{"id":"dmg-mori-lasertec-160-powerdrill","model_id":"LASERTEC 160 PowerDrill","name":"DMG MORI LASERTEC 160 PowerDrill","summary":"The LASERTEC 160 PowerDrill is a five-axis laser drilling machine for large turbine components, using a travelling column design to keep rigidity constant across the work area. Its linear axes travel 1600 mm in X, 1000 mm in Y and 1000 mm in Z, and it is controlled by a Siemens 840D solutionline with LASERSOFT PowerDrill software. It drills cooling-air holes without electrodes or tool contact, so there is no tool wear.","study_notes":["The page covers two variants: LASERTEC 100 PowerDrill (X stroke 1000 mm) and LASERTEC 160 PowerDrill (X stroke 1600 mm); Y and Z strokes are 1000 mm on both.","Control is Siemens 840D solutionline with the LASERSOFT PowerDrill / PowerShape software packages; no matching controller entry exists in the reference list.","Document states positioning accuracy P10 to DIN ISO 2230-2 over the whole work area, achieved with a travelling column concept.","X and Y axes are driven by linear drives at 80 m/min and 7 m/s²; motors, linear guides and ball screw drive are water-cooled.","Workpiece capacity: component diameter up to 1100 mm and maximum height 1500 mm.","Available with a high-precision 12-23 kW QCW fibre laser.","Optional B-axis laser head with ±150° range; table variants include B- and C-axis.","Machine options include variable collimation, breakthrough detection, capacitive distance sensors, a conoscopic sensor and an optional tool changer.","A high-speed shutter enables Synchro-Drill (drilling synchronised with a rotating component); PatternDrilling drills segments or single rows.","PowerShape version (from Q1/2023) machines shaped hole geometries with conical exit funnels, versus the PowerDrill version for pure laser drilling."],"safety_notes":[],"sources":[{"url":"https://en.dmgmori.com/products/machines/lasertec/lasertec-powerdrill/lasertec-100-powerdrill","title":"LASERTEC 100 / 160 PowerDrill - LASERTEC Machines - DMG MORI","accessed":"2026-10-25"}],"verification":{"status":"source_checked","checked_at":"2026-10-25","values":6,"method":"llm_source_check"},"updated_at":"2026-10-25","type":"hardware","spec":{"category":"other","manufacturer":"dmg-mori","controllers":[],"axes":5,"travel_x_mm":1600,"travel_y_mm":1000,"travel_z_mm":1000,"rapid_traverse_m_min":80,"joints":[],"protocols":[],"standards":[],"error_codes":[]},"url":"https://machineschema.com/hardware/dmg-mori-lasertec-160-powerdrill","license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/"}
