Overview
At 5,050 mm (199 in), the DN Solutions PUMA 800 XL II has the longest turning length in its family, matched to a 32 in chuck and a 900 mm (35 in) maximum turning diameter. Z travel is 5,100 mm (201 in). DN's series summary puts the maximum turning length of the PUMA 600/700/800 range at 5 m, and this is a bed that provides it.
It is a turning-only machine. The column lists a 12-station turret and no live tool speed, so the work is long rolls, shafts, columns and tubes that are finished by turning, boring and threading. The spindle is rated 55 kW (74 hp) and 8,076 N·m (5,957 ft-lb) at up to 750 rpm.
Going from one bed length to the next is not free. The PUMA 800 L II turns 3,200 mm (126 in) and weighs 22,000 kg (48,502 lb). The XL weighs 26,000 kg (57,320 lb) and is 9,904 mm (390 in) long, 2,955 mm (116 in) wide and 2,855 mm (112 in) high. Its Z rapid is 10 m/min (394 ipm), slower than the 16 m/min (630 ipm) of the short-bed PUMA 800 II; X rapid is 12 m/min (472 ipm) and X travel is 470 mm (19 in).
A five-metre part in a lathe is as much a support problem as a cutting problem. A slender shaft of that length will sag and chatter without steady rests, and a heavy one loads the chuck and centres hard. None of that is described in DN's table: there is no tailstock row, no steady rest, no maximum workpiece weight and no spindle bore for this model. The Ø375 mm through hole DN mentions is the largest in the series, not a figure for the XL. Anyone quoting work near the 5,050 mm limit should get those answers first.
For a smaller chuck and more speed, the PUMA 700 II line offers 24 in and 1,500 rpm with the same listed power and torque.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 5,050 mm (199 in) maximum turning length on 5,100 mm (201 in) of Z travel
- 32 in chuck and a 900 mm (35 in) maximum turning diameter
- 55 kW (74 hp) spindle with 8,076 N·m (5,957 ft-lb) for heavy cuts on large diameters
- Turns 5,050 mm (199 in) where the PUMA 800 L II stops at 3,200 mm (126 in)
Limitations
- 9,904 mm (390 in) long and 26,000 kg (57,320 lb): a building and foundation decision as much as a machine decision
- 750 rpm spindle limit keeps surface speed low on small diameters
- Z rapid of 10 m/min (394 ipm) over a 5,100 mm (201 in) axis makes long repositioning moves slow
- Steady rests, tailstock and workpiece weight limits are not listed, and the column has no live tool speed

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The maximum turning length is 5,050 mm (199 in), with 5,100 mm (201 in) of Z travel. That corresponds to the 5 m DN gives as the longest turning length in the PUMA 600/700/800 series. Maximum turning diameter is 900 mm (35 in).
02
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). The PUMA 800 XL II turns 5,050 mm (199 in) on 5,100 mm (201 in) and weighs 26,000 kg (57,320 lb). Chuck size, spindle rating, the 750 rpm limit, X travel and rapids are the same in both columns.
03
No live tool speed is listed for it, and the turret has 12 stations for static tools. The PUMA 800 XLM II is the version of this bed with live tools at 3,000 rpm.
04
The table does not say what is fitted. It lists no tailstock, steady rest or maximum workpiece weight, and no spindle bore for this model. For work approaching 5,050 mm (199 in), ask DN which steady rests and tailstock are standard, which are options, and what weight the machine carries between centres.
05
The machine is listed at 9,904 × 2,955 × 2,855 mm (390 × 116 × 112 in), length by width by height, and weighs 26,000 kg (57,320 lb) without a workpiece. Crane coverage has to reach the whole bed, and there must be room to bring a part of up to 5,050 mm (199 in) alongside.
