{"id":"dmg-mori-nlx-4000","model_id":"NLX 4000","name":"DMG MORI NLX 4000","summary":"The NLX 4000 is a CNC lathe from DMG MORI for machining large parts. It is offered in two machine types, Type 750 and Type 1500, which differ in Z-axis stroke and maximum workpiece length. The machine has an X and Y axis and a BMT (Built-in Motor Turret) that also drives rotating milling tools.","study_notes":["Two machine types are listed: Type 750 (Z-axis stroke 875 mm, maximum workpiece length 746 mm) and Type 1500 (Z-axis stroke 1,685 mm, maximum workpiece length 1,584 mm).","Control and software alternative listed: MAPPS Mitsubishi.","Maximum through-spindle hole diameter is 145 mm (5.7 in) or 185 mm (7.3 in), stated as the largest in its class.","Milling torque: 100 N·m (73.8 ft·lbf) intermittent for 4 min, 68 N·m (50.2 ft·lbf) continuous.","C-axis positioning accuracy: 6.8 sec.","Slideway area is increased 50% on the X axis and 90% on the Z axis compared with a conventional machine; large-diameter ball screws are used.","Coolant circulation inside the castings on the 750 type controls thermal displacement."],"safety_notes":[],"sources":[{"url":"https://en.dmgmori.com/products/machines/turning/universal-turning/nlx/nlx-4000","title":"NLX 4000 - Universal Turning - DMG MORI","accessed":"2026-10-25"}],"verification":{"status":"source_checked","checked_at":"2026-10-25","values":5,"method":"llm_source_check"},"updated_at":"2026-10-25","type":"hardware","spec":{"category":"cnc_lathe","manufacturer":"dmg-mori","controllers":[],"travel_x_mm":365,"travel_y_mm":120,"max_turning_diameter_mm":600,"bar_capacity_mm":117,"joints":[],"protocols":[],"standards":[],"error_codes":[]},"url":"https://machineschema.com/hardware/dmg-mori-nlx-4000","license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/"}
