Overview
On the DN Solutions PUMA 5100 LMA, a 12-station turret with 4,000 rpm live tools works along 2,155 mm (85 in) of Z travel, in front of a 15 in chuck and a 2,000 rpm spindle. Maximum turning diameter is 650 mm (26 in) and maximum turning length 2,042 mm (80 in).
Its closest relative in the table is the two-axis PUMA 5100 LA, which has the same chuck size, spindle speed, travels and 37 kW (50 hp) motor rating. Two things differ. The PUMA 5100 LA has a 10-station turret without live tools, and it lists 3,280 N·m (2,419 ft-lb) of spindle torque where the LMA lists 2,432 N·m (1,794 ft-lb), about 26% less. Turning length also drops from the PUMA 5100 LA's 2,082 mm (82 in) to 2,042 mm (80 in). The milling capability is therefore paid for in roughing torque, and a buyer should check the heaviest turning cut in the job against the lower figure.
The driven tools suit shafts that need keyways, flats, cross holes and end drilling without a trip to a mill. The table gives 362 mm (14 in) of X travel and no Y travel, so those operations happen on the plane through the spindle centerline. Live tool power and torque are not listed. Rapids are 16 m/min (630 ipm) in X and 20 m/min (787 ipm) in Z.
For installation, the listed dimensions are 5,879 mm (231 in) long, 2,275 mm (90 in) wide and 2,272 mm (89 in) high. Confirm the machine weight with DN Solutions before designing the foundation. As a guide, the two-axis PUMA 5100 LA on the same travels is listed at 11,550 kg (25,463 lb).

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 12-station turret with 4,000 rpm live tools on 2,155 mm (85 in) of Z travel
- 650 mm (26 in) maximum turning diameter, larger than the 550 mm (22 in) of the PUMA 4100 B and PUMA 4100 C
- 2,000 rpm spindle with 37 kW (50 hp) and 2,432 N·m (1,794 ft-lb)
- Two more turret stations than the 10-station PUMA 5100 LA
Limitations
- Spindle torque is about 26% below the 3,280 N·m (2,419 ft-lb) of the two-axis PUMA 5100 LA
- No Y travel listed, so off-center milling is outside what the table supports
- Live tool power and torque are not published in the table
- The 15 in chuck is small for parts near the 650 mm (26 in) maximum turning diameter

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Driven tools and two turret stations. The PUMA 5100 LMA has a 12-station turret with 4,000 rpm live tools; the PUMA 5100 LA has 10 stations and no live tool speed in its column. In exchange, spindle torque is 2,432 N·m (1,794 ft-lb) instead of the PUMA 5100 LA's 3,280 N·m (2,419 ft-lb), and maximum turning length is 2,042 mm (80 in) instead of 2,082 mm (82 in).
02
The table does not support that. It lists X travel of 362 mm (14 in) and Z travel of 2,155 mm (85 in), with no Y axis. On the LMA, plan for milling and drilling through the spindle centerline: cross holes, keyways and end-face work with the 4,000 rpm live tools. A part with offset flats or pockets needs a model whose own column shows Y travel.
03
The listed dimensions are 5,879 × 2,275 × 2,272 mm (231 × 90 × 89 in), length by width by height. Ask DN Solutions for a confirmed installed weight before planning the foundation or the lift. As a reference point, the two-axis PUMA 5100 LA with the same 2,155 mm (85 in) of Z travel is listed at 11,550 kg (25,463 lb).
04
A 2,000 rpm spindle rated 37 kW (50 hp) and 2,432 N·m (1,794 ft-lb), with a 15 in chuck. For heavier turning, the PUMA 5100 B lists 45 kW (60 hp) and 4,041 N·m (2,980 ft-lb) at 1,500 rpm, but with only 1,105 mm (44 in) of Z travel and without live tools.
