Overview
Adding live tools to the long-bed, 12 in PUMA 4100 gives the DN Solutions PUMA 4100 LMA. It turns 2,060 mm (81 in) in length and 550 mm (22 in) in diameter on 2,155 mm (85 in) of Z travel, with a 12-station turret whose rotary tools run to 4,000 rpm and a main spindle that reaches 3,000 rpm.
The comparison that matters is with the two-axis PUMA 4100 LA, because the two tables differ in more than the live-tool row. The PUMA 4100 LA lists 35 kW (47 hp) and 1,584 N·m (1,168 ft-lb); the PUMA 4100 LMA lists 37 kW (50 hp) and 1,024 N·m (755 ft-lb). Slightly more power, then, but markedly less torque, under the same 3,000 rpm ceiling. Turning length comes down from 2,124 mm (84 in) on the PUMA 4100 LA to 2,060 mm (81 in), and weight goes up from the 10,900 kg (24,030 lb) of the PUMA 4100 LA to 11,050 kg (24,361 lb). Anyone moving a heavy roughing job from the two-axis machine to this one should check the cut against 1,024 N·m (755 ft-lb) first.
What the milling turret buys is a finished shaft. Keyways, cross holes, drilled and tapped ends and slots through the centreline can be cut where the part was turned, which on a two-metre workpiece saves a crane move and a second alignment. There is no Y travel in the table, so the tools work on centre: a keyway is cut to the width of the cutter, and off-centre features are out of reach.
Live-tool power and torque are not listed, only the 4,000 rpm speed. X travel is 352 mm (14 in), rapids are 16 m/min (630 ipm) on X and 20 m/min (787 ipm) on Z, and the machine is listed at 5,774 × 2,275 × 2,272 mm (227 × 90 × 89 in) as length, width and height.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Live tools to 4,000 rpm on a 12-station turret, on a bed that turns 2,060 mm (81 in)
- 3,000 rpm main spindle rated 37 kW (50 hp)
- 550 mm (22 in) of turning diameter with 352 mm (14 in) of X travel
- Turning and on-centre milling of a long shaft in one setup, without a second machine
Limitations
- Main spindle torque is 1,024 N·m (755 ft-lb), against 1,584 N·m (1,168 ft-lb) on the two-axis PUMA 4100 LA
- No Y travel in the table, so milling is limited to the spindle centreline
- Turning length of 2,060 mm (81 in) is shorter than the 2,124 mm (84 in) of the PUMA 4100 LA
- Live-tool power and torque are not given in the table

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The PUMA 4100 LMA adds a 4,000 rpm live-tool speed. Its main spindle lists 37 kW (50 hp) and 1,024 N·m (755 ft-lb), where the PUMA 4100 LA lists 35 kW (47 hp) and 1,584 N·m (1,168 ft-lb). Turning length is 2,060 mm (81 in) against 2,124 mm (84 in). Both have a 12 in chuck, 3,000 rpm, 12 turret stations and 2,155 mm (85 in) of Z travel.
02
The table lists X and Z travel and no Y travel, so the rotary tools cut on the spindle centreline. That covers radial and axial drilling and tapping and slots through the centre. Flats held to a width and off-centre holes need a Y axis, which this table does not show, so those features stay on a machining center.
03
1,024 N·m (755 ft-lb), from a 37 kW (50 hp) rating, with a top speed of 3,000 rpm. That is the lowest torque of the PUMA 4100 models compared on this page: the PUMA 4100 LA lists 1,584 N·m (1,168 ft-lb) and the PUMA 4100 B lists 2,379 N·m (1,755 ft-lb). Size roughing cuts on large diameters accordingly.
04
Machine weight is 11,050 kg (24,361 lb). DN lists 5,774 × 2,275 × 2,272 mm (227 × 90 × 89 in) as length, width and height. The table gives no tailstock or steady rest data, and a part near 2,060 mm (81 in) will need both considered.
