Overview
The DN Solutions PUMA 800 M II is the short-bed, milling-capable lathe of the PUMA 800 II line: a 32 in chuck, 900 mm (35 in) maximum turning diameter and 1,600 mm (63 in) maximum turning length, with live tools at up to 3,000 rpm on a 12-station turret.
Its natural work is chucked parts whose turned surfaces are followed by drilled or milled features: flanges with bolt circles, hubs with keyways, valve and pump bodies with ports. Such parts are short relative to their diameter, so the 1,650 mm (65 in) of Z travel is rarely the constraint and the faster Z rapid of the short bed is an advantage: 16 m/min (630 ipm), where the PUMA 800 L II has 10 m/min (394 ipm). X travel is 470 mm (19 in) with a 12 m/min (472 ipm) rapid.
The main spindle delivers 55 kW (74 hp) and 8,076 N·m (5,957 ft-lb) and is limited to 750 rpm. Every turning figure of the PUMA 800 II matches this column; what the M adds is the live tool speed row. The PUMA 700 II runs to 1,500 rpm with a 24 in chuck, so smaller-diameter parts that still need this torque are better served there.
Buyers should be clear about what is and is not stated for the driven tools. The speed is listed. Their power and torque are not, and the model's column has no Y travel, although DN mentions a 200 mm Y-axis stroke in its description of the series. A drilled bolt circle or a slot on the centreline needs none of that; an offset pocket or a flat milled to size across a face does.
The machine weighs 16,500 kg (36,376 lb) and measures 5,756 × 3,160 × 2,800 mm (227 × 124 × 110 in), length by width by height. It is the lighter of the bed lengths: the long-bed PUMA 800 L II weighs 22,000 kg (48,502 lb).

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Live tools at up to 3,000 rpm on a 12-station turret
- 32 in chuck and 900 mm (35 in) maximum turning diameter for large flanges and hubs
- 16 m/min (630 ipm) Z rapid, against 10 m/min (394 ipm) on the PUMA 800 L II
- 8,076 N·m (5,957 ft-lb) of spindle torque at 55 kW (74 hp)
- 16,500 kg (36,376 lb), lighter than the 22,000 kg (48,502 lb) PUMA 800 L II
Limitations
- Main spindle tops out at 750 rpm; the PUMA 700 II reaches 1,500 rpm
- Turning length is limited to 1,600 mm (63 in)
- Driven-tool power and torque are not listed, so milling capacity cannot be judged from the table
- Y travel is not in this model's column; the 200 mm stroke DN mentions is a series statement

Frequently Asked Questions
01
A live tool speed of 3,000 rpm. The PUMA 800 II column is otherwise the same: 32 in chuck, 900 mm (35 in) turning diameter, 1,600 mm (63 in) turning length, 750 rpm, 55 kW (74 hp), 8,076 N·m (5,957 ft-lb), 12 stations and 16,500 kg (36,376 lb).
02
Not on the evidence of its table, which lists X travel of 470 mm (19 in) and Z travel of 1,650 mm (65 in) and no Y travel. DN refers to a 200 mm Y-axis stroke when describing the PUMA 600/700/800 series. Whether this model has it is a question for DN; drilling on a bolt circle and centreline slots do not depend on it.
03
On diameters near the 900 mm (35 in) maximum, no. On small bores and journals it is, because cutting speed falls with diameter. The 750 rpm limit applies to the main spindle only; the live tools have their own 3,000 rpm rating. The PUMA 700 II offers 1,500 rpm with a 24 in chuck if speed matters more than chuck size.
04
When the part is longer than 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, with a 10 m/min (394 ipm) Z rapid and a weight of 22,000 kg (48,502 lb), and its column has no live tool speed.
05
DN lists 5,756 mm (227 in) of length, 3,160 mm (124 in) of width and 2,800 mm (110 in) of height, and a machine weight of 16,500 kg (36,376 lb). Leave crane access above the chuck, since parts of this size are not loaded by hand.
