Hardware · `ALX 2000` · verification: source checked

The ALX 2000 is a CNC turning machine built on the ALX Series platform, with a maximum workpiece diameter of 460 mm and a maximum workpiece length of 574 mm. It has a 65 mm bar capacity and travels of 260 mm in X, 100 mm in Y and 575 mm in Z, with an X/Z rapid traverse rate of 30 m/min. The spindle is DMG MORI's in-house turnMASTER direct-drive built-in motor spindle, and the machine uses box slideways on X and linear motion guides on Y and Z.

## Study notes

- Document lists the series as having 13 models covering 8-inch chuck spindle, turning/milling/Y-axis specification and spindle 2 specification.
- Distance between centers is offered in 300, 500, 1000 and 2000 types.
- The ALX 2000/300 turning specification has a footprint of 2.7 m2 (29.1 ft2) and can be placed in the existing CL2000 installation area.
- The stated X/Z rapid traverse of 30 m/min (1,181.1 ipm) is described as 25% faster than the CL.
- Slideways are used on the X-axis for damping; linear motion guides are used on Y and Z for positioning accuracy.
- Full closed loop control (scale feedback) SmartSCALE is available as an option.
- The turnMASTER spindle carries a 3-year guarantee and has an enhanced labyrinth structure for frequent high-pressure coolant use.
- Control and software alternatives listed are MAPPS and Mitsubishi; no matching controller entry is available.
