Overview

The DN Solutions LYNX 2100 LSYB is the 8-inch chuck version of the fully-loaded LYNX 2100 platform, combining Y-axis milling, live tooling, and a sub-spindle for done-in-one processing of mid-size parts. The designation breaks down as L (long bed), S (sub-spindle), Y (Y-axis), B (8-inch chuck). Compared to the 6-inch LSYA, you get more clamping capacity and torque at the expense of top-end spindle speed.

The main spindle delivers 15 kW (20 hp) at 4,500 RPM with 192 Nm (142 ft-lb) of torque through the 8-inch (203 mm) chuck. That 51% torque increase over the 6-inch variant (192 vs 127 Nm) lets you take heavier cuts in steel and stainless without stalling. Max turning diameter is 300 mm (12 in) with 510 mm (20 in) of turning length.

The 12-station turret runs live tools at 6,000 RPM, and the Y-axis provides ±52.5 mm (±2.07 in) of off-center travel. The sub-spindle picks up parts for backside machining. Combined, these features let you produce complex parts with off-center flats, cross-drilled holes, and machined features on both ends — all from bar stock in a single unattended cycle.

Axis travels are 205 mm (8 in) on X, ±52.5 mm on Y, and 560 mm (22 in) on Z, with rapid traverse at 30/15/36 m/min. The machine footprint stretches to approximately 2,900 mm (114 in) and weighs around 4,200 kg (9,259 lb). The FANUC 0i-TF Plus control handles all synchronization between spindles and axes.

The LSYB is the natural choice when your parts need the full LYNX capability set but are too large or require too much torque for the 6-inch LSYA. It bridges the gap between the compact LYNX 2100 and the heavier PUMA series for shops producing medium-complexity parts in the 6-8 inch diameter range.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

8-inch chuck handles mid-size parts that won't fit in the 6-inch LSYA variant
192 Nm torque is 51% more than the LSYA — handles heavier roughing in steel and stainless
Y-axis + sub-spindle + live tooling provides maximum capability for done-in-one complex parts
Same compact ~2,900 mm footprint as the LSYA despite the larger chuck
6,000 RPM live tooling handles drilling, tapping, and milling on both spindles
Bar feeder compatibility enables lights-out production of complete parts

Limitations

4,500 RPM max spindle speed is 25% lower than the LSYA's 6,000 RPM — limits surface speed on small aluminum parts
15 kW spindle power is the same as the LSYA despite the larger chuck — no extra horsepower
±52.5 mm Y-axis travel limits the width of off-center milled features
Higher price than the LSYA for the larger chuck option — only justified when parts require 8-inch clamping

Best For

Production shops running complex 6-8 inch diameter parts with off-center features and backworking requirements Hydraulic fitting and connector manufacturers needing Y-axis milling on mid-size turned parts Job shops wanting maximum versatility in one compact machine for diverse part sizes up to 8 inches Automotive and industrial component manufacturers producing complete parts from bar stock Shops upgrading from the LSYA that have outgrown the 6-inch chuck capacity

Frequently Asked Questions

01 When should I choose the LSYB over the LSYA?

Choose the LSYB when your parts regularly exceed 6 inches in diameter, or when you need the extra torque (192 vs 127 Nm) for heavier cuts in tough materials. If your parts are under 6 inches and speed matters more than torque, the LSYA's 6,000 RPM spindle is faster.

02 How does the LSYB compare to a PUMA DNT 2100?

The PUMA DNT 2100 uses box-way construction (heavier, more rigid) while the LYNX uses linear guides (faster rapids, lighter). The LYNX LSYB is more compact and has faster rapids, while the PUMA provides more cutting authority and a larger work envelope. For lighter-duty Y-axis work, the LYNX is the better value.

03 Can the LSYB handle bar stock?

Yes. With a bar feeder, the 8-inch chuck accommodates bar stock up to approximately 65 mm diameter through the spindle bore. Combined with the sub-spindle and parts catcher, it runs continuous bar-fed production of complete parts.

04 What Y-axis operations can the LSYB perform?

The ±52.5 mm Y-axis travel enables milling flats, hexagons, keyways, off-center holes, small pockets, and D-cuts. Any feature that's not centered on the spindle axis benefits from the Y-axis. Without it, you're limited to C-axis interpolation, which is slower and can't produce true flat surfaces as efficiently.
