DMC DL 22A HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The DMC DL 22A is a compact horizontal CNC turning center designed for precision machining of small to medium-sized components. Featuring a maximum swing diameter of 21.650 inches and turning length of 16.140 inches, this machine excels in repetitive production work with tight tolerances. The unit is equipped with an 8-inch chuck and accommodates bar stock up to 2.560 inches in diameter, with a maximum spindle speed of 4,000 RPM and 25 HP main spindle power. The machine incorporates a servo-driven turret tool carrier with capacity for 12 turning tools and 12 rotary tools, enabling efficient tool changes and multi-tasking operations. Its box guideway structure provides robust rigidity for powerful cutting while maintaining smooth, quiet operation. The standard configuration offers 2-axis capability with optional 3-axis functionality, delivering rapid traverse rates of 945 IPM across all axes. An auxiliary 5 HP rotary spindle rotating at 5,000 RPM supports secondary milling and drilling operations without requiring part repositioning. The compact horizontal design optimizes shop floor space utilization while maintaining accessibility for tool changes and workpiece handling. With its modular construction and high-speed precision capabilities, the DL 22A is well-suited for job shops, tool and die facilities, and manufacturers requiring flexible, accurate turning and secondary machining in a single setup.
