With a footprint of 33.1ft x 14.9ft x 14.7ft, the NT6600 DCG/4000CS is ideal for machining large parts and long workpieces.


With a footprint of 33.1ft x 14.9ft x 14.7ft, the NT6600 DCG/4000CS is ideal for machining large parts and long workpieces and offers a maximum machining length of 13.3ft. Additionally, the machine employs DCG (Driven at the Center of Gravity) technology, the box-in-box construction of the NH Series horizontal machining centers and the turret with built-in milling motor from the NL Series of CNC lathes. Like other machines in Mori Seiki's NT Series, the NT6600 DCG/4000CS contains a B-axis that uses a DD (Direct Drive) motor, eliminating backlash and making high-speed rotation possible.

Visitors will also see the NMV8000 DCG, a 5-axis vertical machining center created to meet the needs of manufacturers producing large, complex parts. Building off the successful design of the NMV5000 DCG, the new machine accommodates workpieces up to a diameter of 39.7", weighing up to 2,200 lb.

Additionally, Mori Seiki will showcase the DIXI JIG 1200 High Precision Horizontal Machining Center. The JIG 1200 provides axis strokes of 47.2" x 43.3" x 43.3" with a 49.2" x 39.3" table that is capable of supporting over 5,500 lb. While positioning accuracy of 5µm is typical for this class of machines, the JIG 1200 actually provides positioning accuracy of 0.99µm.

Also featured will be machines from Mori Seiki's DuraTurn, DuraVertical, NL, NX, NZ, NMH and NMV Series, the company's Taiyo Koki vertical grinding machines and products developed by its Machining Technology Laboratory (MTL).
