DMG MORI CNC Turning Centers — Mongtec Tooling Compatibility

Mongtec Precision, a Taiwanese tooling brand headquartered in Taichung, Taiwan, designs and engineers BMT and VDI (DIN 69880) driven tool holders, static holders and quick-change tooling for DMG MORI CNC lathes and turning centers. Turret interfaces across the range run from VDI25 to VDI40 and BMT40 to BMT60 depending on family. Select your machine below, or contact engineering if your model is not listed — interface dimensions are confirmed per machine at RFQ.

Mongtec driven tool line — at a glance

Figures below are Mongtec's own published line specifications (mongtec-tools.com, accessed 2026-07-20). They describe the capability range of the product line; the rating of a specific unit for a specific machine is confirmed by Mongtec engineering at RFQ.

Turret interfaces suppliedBMT (face-and-taper) and VDI polygonal shank to DIN 69880
Driven tool speed6,000–12,000 rpm standard; up to 32,000 rpm with speed increaser
Max torqueUp to 160 Nm (line capability; unit rating confirmed at RFQ)
CoolantInternal / external, up to 100 bar
Runout≤0.003 mm published for the Mazak-compatible 0° driven tool line; other families confirmed at RFQ
Bearings / gearingImported P4/P5 precision bearings; precision-ground spiral bevel gear pairs
Product typesDriven holders (axial / radial / adjustable-angle), static holders, boring bar holders, custom builds
ManufacturingTaiwan; every driven unit ships with an individual inspection report
Lead timeNo blanket published figure — quoted per order after interface, quantity and customisation are reviewed
On turret standards: VDI is codified in DIN 69880. BMT (Base Mounted Turret) is a widely adopted de facto industry interface but is not published by ISO or DIN — two turrets both labelled “BMT65” can differ in detail between machine builders. Mongtec therefore verifies the actual turret dimensions of the stated machine before confirming fitment.

Supported DMG MORI models (36)

Turret interface shown where documented on the individual machine page (23 of 36 models). Entries marked “Confirmed at RFQ” are supplied after Mongtec engineering checks the actual turret configuration.

FAQ

Will a Mongtec driven tool holder fit my DMG MORI turret?
Mongtec builds on the same open machine-side standards DMG MORI turrets use — BMT face-and-taper and VDI polygonal shank to DIN 69880. Because BMT is a de facto rather than an ISO/DIN standard, fitment is confirmed per machine: send the model designation and turret station count (a photo of the turret face or the machine spec sheet helps) and Mongtec engineering will confirm before quoting.
My DMG MORI model is not in the list above — can you still supply?
In most cases yes. The list covers models already documented by Mongtec; it is not the limit of what can be built. Custom and special-configuration units are a standard part of the line. Send the model and turret details via the RFQ link and engineering will confirm feasibility and lead time.
What is the lead time?
Mongtec does not publish a blanket lead time. It is quoted per order once interface, quantity and any customisation are reviewed. Request a quote for a project-specific answer.
Do you supply static holders and boring bar holders as well as driven tools?
Yes. Static holders, boring bar holders and custom builds are supplied on the same turret interfaces as the driven units.
What quality documentation ships with the tooling?
Every driven unit ships with an individual inspection report. The line uses imported P4/P5 precision bearings and precision-ground spiral bevel gear pairs; runout of ≤0.003 mm is published for the Mazak-compatible 0° driven tool line, with figures for other families confirmed at RFQ.
Does Mongtec repair driven tools from other brands used on DMG MORI machines?
Mongtec's Taiwan service centre works on driven tool holders and angle heads. Whether a specific third-party brand and model is covered is confirmed case by case on request.
Which DMG MORI families use VDI and which use BMT?
From the models documented here: the CTX, CLX, CTV and Sprint families are listed with VDI interfaces (VDI25 through VDI40), while the NL/NLX and NTX families are listed with BMT (including BMT40 and BMT60). The individual machine pages carry the per-model detail, and the actual configuration of a specific machine is verified at RFQ.
