DTC Series

The DTC Series from AMS is purpose-built for high-speed drilling, tapping, and precision milling applications — delivering exceptional productivity within a compact footprint. Designed from the ground up to reduce cycle times, the DTC Series achieves both high acceleration and accuracy, making it an ideal solution for high-volume production environments. Each machine comes equipped with FANUC OiMF CNC control, a 24-pocket tool changer, and standard automatic doors with integrated light curtains, preparing it for robotic automation right from the factory.

Available with integrated rotary table and hydraulic clamping solutions, the DTC Series supports flexible automation packages tailored to your production needs. With options for linear or rotary pallet changers, shops can maximize spindle uptime and operator efficiency. Built on a cast iron base and column that undergoes FEM analysis and stress relief processing, the DTC Series ensures long-term stability and structural integrity under heavy-duty machining.

DTC Tool Changer

Intelligent Design & Tool Changing System

The DTC Series is engineered with a compact yet robust design, built to deliver maximum machining performance within a minimal footprint. Its FEM-analyzed cast iron base and column provide outstanding rigidity and vibration damping, ensuring long-term accuracy even under high-speed or heavy-duty cutting conditions. Precision-ground linear roller guideways enable fast and smooth axis movement, supporting the machine’s high acceleration and rapid positioning. 

At the heart of the DTC Series’ productivity lies its high-speed automatic tool changer (ATC). The standard 24-tool carousel magazine is designed for quick and reliable tool swaps, reducing chip-to-chip time and boosting output in continuous production environments. Each tool station supports BT30 or BBT30 tooling, ensuring rigidity and precision during high-speed operations. The advanced arm-type ATC mechanism provides smooth tool exchanges, even during complex machining cycles, maintaining consistent performance under demanding production schedules. Optional upgrades such as expanded tool capacity and automatic tool length measurement systems allow the DTC Series to scale with your evolving manufacturing requirements.
