both have the 75 kW (101 hp) rating, the same travels and the 10-station turret.

02 Is the PUMA 1000 still listed by DN Solutions?

Not under this plain name. DN Solutions' current lineup shows the machine as separate lettered models such as the PUMA 1000 A, with 500 rpm and 11,011 N·m (8,121 ft-lb), and the PUMA 1000 B, with 300 rpm and 12,040 N·m (8,880 ft-lb). When checking a nameplate, match the spindle figures to find the right version.

03 Can the PUMA 1000 mill and drill?

The listed figures show a 10-station turret and no live-tool speed, so this is a turning-only configuration. The PUMA 1000 MA is the version with driven tools: 12 stations and 3,000 rpm, with the same 540 mm (21 in) of X and 2,130 mm (84 in) of Z travel.

04 How large a part fits on the PUMA 1000?

Maximum turning diameter is 1,000 mm (39 in) and maximum turning length is 2,040 mm (80 in). X travel is 540 mm (21 in) and Z travel is 2,130 mm (84 in). The table does not give a chuck size, a spindle bore or a weight limit for the workpiece, so those need to be confirmed for the specific machine.
