Overview

The DN Solutions PUMA 5100 XLA is the extra-long-bed variant of the 5100 heavy-duty platform, pairing a 15-inch chuck with over 3 meters of turning length. With 3,082 mm (121 in) of usable turning length and 650 mm (26 in) of swing, it targets shops that routinely handle the longest shafts, rollers, and cylindrical components in heavy industry.

The spindle delivers 37 kW (50 hp) and 3,280 Nm (2,419 ft-lb) of torque at up to 2,000 RPM. That's the same spindle package as the 5100 LA, now backed by 3,150 mm of Z-axis travel. The 2,000 RPM ceiling offers better surface speed flexibility than the lower-speed variants, making the XLA versatile across a range of diameters while still having the torque to rough aggressively.

X-axis travel is 362 mm with Z at 3,150 mm. Rapids run 16 m/min on X and 20 m/min on Z. The 10-station turret handles production tooling needs, and box-way construction on both axes delivers the stability that long-bed heavy turning demands. The FANUC control provides straightforward programming.

At 12,550 kg (27,668 lb) and over 7 meters long, the XLA is a serious commitment of floor space and foundation. But when your work includes long propeller shafts, mining equipment, heavy rollers, or industrial components over 2.5 meters, there's no substitute for having the Z-travel to machine them in one setup. The PUMA 5100 XLA eliminates the need for multiple setups or undersize machines on long-part work. Specs sourced from DN Solutions published data.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

3,082 mm (121 in) turning length handles the longest shafts and rollers in heavy industry
650 mm swing accommodates large-diameter parts alongside the extended Z-travel
2,000 RPM spindle speed provides better surface speed flexibility than lower-RPM variants
3,280 Nm torque handles aggressive roughing in steel and cast iron
Box-way construction and 12,550 kg mass ensure stability on long, heavy cuts
15-inch chuck balances clamping force with speed versatility
FANUC control with universal industry support

Limitations

7+ meter overall length demands significant floor space and shop layout planning
2,000 RPM ceiling still limits high-speed work on small diameters
No live tooling or Y-axis — secondary operations need a different machine
10-station turret limits tool variety
12,550 kg weight requires reinforced flooring and professional installation

Best For

Shops turning shafts and rollers over 2.5 meters long in the 650 mm swing class Marine and shipbuilding manufacturers producing propeller shafts and long drive components Mining equipment manufacturers machining long heavy-duty shafts Power generation shops turning turbine shafts and long generator components Heavy equipment manufacturers needing single-setup capability for long cylindrical parts

Frequently Asked Questions

01 How does the PUMA 5100 XLA compare to the 5100 LA?

Both use the same 15-inch chuck and 37 kW spindle with 3,280 Nm torque at 2,000 RPM. The XLA adds roughly 1 meter of Z-travel (3,150 mm vs 2,155 mm), extending turning length from 2,082 mm to 3,082 mm. The XLA is about 1.2 meters longer overall and 1,000 kg heavier.

02 What does a PUMA 5100 XLA cost?

New PUMA 5100 XLA machines typically run $195,000-$260,000 depending on options. The extra-long bed commands a premium over the standard long-bed LA variant. Used machines sell in the $85,000-$160,000 range.

03 Do I need a steady rest for the XLA?

For most long-part applications, yes. With over 3 meters of turning length, a hydraulic steady rest is essential for preventing workpiece deflection on slender shafts. DN Solutions offers steady rest options designed for the 5100 XL-series machines.

04 What's the longest part I can machine?

The maximum turning length is 3,082 mm (121 in). With tailstock support, you can machine shafts up to that length between centers. Actual achievable length depends on tooling clearance and workholding configuration.
