DN Solutions PUMA V 8300 M

The DN Solutions PUMA V 8300 M adds live tooling capability to the large-capacity V 8300 vertical turning platform. The 'M' suffix means milling — a rotary tool spindle integrated into the turret enables drilling, tapping, and light milling operations on large disc-shaped parts without transferring them to a secondary machine. For shops producing large flanges with bolt circles, turbine components with cross-drilled passages, or gear blanks requiring keyways, this machine eliminates an entire setup.

The main turning spindle carries over from the base V 8300: 37 kW (50 hp) at 2,000 RPM with 2,592 Nm (1,912 ft-lbs) of torque through a 15-inch chuck. Max turning diameter is 800 mm (31.5 in) — slightly reduced from the base model's 830 mm to accommodate the live tooling turret geometry. Turning height remains at 780 mm (30.7 in). The 12-station turret with live tool positions running at 4,000 RPM handles cross-drilling, tapping, and milling operations on both faces of large workpieces.

Axis travels span 495 mm on X and 780 mm on Z, with 20 m/min rapid traverse on both axes. The C-axis enables precise angular positioning for bolt patterns, keyways, and circumferential features. At 10,200 kg (22,487 lb) and a footprint of 2,005 mm x 2,715 mm, the V 8300 M maintains the same compact floor area as the base model despite the added milling capability.

The V 8300 M is the right machine when your large disc parts need secondary features after turning. Rather than turning a 700 mm flange on the VTC, pulling it off, craning it to a VMC, indicating it, and then drilling a bolt circle — everything happens in one clamping on the V 8300 M. For power generation, oil and gas, and heavy equipment manufacturers producing large flanges, coupling hubs, and turbine discs with drilled and tapped features, the done-in-one capability pays for itself in reduced handling and improved accuracy.
