Munich. Horizontal machining centers impress with performance, stability, and process reliability – reasons for the continued popularity of the DMU H series from DMG MORI. The DMU 65 H monoBLOCK 2nd generation will continue the success story of its predecessor model. At the in-house exhibition in Pfronten, the machine tool manufacturer presents the further development. The powerful, efficient, and universal 5-axis horizontal machining center creates all the prerequisites for a successful machining transformation (MX). Process integration, flexible automation solutions, and digital tools ensure efficient and resource-saving production. This benefits demanding industries such as Die & Mold, Aviation & Space, and Mobility.
Stable, horizontal design
The self-supporting machine bed made of cast iron with a 3-point support and three guides in the X-axis provides the DMU 65 H monoBLOCK 2nd generation with an optimal basis for high-performance heavy cutting. Together with the thermosymmetric design and extensive cooling measures, it achieves a continuous accuracy of up to 5 µm even in standard configuration. The robust column construction with low moving masses ensures high dynamics with accelerations of up to 8.5 m/s².
The large working area allows for a high variety of machining. The application spectrum includes workpieces with high clamping ranges, complex 5-axis geometries, and reliable deep hole drilling. The E-Pallet additionally supports the variety of machining. The smart interface provides power for fully electric clamping devices and sensors as well as hydraulics and pneumatics. This revolutionizes the classic machine table and enables the use of smart clamping devices that allow for the utilization of intelligent software. Due to the horizontal design, machining benefits from optimal chip fall and good heat dissipation, leading to a maximum level of process reliability.
Integrated processes and digitized manufacturing
The double-sided supported swivel rotary table is designed for components with up to Ø 840 x 770 mm and 600 kg and allows for flexible machining of workpieces – up to 5-in-1 process integration of milling, turning, grinding, measuring, and gear cutting. The tool magazine has space for up to 453 tools with a maximum length of 650 mm, Ø 280 mm diameter, and a weight of 22 kg. The spindle range offers both variants with up to 30,000 min-1 as well as options for powerful cutting with 288 Nm and HSK-A 100 tool holders.
The high connectivity of the DMU 65 H monoBLOCK 2nd generation and control platform CELOS X – available with Siemens or HEIDENHAIN – paves the way for a seamless digitization of production. The app-based, intuitive operation and exclusive DMG MORI technology cycles also facilitate handling.
Wide range of automation
A key goal in future-proof manufacturing is the optimal machine utilization – even for automated operation. In the case of the
DMU 65 H monoBLOCK 2nd generation, DMG MORI relies on a large portfolio of automation solutions. The alternatives range from modular PH Cell pallet handling to linking in linear pallet pools. This solution benefits from the narrow design with a width of 2.6 m. Additionally, operation with autonomous transport systems of the AMR series realizes a fully autonomous shop floor. The optimal utilization of the machine in combination with low moving masses and extensive GREENMODE measures also ensures that the DMU 65 H monoBLOCK 2nd generation meets the requirements for energy-efficient and sustainable manufacturing.
