DMG MORI NLX 2500 2nd Generation

The NLX 2500 2nd Generation is a DMG MORI CNC turning centre with a Y-axis of +/- 60 mm, used for 6-sided complete machining of workpieces. It accepts bar stock up to 105 mm diameter and workpieces up to 366 mm diameter, with maximum workpiece length set by the machine type. Axes are driven by MASTER spindles and a BMT turret that carries live tools for milling.

Study notes

  • The document lists two machine types: Type 700 has a Z-axis stroke of 795 mm and a maximum workpiece length of 708 mm; Type 1250 has a Z-axis stroke of 1,345 mm and a maximum workpiece length of 1,258 mm. Z stroke and maximum workpiece length are therefore not recorded as single values.
  • Control and software alternatives named are SIEMENS and MAPPS; neither matches a controller entry in the reference list, so no controller id is recorded.
  • Y-axis stroke is +/- 60 mm (5 in / 120 mm total).
  • Left MASTER spindle: 10 in with 5,000 rpm and 843 Nm, or optionally 12 in with 3,000 rpm and 1,273 Nm. MASTER spindles carry a 36-month warranty with unlimited spindle hours.
  • Right spindle (optional): from 6 in with 7,000 rpm and 95 Nm up to 10 in with 5,000 rpm and maximum 577 Nm.
  • BMT turret up to 12,000 rpm or 100 Nm with up to 20 tool stations (VDI = 12 stations). High-Speed version up to 12,000 rpm and 86 Nm; High-Torque version up to 6,000 rpm and 100 Nm.
  • Coolant system uses a 900 l zero-sludgeCOOLANT pro tank with integrated sludge and oil collection, plus a zeroFOG mist system and a self-cleaning chip conveyor.
  • GREENMODE states 16% less energy (value given for NLX 2500 | 700), 44% less lubrication oil and 12% less compressed air consumption; a 400 V machine gives up to 6% reduced energy consumption.
  • A plug-and-play automation interface is provided, with retrofittable automation solutions.
