Overview
The DN Solutions PUMA 4100 XLMB combines a 15 in chuck and 3,150 mm (124 in) of Z travel with a 12-station turret carrying 4,000 rpm live tools. Its spindle runs to 2,000 rpm and is rated 30 kW (40 hp) and 1,611 N·m (1,188 ft-lb).
That spindle rating is the first thing to check against the job. The two-axis PUMA 4100 B has the same chuck size and the same 2,000 rpm, but lists 35 kW (47 hp) and 2,379 N·m (1,755 ft-lb), about 48% more torque. On the XLMB the milling turret arrives together with a lighter main spindle rating, so a part that is mostly heavy turning with one or two drilled holes may be better served by a turning machine and a second operation. A part with a lot of milled and drilled detail along its length is where this model earns its place.
Capacity is set by a 550 mm (22 in) maximum turning diameter and a 3,068 mm (121 in) maximum turning length. X travel is 352 mm (14 in). Only X and Z travel are listed, so there is no Y stroke to offset a cutter from the centerline, and the table says nothing about live tool power. Rapids are 16 m/min (630 ipm) in X and 20 m/min (787 ipm) in Z.
The machine weighs 12,550 kg (27,668 lb). Its listed dimensions are 7,024 × 2,276 × 2,335 mm (277 × 90 × 92 in), length by width by height, so the bay needs a clear run of more than seven metres before any allowance for loading.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 4,000 rpm live tools on a 12-station turret, with a 15 in chuck
- 3,150 mm (124 in) of Z travel and a 3,068 mm (121 in) maximum turning length
- Two more turret stations than the 10-station PUMA 4100 B
- 550 mm (22 in) maximum turning diameter with 352 mm (14 in) of X travel
Limitations
- Spindle is rated 30 kW (40 hp) and 1,611 N·m (1,188 ft-lb), below the 35 kW (47 hp) and 2,379 N·m (1,755 ft-lb) of the two-axis PUMA 4100 B
- Spindle speed is capped at 2,000 rpm, which limits finishing speed on small diameters
- No Y-axis travel listed; milling stays on the spindle centerline plane
- Live tool power and torque are not given in DN Solutions' table

Frequently Asked Questions
01
DN Solutions' table does not explain it; it only shows the figures. The XLMB lists 30 kW (40 hp) and 1,611 N·m (1,188 ft-lb), and the PUMA 4100 B lists 35 kW (47 hp) and 2,379 N·m (1,755 ft-lb), both at 2,000 rpm with a 15 in chuck. Treat the two as different spindles when estimating roughing cuts, and ask DN Solutions for the torque curve if the job is close to the limit.
02
A 12-station turret with a live tool speed of 4,000 rpm. The table does not list the tool shank system, the live tool motor power or how many of the stations are driven, so those need to come from the quotation.
03
Maximum turning diameter is 550 mm (22 in) and maximum turning length is 3,068 mm (121 in), on 3,150 mm (124 in) of Z travel and 352 mm (14 in) of X travel. Among the 15 in machines with live tools, the PUMA 5100 LYA is the mid-length alternative: 2,050 mm (81 in) of turning length on 2,100 mm (83 in) of Z travel, at the same 550 mm (22 in) diameter.
04
No Y travel is listed for this model; the table gives X travel of 352 mm (14 in) and Z travel of 3,150 mm (124 in) only. With driven tools but no Y stroke, cross holes and keyways are cut with the tool on the plane through the spindle centerline. A job that needs off-center milling should be quoted on a model whose own table shows Y travel.
