DMG MORI USA, INC. ALX 2500 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The DMG MORI USA ALX 2500 is a horizontal machining center engineered for heavy-duty turning and milling operations. It features dual main spindles, each delivering 30 horsepower at 3,500 RPM, enabling powerful material removal for demanding workpieces. The primary spindle accommodates a maximum turning diameter of 18.1 inches with an extended turning length capacity of 78.7 inches, supported by a 10-inch chuck and capable of handling bar stock up to 3.1 inches in diameter. The spindle's maximum swing radius of 32.3 inches provides excellent accessibility for complex part geometries. The machine incorporates a BMT turret as its primary tool carrier with a rotary tool operating at 7,000 RPM, allowing simultaneous cutting operations with one tool at a time. Built on a rigid three-axis configuration, the ALX 2500 delivers rapid traverse rates of 1,181 inches per minute across all axes, with travel distances of 10.2 inches (X-axis) and 23.22 inches (Z-axis), optimizing cycle times for production environments. This machine combines substantial spindle power with high-speed rapid movements, positioning it as an ideal solution for precision machining of large components requiring both rotational and linear tool motion capabilities.
