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

Overview

The DN Solutions PUMA 3100 XLY is the two-metre member of the PUMA 3100 Y-axis lathes: 2,125 mm (84 in) of maximum turning length, 2,190 mm (86 in) of Z travel, a 12 in chuck and 420 mm (17 in) of turning diameter. A 12-station turret carries live tools that run to 5,000 rpm, and Y travel is 130 mm (5 in).

Bed length is the one headline figure that separates it from its neighbours, so the choice comes down to the longest part you expect to run. The PUMA 3100 LY turns 1,285 mm (51 in) on 1,350 mm (53 in) of Z and weighs 8,000 kg (17,637 lb). The PUMA 3100 XLY goes to 2,125 mm (84 in) at 10,800 kg (23,810 lb). Bed that is never used still occupies the floor, and DN lists this machine at 5,615 × 2,280 × 2,315 mm (221 × 90 × 91 in) as length, width and height.

Nothing changes at the spindle. It is rated 26 kW (35 hp) and 1,123 N·m (828 ft-lb) with a 2,800 rpm top speed, the same as the PUMA 3100 LY. A buyer who wants the 30 kW (40 hp), 3,000 rpm rating finds it on the PUMA 3100 LSY, but only with 1,285 mm (51 in) of turning length.

What a Y axis buys on a part this long is alignment. A keyway at each end of a shaft, wrench flats, an off-centre cross hole: cut in the turning setup, they stay in a fixed relationship to the turned diameters. Done separately, a two-metre shaft has to be moved to a large mill and picked up again. Rapids are listed at 30 m/min (1,181 ipm), which keeps the turret's trips along the bed short.

The table is silent on the tailstock and on steady rests. On work near 2,125 mm (84 in) with a diameter limit of 420 mm (17 in), support decides what can be cut, so raise it early with DN.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

2,125 mm (84 in) of turning length with 130 mm (5 in) of Y travel along the bed
Live tools to 5,000 rpm on a 12-station turret
30 m/min (1,181 ipm) rapid traverse over 2,190 mm (86 in) of Z travel
1,123 N·m (828 ft-lb) spindle, the same rating as the shorter PUMA 3100 LY
Fits long parts the PUMA 3100 LY cannot, at 10,800 kg (23,810 lb)

Limitations

Spindle is 26 kW (35 hp) and 2,800 rpm; the 30 kW (40 hp) rating of the PUMA 3100 LSY is not listed at this length
5,615 mm (221 in) long, so it needs a bay to match
Turning diameter is limited to 420 mm (17 in)
No tailstock or steady rest figures in the table for a machine whose parts need both

Best For

Shafts between the 1,285 mm (51 in) limit of the PUMA 3100 LY and 2,125 mm (84 in) Long parts with keyways, flats or cross holes that must align with turned diameters Steel shaft work up to 420 mm (17 in) in diameter needing 1,123 N·m (828 ft-lb) Shops that want milling on long parts without moving them to a large mill

Frequently Asked Questions

01 Where does the PUMA 3100 XLY sit in the PUMA 3100 Y-axis range?

Between the PUMA 3100 LY and the PUMA 3100 ULY. The PUMA 3100 LY turns 1,285 mm (51 in), the PUMA 3100 XLY turns 2,125 mm (84 in) and the PUMA 3100 ULY turns 3,125 mm (123 in). Chuck size, turning diameter, Y travel, spindle rating and live-tool speed are the same on all three. Weight rises with the bed, from 8,000 kg (17,637 lb) for the PUMA 3100 LY through 10,800 kg (23,810 lb) to 12,300 kg (27,117 lb) for the PUMA 3100 ULY.

02 What are the travels of the PUMA 3100 XLY?

X travel is 293 mm (12 in), Y travel is 130 mm (5 in) and Z travel is 2,190 mm (86 in). Maximum turning length is 2,125 mm (84 in) and maximum turning diameter is 420 mm (17 in). Rapid traverse is listed as 30 m/min (1,181 ipm).

03 Is the spindle different from the shorter models?

No. The PUMA 3100 XLY lists 26 kW (35 hp), 1,123 N·m (828 ft-lb) and 2,800 rpm, the same figures as the PUMA 3100 LY and the short-bed PUMA 3100 Y. The higher 30 kW (40 hp), 3,000 rpm rating appears on the PUMA 3100 LSY and PUMA 3100 SY, neither of which reaches this turning length.

04 What should be checked before ordering for long shaft work?

How the part is supported. The table gives 2,125 mm (84 in) of turning length and 420 mm (17 in) of turning diameter but no tailstock or steady rest data, and slender parts cannot be cut to size without support. Also confirm live-tool power, which the table does not list, and plan for a machine 5,615 mm (221 in) long weighing 10,800 kg (23,810 lb).
