DMG MORI Bergamo will use its open house from June 9 to 11, 2026, to show how local machine production, automation and process integration are shaping turning technology. The exhibition brings together production turning machines, turn and mill centers, 5-axis machining and pallet handling. It has a clear focus on the efficient manufacturing of complex workpieces.
The in-house event in Bergamo is organized under the motto “Excellence Made in Italy” and takes place in a showroom of almost 1,300 m². Eighteen machines will be shown, including twelve from the Brembate di Sopra and Tortona plants. The range includes SPRINT and MULTISPRINT automatic turning machines, models from the NZ series, the NLX 2500|700 1. Generation and the CTX 550.
For the first time in Italy, DMG MORI is also presenting the NTX 2500 3. Generation turn and mill center and the DMU 60 eVo 2. Generation, combined with the PH Cell 300 pallet handling system. The NZ TRE horizontal production turning center will be shown with Robo2Go Turning 2. Generation automation. Partner solutions from HAIMER, Horn, Tungaloy, ALGRA and FCS System, along with technical seminars and factory tours, complete the program.
Bergamo strengthens its role in production turning
DMG MORI Bergamo is described by the company as a European center of excellence for automated turning. Since 2014, after significant investment, the site has operated modern production facilities and a technology center where machining solutions for production turning are developed. The installed base of more than 5,000 production turning machines from the SPRINT, MULTISPRINT and NZ platforms underlines the role of the plant within the company’s turning portfolio.
The focus is on sectors where complex workpieces, stable processes and consistent component quality are important. The press material names medical, automotive and oil and gas as key industries. Energy applications are also becoming more relevant, including components for conventional and renewable energy sources such as wind energy. These parts place demands on material processing, process reliability and component quality. For manufacturers, therefore, machine choice is directly linked to practical production issues such as repeatable machining, short cycle times and the ability to handle demanding materials without losing stability.
Multi-spindle turning for cycle time and process stability
The SPRINT and MULTISPRINT series represent DMG MORI Bergamo’s long-standing work in production turning. These multi-spindle machines are aimed at high-volume manufacturing of complex turned parts, where short cycle times, high accuracy and process reliability are central requirements. In this type of production, the technical value lies not only in spindle count, but in maintaining stable output over long runs while keeping part quality within specification.
The NZ platform adds a more modular approach. Available as NZ DUE, NZ TRE and NZ QUATTRO, these turn and mill machines can be configured with up to four machining units, including a B-axis, and can be combined with automation. This makes the platform relevant where manufacturers need to adapt a machine concept to different part families or production volumes. The open house also includes the NLX 2500|700 in its first-generation configuration. According to DMG MORI, local production of this model supports shorter delivery times in Europe, which can be significant for companies planning capacity expansions or machine replacement within defined project schedules.
Complete machining on the NTX 2500
The NTX 2500 3. Generation is being presented in Bergamo as a turn and mill center for 6-sided complete machining in a single setup. The machine is aimed at complex components in sectors including aviation and aerospace, medical, and die and mold. Its technical layout combines two rigid turnMASTER spindles, a compactMASTER spindle with a large swivel range and a second tool carrier in the form of a turretMASTER turret.
For users, the main practical effect is the possibility of combining several machining operations in one machine environment. The work area allows a maximum turning diameter of up to 670 mm and a turning length of up to 1,530 mm. The compactMASTER turn and mill spindle moves plus or minus 150 mm in the Y-axis and enables machining at speeds of up to 20,000 rpm. The machine therefore addresses applications where turning and milling functions must be coordinated closely to reduce handling and keep process sequences compact. DMG MORI also states that the turnMASTER spindle and turretMASTER turret now carry a 60-month warranty with unlimited spindle hours, while the compactMASTER spindle has a 36-month warranty under the same condition.
5-axis machining with integrated automation
The DMU 60 eVo 2. Generation adds a 5-axis machining element to the open house. The machine is based on table kinematics and has been further developed for higher demands on accuracy, dynamics and flexibility. With an optional mill-turn table, it can integrate milling and turning, gear cutting using the gearSKIVING technology cycle and grinding. This process integration is relevant for manufacturers that want to reduce separate operations and keep more work within one machining concept.
The machine will be shown with the PH Cell 300, a compact pallet handling system for automated production with machining centers. The system supports different pallet sizes and transfer weights of up to 300 kg. In practice, this type of automation is aimed at improving machine utilization and supporting flexible production with varying workpieces. The control options are SINUMERIK ONE or HEIDENHAIN TNC 7 on CELOS X, connecting the machine to DMG MORI’s digitalization approach. Within the open house program, this combination places 5-axis simultaneous machining, process integration and pallet automation alongside the turning systems manufactured in Italy.
