Our best estimate for the DMG Mori NLX 2500/700 is $150,000 - $220,000. This is an estimate for a cnc lathes / turning centers in this class, not a quote from DMG Mori; configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/dmg-mori-nlx-2500-700#price; the request is passed to DMG Mori or an authorised dealer.
DMG MORI's current lineup does not show a model under the name NLX 2500/700, and it may be an older model. The current NLX 2500 is built in a Type 700 length with 260 mm (10.2 in) of X travel and 795 mm (31.3 in) of Z travel, close to the 10.2 in and 31.2 in listed here.
The listed figures are a 4,000 RPM main spindle with an A2-8 nose and a 10 in chuck. Spindle torque is listed as 828 Nm, with 1,273 Nm for the version with a 12 in chuck. The rows for bar capacity contradict each other, so measure the spindle bore on the machine.
Not necessarily. Y-axis travel of 120 mm (4.7 in) is listed as optional, and the type row describes a 2-axis lathe. Where driven tools are fitted the listed figures are up to 12,000 RPM (BMT) and up to 100 Nm. Check the turret and the axis configuration of the individual machine.
The listed turret versions run from 10 to 20 stations in BMT60, BMT40 or VDI40, and one row gives 12 tool positions. The interface decides which tool holders fit, so identify the turret type on the machine before planning the tooling.
CELOS, listed with Siemens or Mitsubishi MAPPS. Which of the two a machine has should be confirmed on that machine, since programs and options differ between them.
