Advantages
DN Solutions BM 2740
- 4,000 x 2,700 x 800 mm of travel against 1,050 x 570 x 460 mm
- 10,000 kg (22,046 lb) table load against 1,000 kg (2,205 lb)
- 420 N·m (310 ft-lb) of torque and an ISO 50 taper against 214 N·m (158 ft-lb) and ISO 40
- 4,000 × 2,500 mm (157 × 98 in) table for large plates, frames and mold bases
DN Solutions BVM 5700
- 37 kW (50 hp) spindle against 30 kW (40 hp)
- 42 m/min (1,654 ipm) rapids against 16 m/min (630 ipm)
- Far smaller machine: 7,500 kg (16,535 lb) and 3,080 × 2,560 × 2,890 mm against 45,000 kg (99,208 lb) and 5,535 × 10,825 × 4,436 mm
Verdict
These two DN Solutions machines fit different jobs. Choose the DN Solutions BM 2740 for large plates, frames and mold bases up to 10,000 kg (22,046 lb) that need 4,000 mm (157 in) of X travel and the torque of an ISO 50 spindle. Choose the DN Solutions BVM 5700 for die and mold cores and cavities within 1,050 x 570 x 460 mm, where 42 m/min (1,654 ipm) rapids and 37 kW (50 hp) shorten cycles. The BVM 5700 also needs far less floor space.
