Overview

The DN Solutions PUMA TW 2600 is a twin-spindle, twin-turret horizontal turning center with both chucks facing forward, a layout meant for chucking work loaded by a gantry. Each side is a short-stroke lathe: maximum turning diameter is 360 mm (14 in) and maximum turning length is 170 mm, with 190 mm of X travel and 180 mm (7 in) of Z. The chucks are 10-inch.

Those proportions say what the machine is for. A 360 mm diameter with 170 mm of length describes discs, flanges, hubs, gear blanks and similar parts that are wider than they are long, typically run as a first and a second operation side by side. The spindle is listed at 3,500 rpm, 18.5 kW (25 hp) and 201 N·m (148 ft-lb), and the table shows 10 turret stations. There is no driven-tool row for this model: the PUMA TW 2600 M is the version with live tools, at 5,000 rpm.

DN Solutions ties the design to idle time. The turrets are servo-driven for faster indexing, and for the PUMA TW/TS2600-GL gantry-loader model DN quotes a handling time of 7.9 s to enter, change the workpiece and exit. Loader guidance software is built in for operating and maintaining the gantry. Rapid traverse is 24 m/min (945 ipm), which on strokes this short matters less than the loader and indexing times.

The machine is compact for two spindles: 2,520 × 2,061 mm (99 × 81 in) on the floor, 2,150 mm (85 in) high, and 7,200 kg (15,873 lb). DN also lists a 3-axis turret size enlargement as an option.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

Twin-spindle, twin-turret layout with forward-facing chucks, suited to loading both spindles from a gantry
360 mm (14 in) maximum turning diameter on a 10-inch chuck
Servo-driven turrets, which DN credits with faster indexing, with 10 stations listed
DN quotes a 7.9 s gantry loader handling time for the PUMA TW/TS2600-GL
Small footprint for a two-spindle machine: 2,520 × 2,061 mm (99 × 81 in)

Limitations

Maximum turning length is 170 mm and Z travel is 180 mm (7 in), so shafts and long parts are out
No driven tools in this model's table; milling and cross-drilling need the PUMA TW 2600 M with its 5,000 rpm live tools
Spindle speed stops at 3,500 rpm, which limits surface speed on small diameters
The 7.9 s loader time is quoted for the -GL model; this model's table does not list a gantry

Best For

Discs, flanges and hubs up to 360 mm (14 in) in diameter Short chucking parts within 170 mm of turning length Two-operation turning with one spindle per operation Gantry-loaded production cells for chucked parts

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What kind of parts is the PUMA TW 2600 built for?

Short chucking work. The envelope is 360 mm (14 in) in diameter by 170 mm in length, with 190 mm of X travel and 180 mm (7 in) of Z, held in 10-inch chucks that face forward. That describes flanges, discs, hubs and rings turned in two operations, one on each spindle. It is not a bar or shaft machine.

02 What is the difference between the PUMA TW 2600 and the PUMA TW 2600 M?

Driven tools. The PUMA TW 2600 M lists a live tool speed of 5,000 rpm and weighs 7,300 kg (16,094 lb); the PUMA TW 2600 has no live-tool row and weighs 7,200 kg (15,873 lb). Chuck size, the 360 mm (14 in) turning diameter, the 170 mm turning length, the travels, the 3,500 rpm spindle and the 10 turret stations are the same on both.

03 Does the PUMA TW 2600 come with a gantry loader?

DN Solutions describes a high-speed gantry loader for the series and quotes 7.9 s handling time (enter, change work, exit) for the PUMA TW/TS2600-GL. That figure is given under the -GL model name, so confirm with DN whether the machine being quoted includes the loader. Built-in loader guidance software is listed for gantry operation and maintenance.

04 What are the spindle figures?

The table lists a maximum spindle speed of 3,500 rpm, 18.5 kW (25 hp) of power and 201 N·m (148 ft-lb) of torque. It gives one set of figures and does not say separately what each of the two spindles is rated at, so check that both carry this rating.

05 How much floor space does the PUMA TW 2600 take?

The machine is 2,520 mm long, 2,061 mm wide and 2,150 mm high (99 × 81 × 85 in) and weighs 7,200 kg (15,873 lb). A gantry loader and its part stocker sit outside those figures, so the cell will need more room and headroom than the machine alone.
