How much does the DN Solutions Puma 2100SY II cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a mill-turn / multi-tasking machine in this class — not a quote from DN Solutions. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The DN Solutions Puma 2100SY II is an 8 in chuck horizontal turning center with a Y-axis, a 12-station turret with rotary tools and a second spindle, on the short bed of its family: 520 mm (20 in) of turning length and 406 mm (16 in) of turning diameter. The main spindle is rated 5,000 rpm, 22 kW (29 hp) and 358 N·m (264 ft-lb).
Travels are 260 mm (10 in) in X, 590 mm (23 in) in Z and 105 mm (4 in) in Y, with rapid traverse listed at 30 m/min (1,181 ipm). The Y stroke is what separates this machine from a plain C-axis lathe. Off-centre holes, flats, keyways and pockets can be cut with the tool moving in a straight line instead of being interpolated against spindle rotation. At 105 mm (4 in) the stroke is sized for features on a turned part, not for plate-style milling. Rotary tools run at up to 5,000 rpm, which helps with small drills and end mills where surface speed is hard to reach.
The second spindle is rated 6,000 rpm and 15 kW (20 hp), and the table gives no torque for it. It is the smaller of the two, meant for back-facing, drilling and finishing after the transfer and not for repeating a heavy first-side cut.
Three neighbours share the 8 in chuck, the 22 kW (29 hp) spindle and the 105 mm (4 in) Y-axis. The PUMA 2100 Y II has the same 520 mm (20 in) turning length at 5,550 kg (12,236 lb). The PUMA 2100 LSY II stretches turning length to 760 mm (30 in) and Z travel to 830 mm (33 in) at 6,500 kg (14,330 lb). The Puma 2100SY II itself weighs 6,000 kg (13,228 lb) and occupies 3,190 × 1,945 mm (126 × 77 in) of floor at a height of 2,163 mm (85 in). For a 10 in chuck and 599 N·m (442 ft-lb), the Puma 2600SY II is the next step up.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Y-axis with 105 mm (4 in) of travel for off-centre drilling and milling on the turned part
- Second spindle rated 6,000 rpm and 15 kW (20 hp) for back-side operations in the same cycle
- 12-station turret with rotary tools running to 5,000 rpm
- Main spindle delivers 22 kW (29 hp) and 358 N·m (264 ft-lb) at up to 5,000 rpm
- Compact for a Y-axis lathe with two spindles: 3,190 × 1,945 mm (126 × 77 in) of floor and 6,000 kg (13,228 lb)
Limitations
- Turning length is 520 mm (20 in); the PUMA 2100 LSY II offers 760 mm (30 in) for longer shafts
- The second spindle has 15 kW (20 hp) against 22 kW (29 hp) on the main spindle, and no torque figure is listed for it
- 358 N·m (264 ft-lb) on an 8 in chuck; the Puma 2600SY II provides 599 N·m (442 ft-lb) with a 10 in chuck
- Y travel of 105 mm (4 in) restricts milling to features close to the part's centreline

Frequently Asked Questions
01
105 mm (4 in). X travel is 260 mm (10 in) and Z travel is 590 mm (23 in), with rapid traverse listed at 30 m/min (1,181 ipm). The Y stroke is meant for milling and drilling features off the centreline of a turned part, such as flats, slots and cross holes.
02
The main spindle is rated 5,000 rpm, 22 kW (29 hp) and 358 N·m (264 ft-lb). The second spindle is rated 6,000 rpm and 15 kW (20 hp), and the table gives no torque for it. It is the lighter of the two, so plan the heavy cuts for the first side.
03
Bed length. The PUMA 2100 LSY II has 760 mm (30 in) of turning length and 830 mm (33 in) of Z travel, and weighs 6,500 kg (14,330 lb). The Puma 2100SY II has 520 mm (20 in) of turning length, 590 mm (23 in) of Z travel and weighs 6,000 kg (13,228 lb). Chuck size, main-spindle rating, Y travel and turret stations are the same.
04
The turret has 12 stations and rotary tools run at up to 5,000 rpm. The table does not give a power or torque figure for the rotary tool drive, so if the job involves heavy milling instead of drilling and light end-mill work, ask DN Solutions for that rating.
05
It is 3,190 mm (126 in) long, 1,945 mm (77 in) wide and 2,163 mm (85 in) high, and weighs 6,000 kg (13,228 lb). Those figures are for the machine itself; leave space beyond them for chip removal and for access to the rear and the electrical cabinet.
