DMG Mori CMX 50 U vs Okuma GENOS M460V-5AX
DMG Mori vs Okuma · 5-Axis Machining Centers
Summary
The DMG Mori CMX 50 U and the Okuma GENOS M460V-5AX are compact 5-axis machining centers with 40-taper spindles and the same peak power, 22 kW (30 hp). The headline difference is X travel: 762 mm (30.0 in) on the Okuma against 500 mm (19.7 in) on the DMG Mori.
The Okuma is ahead on most rows as standard: 460 mm (18.1 in) of Y and Z travel against 450 mm (17.7 in) and 400 mm (15.7 in), 15,000 rpm against 12,000 RPM, 48 tools against 30, and rapids of 40 m/min in X-Y and 32 m/min in Z against 30 m/min (1,181 ipm). The DMG Mori closes two of those gaps with extra-cost options: 15,000 RPM and a 60-tool magazine.

Advantages
DMG Mori CMX 50 U
- 60-tool magazine available as an extra-cost option, above the Okuma's 48 (30 tools standard)
- A fit for buyers looking at a used compact 5-axis machine for small five-sided parts
Okuma GENOS M460V-5AX
- 762 mm (30.0 in) of X travel against 500 mm (19.7 in)
- 15,000 rpm as standard against 12,000 RPM (15,000 RPM is an option on the DMG Mori)
- 48 tools as standard against 30 tools
- Rapids of 40 m/min in X-Y and 32 m/min in Z against 30 m/min (1,181 ipm)
Verdict
On the published figures the Okuma GENOS M460V-5AX is the stronger standard machine: 762 mm of X travel, 15,000 rpm, 48 tools and faster rapids. It suits shops that want long parts or several setups along X without ordering options. The DMG Mori CMX 50 U fits small five-sided parts within 500 x 450 x 400 mm of travel, and makes sense where a 60-tool magazine is wanted as an option or a used compact 5-axis machine is the plan.
