2022 DMG Mori NLX2500SY/700 CNC Turn-Mill Center

The DMG Mori NLX2500SY/700 is a dual-spindle, Y-axis turn-mill center known for done-in-one production and the rigidity that has made the NLX line a staple in precision job shops and production turning departments. This 2022 unit handles workpieces up to 18.1 inches in diameter and 27.8 inches between the main and sub spindles, with a BMT (built-in motor turret) carrying 10,000 RPM live tooling, a full Y-axis, and C-axis contouring for milling, drilling, and cross-work. It runs on a Mitsubishi CELOS/MAPPS control and comes equipped with an LNS Quick Load Servo 80 S2 bar feeder, Royal QG-65 collet chucks on both spindles, main and sub-spindle tool setters, and custom spindle liners for bar work.

Compared to the earlier Mori Seiki NL2500 it descends from, the NLX2500SY/700 is a substantial step forward rather than a re-badge. The NLX platform widened the machining envelope and stiffened the box-way bed for heavier, more stable cutting, moved to the current-generation CELOS operating interface for faster setup and shop-floor connectivity the older NL control could not match, and integrated a true Y-axis with a high-speed 10,000 RPM BMT turret for full milling capability the base NL turning centers lacked. For a buyer, that means the NLX2500SY/700 does not just turn parts; it completes them main-to-sub in one cycle, cutting the second operations and handoffs a previous-generation lathe would have required.
