Overview
The DN Solutions PUMA 800 II is a two-axis heavy horizontal lathe built around a 32 in chuck: 900 mm (35 in) maximum turning diameter, 1,600 mm (63 in) maximum turning length, and a 55 kW (74 hp) spindle that produces 8,076 N·m (5,957 ft-lb) and runs to 750 rpm. It is the base model of the line, the short-bed version with a standard chuck and no driven tools.
The 32 in chuck is the point of the 800. The PUMA 700 II shares the bed, the travels, the power and the torque, but the PUMA 700 II is listed with a 24 in chuck and 1,500 rpm. The maximum turning diameter is 900 mm (35 in) on both, so the larger chuck does not buy a bigger part. It buys grip and jaw reach on parts near the top of that range, such as rings, flanges, valve bodies and wheel blanks that a smaller chuck would hold on extended jaws. The cost is half the top speed.
In the other direction, the PUMA 800 B II drops to 500 rpm with a chuck that is made to order. For most chucking work the standard model is the middle choice of the three.
X travel is 470 mm (19 in) and Z travel is 1,650 mm (65 in), with rapids of 12 m/min (472 ipm) and 16 m/min (630 ipm). The turret has 12 stations. No live tool speed appears in this column; the PUMA 800 M II is the version with 3,000 rpm driven tools. If the parts are long, the PUMA 800 L II extends turning length to 3,200 mm (126 in) with a slower 10 m/min (394 ipm) Z rapid and 22,000 kg (48,502 lb) of machine weight, against 16,500 kg (36,376 lb) here.
The installed machine measures 5,756 × 3,160 × 2,800 mm (227 × 124 × 110 in), length by width by height. DN's series material mentions a spindle through hole of up to Ø375 mm and a 200 mm Y-axis stroke, but neither is given for this model, so do not assume them.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 32 in chuck with a 900 mm (35 in) maximum turning diameter
- 8,076 N·m (5,957 ft-lb) of spindle torque from a 55 kW (74 hp) motor
- 750 rpm top speed, higher than the 500 rpm of the PUMA 800 B II
- Z rapid of 16 m/min (630 ipm) on 1,650 mm (65 in) of travel
- At 16,500 kg (36,376 lb) it is lighter than the 22,000 kg (48,502 lb) PUMA 800 L II
Limitations
- 750 rpm is half the 1,500 rpm of the PUMA 700 II, which limits surface speed on small diameters
- Turning length stops at 1,600 mm (63 in); longer shafts need the PUMA 800 L II at 3,200 mm (126 in)
- No live tool speed is listed, so off-centre drilling and milling are not part of this model
- Spindle bore is not stated for the model; the Ø375 mm through hole is a series maximum

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Chuck size and spindle speed. The PUMA 800 II has a 32 in chuck and 750 rpm; the PUMA 700 II has a 24 in chuck and 1,500 rpm. Both list a 900 mm (35 in) turning diameter, 1,600 mm (63 in) turning length, 55 kW (74 hp), 8,076 N·m (5,957 ft-lb) and 16,500 kg (36,376 lb).
02
Up to 900 mm (35 in) in diameter and 1,600 mm (63 in) in length. X travel is 470 mm (19 in) and Z travel is 1,650 mm (65 in). The table gives no maximum workpiece weight, so ask DN for the load limits between centres and in the chuck alone if the part is heavy for its size.
03
No live tool speed is listed for it. The turret has 12 stations for turning and boring tools. In the same family the PUMA 800 M II is listed with live tools at 3,000 rpm on the same bed length, so that is the model to look at when parts need cross holes or milled flats.
04
The PUMA 800 II turns 1,600 mm (63 in). The PUMA 800 L II turns 3,200 mm (126 in) on 3,235 mm (127 in) of Z travel and weighs 22,000 kg (48,502 lb). DN's series text gives 5 m as the longest turning length offered in the PUMA 600/700/800 range.
05
The listed dimensions are 5,756 × 3,160 × 2,800 mm (227 × 124 × 110 in), length by width by height, with a machine weight of 16,500 kg (36,376 lb). Add space for the operator side and for crane access over the chuck.
