How much does the DN Solutions PUMA 5100 XLYA cost?
Estimated price range
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 5100 XLYA is a long-bed Y-axis turning center: 3,150 mm (124 in) of Z travel, 150 mm (6 in) of Y travel, a 15 in chuck and a 12-station turret with 4,000 rpm live tools. It weighs 16,000 kg (35,274 lb).
The Y axis is the reason to choose it. With 150 mm (6 in) of stroke the driven tools can leave the spindle centerline, so keyways can be cut to width with an end mill, flats can be milled true and holes can be drilled off-center without a second machine. On a shaft approaching the 3,070 mm (121 in) maximum turning length, each avoided re-setup is a crane lift and an alignment job saved. The stroke is small next to the 550 mm (22 in) maximum turning diameter, so it serves features near the axis of the part, not milling across the full width of a large face.
The main spindle runs to 2,000 rpm with 37 kW (50 hp) and 2,432 N·m (1,794 ft-lb). The PUMA 5100 LYA has the same spindle, chuck and turret figures with 2,100 mm (83 in) of Z travel and weighs 13,000 kg (28,660 lb), so the XLYA offers 50% more Z travel for about 23% more machine weight. If the 15 in chuck is too small, the PUMA 5100 XLYB carries a 21 in chuck and 2,958 N·m (2,182 ft-lb) at 1,500 rpm on the same travels.
DN Solutions gives one rapid traverse figure for this model, 20 m/min (787 ipm), without splitting it by axis. Maximum turning diameter is 550 mm (22 in) and X travel 355 mm (14 in). The machine is 7,302 mm (287 in) long, 2,632 mm (104 in) wide and 2,937 mm (116 in) high, which makes headroom and the route into the building part of the purchase decision.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 150 mm (6 in) of Y travel for off-center milling and drilling with 4,000 rpm live tools
- 3,150 mm (124 in) of Z travel, 50% more than the PUMA 5100 LYA's 2,100 mm (83 in)
- 2,432 N·m (1,794 ft-lb) and 37 kW (50 hp) at up to 2,000 rpm
- 12-station turret and a 15 in chuck with a 550 mm (22 in) maximum turning diameter
Limitations
- 16,000 kg (35,274 lb) on 7,302 × 2,632 mm (287 × 104 in) of floor, and 2,937 mm (116 in) high
- Y travel of 150 mm (6 in) is modest against the 550 mm (22 in) maximum turning diameter, which limits how far off-center a feature can sit
- Rapid traverse is given as a single 20 m/min (787 ipm) figure with no per-axis values
- Live tool power and torque are not in the table

Frequently Asked Questions
01
150 mm (6 in), in DN Solutions' table for this model. The PUMA 5100 XLYB lists the same 150 mm (6 in) on the same bed. Plan fixtures and tool paths around that stroke and ask DN Solutions how it is divided above and below the centerline, since the table gives the total only.
02
Chuck and spindle. The PUMA 5100 XLYA has a 15 in chuck and a 2,000 rpm spindle with 37 kW (50 hp) and 2,432 N·m (1,794 ft-lb). The PUMA 5100 XLYB has a 21 in chuck and a 1,500 rpm spindle with 45 kW (60 hp) and 2,958 N·m (2,182 ft-lb), and its maximum turning length is 3,040 mm (120 in) against 3,070 mm (121 in). Travels, turret and live tool speed are listed the same.
03
The PUMA 5100 LYA has 2,100 mm (83 in) of Z travel, a 2,050 mm (81 in) maximum turning length and a weight of 13,000 kg (28,660 lb). The PUMA 5100 XLYA has 3,150 mm (124 in) of Z, turns 3,070 mm (121 in) and weighs 16,000 kg (35,274 lb). Both list a 15 in chuck, 2,000 rpm, 37 kW (50 hp), 2,432 N·m (1,794 ft-lb) and a 12-station turret with 4,000 rpm live tools.
04
The machine itself is 7,302 mm (287 in) long, 2,632 mm (104 in) wide and 2,937 mm (116 in) high. Add room to load a shaft of up to 3,070 mm (121 in) by crane and to reach the turret and the rear of the machine. The 16,000 kg (35,274 lb) machine weight should go to whoever designs the foundation.
