The DMU 200 Gantry and DMU 340 Gantry from DMG MORI (Hoffman Estates, IL) are two XXL machines that have been specifically developed for highly dynamic universal applications of large components. Both models offer 5-axis simultaneous machining on the largest work area with the smallest space requirement. The DMU 200 Gantry combines the machining of large parts with maximum dynamics to improve user benefits in the aerospace and automotive industry, as well as in mold making and the energy sector. With 5-axis machining up to 30,000 rpm and optional ULTRASONIC or LASERTEC technology integration, more complex components — weighing up to 22,046 lb made of aluminium or composites — as well as welded components can be machined economically.
The top gantry design of the DMU 340 Gantry makes this machining center powerful, dynamic and universally applicable. This system is the impressive result of an in-depth liaison with the large component manufacturers from the aerospace industry, general mechanical engineering, as well as tool and mold manufacturing. The work area of the DMU 340 Gantry measures 134 in x 110 in x 49 in and provides expansion options to up to 236 in for the X-axis and 59 in for the Z-axis. Through its gantry design, this machining center also has compact dimensions.
