Traditionally DMG MORI showcases a cross-section of the most innovative technologies when the AMB opens its doors to trade visitors from all over the world. With around 30 exhibits from the fields of turning, milling and advanced technologies on an exhibition area of over 2,000 m² the machine tool producer will be giving visitors a glimpse into the future of production from 13th to 17th September 2016. The innovations on show during the trade fair will include the third generation DMU 50, for example, and the Robo2Go automation solution – this can be used on several machines without any knowledge of robots.

DMG MORI Software Solutions – Products and solutions for digital transformation

A key building block in DMG MORI’s customer-oriented digitalisation strategy is the app-based CELOS system, that the machine tool manufacturer first presented around three years ago and which it has consistently continued to develop in a targeted manner ever since. Using this uniform user interface for machine and office PC, employees in shop floor and job scheduling can manage, document and visualise all job order, process and machine data. Thanks to its open architecture, CELOS allows the exchange of information with higher–level structures in addition to the impact it has in the shop floor area. So CELOS offers customers complete integration of their machines in the company organisation while simultaneously creating today the interface of metal cutting production in the cyber-physical production system of the future. The benefits in day-to-day operation are convincing: a 30 percent time saving in tooling times and 50 percent less time and effort for the calculation of technology values or the search for important information are just a few of the effects that can be achieved with CELOS. Customers also profit from the continuous further development of the CELOS system, because with every new release DMG MORI implements 50 enhancements. In addition, DMG MORI will be presenting ten new CELOS APPs at the AMB. These will include the new CELOS DEVELOPER APP, with which partners will be able to develop their own APP for the very first time.

Workshop-oriented programming is still of great importance, especially in single item production and the production of small and medium-sized quantities – and it will remain just as important for a long time to come. Working with cycles is state of the art in this respect and the reason why standard cycles in turning, milling and drilling have long been part of the scope of performance of modern controls. Based on its decades of application experience DMG MORI has gone far beyond the standard and currently has 24 exclusive DMG MORI technology cycles for the fields of turning / turning-milling or rather milling / milling-turning in its portfolio. These enable operators in the workshop to programme even complex machining tasks themselves directly on the machine via a dialog using parameterised context menus up to 60% faster. Outstanding examples here include the machining of free-form surfaces using 5-axis interpolation or various cycles for gear cutting or gearwheel production. Other cycle highlights include the MPC (Machine Protection Control) for the protection of machines, workpiece and tool, the 3D quickSET toolkit  for checking and correcting the kinematic accuracy of 4 and 5-axis machines or the Application Tuning Cycle for the process-oriented tuning of feed drives in relation to the table load at the push of a button.


World premiere: DMC 160 U duoBLOCK– maximum productivity in heavy-duty machining

DMG MORI has always responded to growing demands on components with future-proof CNC technology. The latest example of this is the new DMC 160 U duoBLOCK, which will be available as of this year’s AMB. The 5-axis universal machining centre with pallet changer is based on the proven duoBLOCK principle and in its 4th generation offers 30 percent more stability and accuracy while at the same time reducing energy consumption by 30 percent. Innovative highlights of the world premiere include the new 1,800 Nm 5X-torqueMASTER gear spindle and a travel path in the Y-direction that has now been lengthened from 1,250 to 1,600 mm.

Heavy-duty machining is now part of routine work in the field of mechanical engineering generally – in the aerospace branch, for example, or the automotive industry for the production of chassis parts and engine blocks. In this respect the sturdy construction of the patented duoBLOCK concept offers the perfect basis for both productive and high-precision machining on the DMC 160 U duoBLOCK. Its extensive cooling measures in the machine bed and base plus its wide linear guides, drives and the spindle also boost the long-term accuracy of this universal machining centre. The pallet changer of the DMC 160 U duoBLOCK can handle workpieces weighing up to 4,000 kg, while travel paths of 1,600 x 1,600 x 1,100 mm mean the workpieces can also have extremely large dimensions.

World premiere: 2nd Generation DMC 210 U– productive heavy-duty machining with pallet changer

Maximum rigidity and long-term accuracy have always been the outstanding features of the portal machines from DMG MORI. The machine tool manufacturer has optimised these even further in the second general of this successful series. With a large cube-shaped work area and a high-performance spindle programme plus CELOS in the standard version, the new DMU 210 U is perfectly equipped for the rising demands on the market. Thanks to its numerous equipment options this machine, which will be available just in time for the AMB, is ideally suited for mechanical engineering in general and in particular for sectors such as tool and mould making and aerospace. The large cube-shaped work area with travel paths of 2,100 mm in the X and Y directions and 1,250 mm in the Z-axis offer ample space here.

The fast and innovative wheel magazine can hold up to 303 tools (SK50 / HSK-A100) with lengths of maximum 900 mm despite its minimum space requirement. The standard chain magazine has 60 tool pockets and offers the option of holding a 30,000-rpm pick-up motor spindle. With a torque of 1,800 Nm, 52 kW output and 8,000 rpm the 5X torqueMASTER is a special highlight among the other available spindles. Thanks to its extended swivel range and optimised interference contour, this gear spindle enables the heavy-duty machining of complex 5-axis components. In addition to its equipment and performance, DMG MORI has also improved the efficiency of the DMU 210 U thus reducing energy costs and making a significant contribution to environmental friendliness.

DMU 90 P duoBLOCK– heavy-duty machining with an attractive package price
5-axis machining of the highest level is also the trademark of the fourth generation of the successful duoBLOCK series. Outstanding features here include the highly stable design of the universal machines, long-term accuracy and highest precision with up to 4 μm positioning accuracy even in the standard version. With its DMU 90 P duoBLOCK DMG MORI now presents a machining centre that will continue the triumphal march of the series. This latest model is designed as a package machine with a 430-Nm and 52-kW motor spindle, space for 60 SK50 tools plus an IKZ coolant unit and guarantees an economical entry into heavy-duty machining.


The DMU 90 P duoBLOCK allows an economical entry into heavy-duty machining.

Applications in tool and mould making as well as in general mechanical engineering call for investment in reliable, high-performance production equipment. DMG MORI has included the attractively priced DMU 90 P duoBLOCK in its range with universal machining in mind. With an X-axis travel path of 900 mm and a workpiece weight of 1,800 kg, it outperforms the smaller DMU 80 P duoBLOCK. Where its technical equipment is concerned, DMG MORI has concentrated on heavy-duty machining and offers the DMU 90 P duoBLOCK® as an appropriately equipped package machine.

Equipped with a C-axis and Y-axis plus powered tools the NLX 2500 from DMG MORI supports turning operations at Buchholz Hydraulic.

Founded as the handcraft enterprise Buchholz in Kiel in 1884, the Buchholz Hydraulik GmbH of today has concentrated on the solution-orientated development and production of valve controls for mobile hydraulics since 1959. The medium-sized enterprise now has over 300 employees and from its locations in three continents supplies customers from many different branches, including the construction and automotive engineering branches and the maritime industries. In its production, Buchholz Hydraulik trusts in high-quality and high-performance CNC technology in order to meet the high demands placed on

In October 2014, DMG MORI installed an NLX 2500|700 in the turning division, which, with its C-axis and Y-axis, enables complete machining of the sophisticated workpieces.

productivity. In October 2014, DMG MORI installed an NLX 2500|700 in the turning division, which, with its C-axis and Y-axis, enables complete machining of the sophisticated workpieces. In addition the new DMG MORI design and the intuitive GUI CELOS® ensure work on the lathe is ergonomic and user friendly.

Fork lifts and excavators are just two examples of the wide field of application of hydraulic solutions. Thanks to its consistent customer orientation Buchholz Hydraulik has established itself as a competent development partner that carries out a project from the concept phase right through to commissioning and optimisation in the vehicle. The core of the work is always the focus on individual product solutions that fulfil the requirements of the customers in respect of functionality and where the question of costs is concerned.

For many years, Buchholz Hydraulik has stood for high product quality and customer-orientated order processing including short delivery times. This high standard is ensured by both well-trained specialists and innovative machine tool technology. Complete machining is an important keyword here, because this kind of production meets the high productivity requirements. In addition to diverse automated systems, Buchholz Hydraulik also upgraded recently in the area of turning where it replaced an old 2-axis lathe with an NLX 2500|700 from DMG MORI.

Buchholz Hydraulik also produces complex turn-mill parts for hydraulic solutions on the NLX 2500|700.

Improved work ergonomics thanks to CELOS® and the new design

Produced for the European market at GILDEMEISTER Italiana, the NLX 2500|700 is available with very customer-specific expansion options so that it can ideally accommodate the specific application required. Buchholz Hydraulik uses a version equipped with a counter-spindle, C-axis and Y-axis as well as powered tools. “This enables us to both turn and mill the workpieces, and what is more, we can do this on the front and the back”, explains Heiko Neßler, the responsible machining technician. This is an enormous gain in productivity compared to the previous solution. “For the simple reason that we no longer need a second machine for milling.”

Another new aspect for Buchholz Hydraulik is the user interface of the NLX 2500|700. Since last year, DMG MORI has been supplying the machine equipped with CELOS® and a 21.5” ERGOline touch display. Operation of the interface is carried out intuitively and DMG MORI achieves a high degree of functionality with this combination of advanced software and hardware. Heiko Neßler programs the job order directly on the underlying MAPPS V control – often parallel to primary machining. One great advantage of CELOS® is its 3D-simulation of the program: “This warns us of potential collisions and also calculates the runtimes of the workpieces.” This option is used for calculations and other work scheduling. The new DMG MORI design rounds off the ergonomic operation of the NLX 2500|700 ab. “The large door provides good access to the work area”, says Heiko Neßler.

Buchholz Hydraulik comes to a very positive conclusion with regard to the NLX 2500|700 and the new CELOS® user interface: it has been possible to integrate machine concept perfectly into everyday production. This verdict is clearly confirmed by the fact that another two NLX 2500|700 machines are to be installed in the coming months.

The unique service portfolio of DMG MORI LifeCycle Services that maximises the productivity of their customer’s machines rounds off the trade fair presentation of DMG MORI at its 315 mbooth in Hall B (position: B01:34).

CELOS® for Industry 4.0
With CELOS®, DMG MORI is offering a cutting-edge user interface that can be expanded with new APPs and updates and which provides an immediate solution to Industry 4.0. CELOS® is as easy to use as your smartphone, networks all machines within a manufacturing organisation and therefore simplifies the process from the idea to the finished product. 16 APPs help the operator prepare, optimise and process production jobs without any errors and enables the consistent administration, documentation and visualisation of order, process and machine data, consequently holistically improves the profitability of production.

24 DMG MORI technology cycles – software offensive in workshop programming

Workshop-oriented programming is still of great importance especially in single item production and the production of small and medium-sized quantities – and it will remain just as important for a long time to come. Whereby working with cycles is now state of the art and standard cycles for turning, milling and drilling have long been included in the performance range of modern controls.

Based on its decades of application experience DMG MORI has gone far beyond the standard and currently has 24 exclusive DMG MORI technology cycles for the fields of turning / turning-milling or rather milling / milling-turning in its portfolio.

The ecoMill 600 V impresses with its design and revolutionary DMG MORI Multi-Touch SLIMline® control.

For years, DMG MORI has defined a new standard of performance in the sector of entry-level machines with the ECOLINE product line. In line with its tradition of innovative performance, DMG MORI will be presenting the ecoMill 800 V with the new DMG MORI SLIMline® multi-touch control at Elmia Machine Tools in Jönköping as a revolutionary milestone. Even at the very first glance, the vertical machining centre impresses with its new ECOLINE design that ensures further improved work ergonomics and a higher level of value retention. The ecoMill V series is based on a C-frame cast iron bed for the best stiffness and vibration characteristics ensuring highest precision. Ball screws of the highest quality and a powerful 12,000 rpm spindle were combined to meet the highest standards in production. The performance of the ecoMill V machines even in the smallest size is outstanding already in the standard version. The highest precision (without direct scales) can be realized, due to direct coupling in X / Y, no belt drive for no backlash. An optimized machine structure also increases stability during machining, and a high degree of manufacturing flexibility is provided in the standard version by having 30 tool pockets in the tool magazine. The new 19 – inches DMG MORI SLIMline® multi-touch control with Operate on SIEMENS represents the next advanced step for a modern user interface. The practical and ergonomically optimised 19″ multi-touch display with its maximised resolution and 45° swivel range offers decisive user benefits.

NLX – Premium class universal turning
DMG MORI NLXStability and rigidity are the key to excellent machining results, long tool service life and efficient processes when it comes to lathes. And this is exactly what was taken into consideration in the development of the NLX series. Thanks to the overhauled machine bed and flat guides with their high damping capacity, the NLX models achieve a rigidity that is up to 30 percent higher than that of the predecessor series. This is also true of the NLX 2500SY|700 that will be showcased in Utrecht, with its counter-spindle, Y-axis (100 mm) and its turning length of 705 mm.

In particular, the larger ball-thread drives, which together with the enlarged bearings make the axes up to 50 percent more rigid, play a decisive role in the top performance achieved by this machine. In addition, DMG MORI has also improved thermal stability. The cooling system integrated in the machine bed reduces thermal displacement to a minimum. Add to all this the modular design of the NLX machines and you get the perfect basis for optimum turning operations. A special highlight in this context is the BMT® turret for 12 powered tools and speeds of up to 10,000 rpm.

All new NLX models are equipped with CELOS® as an intelligent human-machine-interface. CELOS® from DMG MORI simplifies and accelerates the process from the idea to the finished product. CELOS® apps also enable continuous and digitalised management, documentation and visualisation of job, process and machine data. In addition, CELOS® is compatible with PPS and ERP systems; it can be networked with CAD/CAM applications and is ready for trendsetting CELOS® app expansions.

CTX beta 800 TC – Turn & Mill complete machining with the new ultra-compact turn-mill spindle compactMASTER®

DMG MORI CTX Beta 800Complete machining in a single setup is one of the hot topics in the field of production technology. DMG MORI excels here as a full-liner with an extensive program also for the machining of rotation symmetric components: starting with the “normal” multi-axis lathes with driven tools and on through to the premium class of turn-mill machining centres with turn-mill spindle and where applicable an additional turret for 5-axis and (with counter-spindle) up to 6-sided full machining. The CTX beta 800 TC expands the DMG MORI portfolio here in the field of smaller work pieces with up to Ø500 x 800 mm.

 

DMU 75 monoBLOCK®

DMG MORI DMU 75 monoBLOCKAs an example demonstrating its position as the world market leader in the sector of 5-axis and 5-axis simultaneous machining, DMG MORI will be presenting the DMU 75 monoBLOCK® in Utrecht; the machine will feature top equipment including a 750-mm X-travel, NC-swivel rotary table, 20,000 rpm speedMASTER® spindle and a vertical chain magazine with 60 stations for SK40 tools. Workpieces with a diameter of up to 840 mm and weighing 600 kg can be machined on a space of less than 8 m². Whereby the work area can always be loaded from above without any limitation. Another impressive feature of the DMU 75 monoBLOCK® are its intelligent control systems, which translate the performance of the machine construction into maximum process efficiency, top component precision and optimum user-friendliness.  This applies above all for CELOS® from DMG MORI with a 21.5″ ERGOline®and SIEMENS.
