Overview
The DN Solutions PUMA 700 XL II is one of the longest production CNC lathes in the DN Solutions catalog. With 5,050 mm (199 in) of turning length, 900 mm (35 in) max turning diameter, and 55 kW (74 hp) driving 8,076 Nm (5,957 ft-lb) of torque through a 24-inch chuck, it handles parts that most manufacturers can't even fixture.
This isn't a machine you buy unless your work demands it. We're talking about turning components approaching 5 meters long — think large marine propeller shafts, heavy mining equipment shafts, power generation rotor assemblies, and long oil and gas drill strings. The spindle runs at up to 1,500 RPM, providing reasonable surface speeds even on the largest diameters, while the torque output handles deep cuts in the toughest materials without backing off.
X-axis travel is 470 mm, Z extends a massive 5,100 mm, and rapids run 12 m/min on X and 10 m/min on Z. The 12-station turret provides tool variety for complex operations. Box-way construction on all axes is mandatory at this scale — you need every kilogram of the 26,000 kg (57,320 lb) frame working as dampening against the forces generated during heavy cutting.
At nearly 10 meters long and over 26 tonnes, the PUMA 700 XL II requires an engineered concrete foundation, professional rigging, and a facility layout that can accommodate its footprint. The FANUC control handles the programming side with standard G-code and conversational options. For the shops that need this level of capability, there aren't many alternatives at any price.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 5,050 mm (199 in) turning length handles the longest production parts in heavy industry
- 900 mm max turning diameter with 24-inch chuck covers the largest workpieces
- 8,076 Nm of spindle torque enables aggressive material removal in the toughest materials
- 55 kW (74 hp) spindle provides the power for sustained heavy cutting
- 26,000 kg mass and box-way construction create an exceptionally stable cutting platform
- 12-station turret provides tool capacity for complex multi-operation parts
- FANUC control with proven reliability at the highest levels of production turning
Limitations
- Nearly 10-meter footprint requires dedicated floor space and facility planning
- 26,000 kg weight demands engineered foundations — standard shop floors won't support it
- 10 m/min Z rapids across 5 meters of travel means significant non-cutting time on tool changes
- Price point exceeds $380K new — major capital investment
- Very limited resale market due to specialized nature
- No live tooling or Y-axis — strictly a heavy-duty turning specialist

Frequently Asked Questions
01
New PUMA 700 XL II machines typically run $380,000-$520,000 depending on options and configuration. These are significant capital investments. Used machines are rare on the market but would sell in the $160,000-$320,000 range depending on condition.
02
At 26,000 kg and nearly 10 meters long, you need an engineered concrete foundation designed specifically for this machine's load distribution. Work with DN Solutions' installation team and your facility engineer to spec the foundation depth, reinforcement, and vibration isolation requirements.
03
You'll almost certainly need one. With 5 meters of turning length, a hydraulic steady rest is essential for preventing workpiece deflection on long, slender parts. Multiple steady rests may be needed for very long workpieces. DN Solutions offers options designed for the 700 XL series.
04
The PUMA 800 series uses the same 900 mm swing but with different spindle configurations and bed lengths. The 700 XL II has the longest bed in its class at 5,050 mm turning length. The 800 series offers various chuck and speed options for different application requirements.
