The price estimate for the DMG Mori CTX 350 4A is uncertain: we have no price for it that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so we give no figure. Configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/dmg-mori-ctx-350-4a#price; the request is passed to DMG Mori or an authorised dealer.
The machine has two turrets, an upper and a lower one, and two spindles, left and right. DMG MORI states that both turrets can work on both spindles individually or simultaneously. In practice two tools can cut at the same time on one part, or each turret can serve its own spindle while the first and second sides run in parallel.
The left spindle is an ISM 65 with 5,500 rpm and 171 Nm. The right spindle is an ISM 50 Plus with 6,000 rpm and max. 93 Nm. DMG MORI's Highlights for this model give speed and torque but no spindle power figure.
The upper and the lower turret each have 12 tool stations in VDI 30. The upper turret is also available with up to 16 tool stations in VDI 30. Driven tools run at up to 12,000 rpm or 17 Nm, and the 100 mm Y-axis is on the upper turret.
The table gives a maximum workpiece diameter of 320 mm (12.6 in), a maximum length of 530 mm (20.9 in) and a 65 mm (2.6 in) bar capacity. For 6-sided complete machining DMG MORI quotes workpieces up to Ø 200 x 100 mm with +/- 50 mm of Y travel, which is the better guide for parts worked on both spindles.
In travel, the CTX 350 lists 250 mm (9.8 in) of X and 550 mm (21.7 in) of Z, against 185 mm (7.3 in) and 495 mm (19.5 in) on the CTX 350 4A. Both list 100 mm (3.9 in) of Y. What defines the CTX 350 4A is its pair of turrets, which can work on both spindles individually or simultaneously.
DMG MORI lists GREENMODE for up to 10% reduced energy consumption. The measures named are energy monitoring with automatic shutdown, synchronous spindle drives and class IE3 motors, inverter technology for hydraulics and coolant, minimized compressed air consumption, and low friction linear guides with grease lubrication.
