Advantages
DN Solutions DVF 8000
- 1,000 x 900 x 685 mm of X/Y/Z travel against 200 x 340 x 300 mm
- 22/18.5 kW (30/25 hp) spindle against 10 kW (13 hp)
- 40 tools against 24
DN Solutions FM 200 5AX LINEAR
- Smaller footprint: 2,225 × 1,972 × 2,375 mm against 4,097 × 2,950 × 3,670 mm
- Lighter machine at 7,000 kg (15,432 lb) against 25,000 kg (55,116 lb)
- HSK-E40 spindle nose for small-tool work on implants, dental parts and watch components
Verdict
These machines serve different jobs. The FM 200 5AX is for small, precise parts such as orthopedic implants, dental crowns and abutments, watch components and small turbine blades, all within 200 mm of X travel. The DVF 8000 is for heavy, complex parts such as aerospace structure, mold bases and energy components that need 1,000 mm of X travel, 22/18.5 kW at the spindle and 40 tools.
