How much does the DMG Mori CMX 600 v cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a vertical machining centers (vmc) in this class — not a quote from DMG Mori. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The DMG MORI CMX 600 V is the shortest of the CMX V vertical machining centers, with 600 mm (23.6 in) of X travel, 560 mm (22 in) of Y and 510 mm (20.1 in) of Z. Its travel is close to square in plan. The NV 4000, another DMG MORI vertical with 600 mm (23.6 in) of X, has 400 mm (15.7 in) in both Y and Z, so the CMX 600 V is the deeper and taller machine of the two.
Workpieces can measure up to 900 × 560 × 630 mm (35.4 × 22 × 24.8 in) and weigh up to 600 kg (1,322.8 lb). DMG MORI gives the table as 35.4 x 22.0 in. It is as deep as the Y travel, so the spindle reaches it from front edge to back edge, but it is longer than the 600 mm the X axis covers. A part that fills the table cannot be machined end to end in one clamping.
The machine is a C-frame in which the table is the X axis, so vise, fixture and part all ride on the moving axis and count against the 600 kg limit. DMG MORI describes the Y-axis concept as rigid over the whole range of travel. If a job will use all 560 mm (22 in) of Y, a test cut at full extension is the way to check that.
Positioning accuracy is stated as 6 µm in all axes according to ISO 230-2, without linear scales. The figure rests on ball-screws made to tolerance class IT 1 and on thermal compensation.
The footprint is 63.5 ft². Control is a choice of SIEMENS or HEIDENHAIN on a 19 in SLIMline multi-touch panel, or FANUC with MAPPS on a 15 in SLIMline panel. The Highlights for this model state no spindle speed, spindle power or tool magazine size, so take those from the quotation.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 560 mm (22 in) of Y travel on a 600 mm (23.6 in) X machine, against 400 mm (15.7 in) of Y on the NV 4000
- Positioning accuracy of 6 µm in all axes to ISO 230-2, reached without linear scales
- Table of 35.4 x 22.0 in for parts up to 1,322.8 lb
- Footprint of 63.5 ft² for the complete machine
- Control choice of SIEMENS, HEIDENHAIN or FANUC with MAPPS
Limitations
- X travel of 600 mm (23.6 in) is shorter than the 900 mm (35.4 in) maximum workpiece length, so full-length parts need a second clamping
- The 6 µm positioning figure is quoted without linear scales, and the Highlights name no scale option for this model
- The FANUC version has a 15 in panel instead of the 19 in multi-touch panel of the SIEMENS and HEIDENHAIN versions
- DMG MORI's Highlights give no spindle speed, spindle power or tool magazine figure for this model
- Workpiece weight is limited to 600 kg (1,322.8 lb), fixture included, on a table that moves in X

Frequently Asked Questions
01
600 mm (23.6 in) in X, 560 mm (22 in) in Y and 510 mm (20.1 in) in Z. Y and Z are the same across the series: the CMX 800 has 800 mm (31.5 in) of X and the CMX 1100 has 1,100 mm (43.3 in), both with 560 mm (22 in) of Y and 510 mm (20.1 in) of Z.
02
Up to 900 mm (35.4 in) long, 560 mm (22 in) wide and 630 mm (24.8 in) high, and up to 600 kg (1,322.8 lb). The X travel is 600 mm (23.6 in), so a 900 mm part is not reachable over its whole length in one setup. The maximum height is also greater than the 510 mm (20.1 in) of Z travel.
03
DMG MORI states an accuracy of positioning in all axes of 6 µm according to ISO 230-2, without linear scales. It also lists thermal compensation and ball-screws made in the first class of tolerances (IT 1).
04
SIEMENS, HEIDENHAIN or FANUC. The SIEMENS and HEIDENHAIN versions use a 19 in DMG MORI SLIMline multi-touch control panel. The FANUC version uses a 15 in SLIMline panel with MAPPS, which DMG MORI describes as giving 3D simulation with contour verification.
05
The travels are close. The CMX 600 V has 600 mm (23.6 in) of X, 560 mm (22 in) of Y and 510 mm (20.1 in) of Z. The DMV 60 has 600 mm (23.6 in) in both X and Y, and the same 510 mm (20.1 in) of Z. On the CMX 600 V the table is the moving X axis.
