High-Performing Turning Machine for Demanding Automation Applications



The ALX 2000 is available in 11.8", 19.6", 39.3" and 78.7" turning lengths.

As a smaller sister model of the ALX 2500, DMG MORI now presents the ALX 2000, a high-performing turning machine designed for demanding automation applications in any industry.

Engineered to meet the high demands of serial production in the automotive industry and other sectors, the ALX 2000, which DMG MORI produces in Davis, CA, is a stable, dynamic and compact turning machine featuring a max. spindle speed of 4,500 RPM and a BMT turret with 12 powered tools and tailstock. In addition, the ALX 2000 offers a high degree of automation due to the optional gantry loader for cost-effective production.

The sturdy construction along with slideways on the X-axis and linear motion guides on the Z-axis help provide good damping properties and a high level of positioning accuracy. This is of particular benefit in the automotive sector for the production of various housings and shafts. The ALX 2000 is available in 11.8", 19.6", 39.3" and 78.7" turning lengths.

Due to its tailstock and 12 powered tools in the BMT turret, the ALX 2000 can also handle more complex components. Rapid traverses of up to 30 m/min and the high-performance turnMASTER spindle with a speed of 4,500 RPM and a torque of 263 Nm offer the necessary power and dynamics, while accuracy is 0.4 µm.

The ALX 2000 offers process reliability due to its optimum chip flow and simple chip disposal, which is installed at the front. Maintenance parts can also be reached quickly and simply from there. The user-friendly, ergonomic design of the ALX 2000 is continued for the controls, where DMG MORI relies on the 12.1" COMPACTline with MAPPS Pro for up to 19.6" in turning length and 15" SLIMline with MAPPS for the longer versions.

Because flexible serial production plays a key role in automobile construction, DMG MORI offers the ALX 2500 with the optional installation of a GX 7 gantry loader, which enables virtually unmanned production. Modular expansions for the automation solution, such as a measuring unit or deburring unit, are also available for even greater process integration.
