2018 DMG DMF 260 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 2018 DMG DMF 260 is a 3-axis large-bed gantry-style vertical machining center manufactured by DMG Mori, engineered for production milling, drilling, and boring of very large and elongated workpieces in steel, cast iron, and aluminum. The machine's traveling-column gantry design provides exceptional rigidity and precise positioning across its extended travel range, enabling accurate machining of long structural components, large mold bases, and oversized machined parts in a single setup without repositioning. The spindle delivers 30 kW of continuous power at a maximum speed of 10,000 RPM through an HSK-A63 taper, with optional higher-speed configurations available, providing versatile cutting performance from heavy roughing through precision finishing operations. The working table measures 114.2 by 27.6 inches (2,900 by 700 mm) and supports axis travels of 102.4 inches in X, 27.6 inches in Y, and 27.6 inches in Z. The Siemens 840D SL CNC control with ERGOline panel provides comprehensive G-code programming, high-speed cutting cycle support, and reliable production-floor operation. The machine has an overall footprint of approximately 399.6 by 255.9 inches with a height of approximately 104.3 inches, and weighs approximately 36,156 lbs. The DMF 260 is well-suited for aerospace structural component machining, large mold and die production, heavy equipment manufacturing, and other industries requiring very long-travel vertical machining center capability combined with DMG Mori's proven reliability and control technology.
