How much does the DMG Mori DMC 65 monoBLOCK 2nd Generation cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a 5-axis machining center in this class — not a quote from DMG Mori. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The DMG MORI DMC 65 monoBLOCK 2nd Generation is a 5-axis machining center with 735 × 650 × 560 mm (28.9 × 25.6 × 22 in) of travel, laid out so that automation can be attached without closing off the operator's side. DMG MORI's Highlights describe a door that opens to the left, which keeps the automation connection clear, and access to the work area, the tool magazine and the setup station from the front.
That layout is the point of the machine. Automation is offered from pallet handling and workpiece handling up to a robot connection, and DMG MORI states it can be retrofitted, so a shop can start with manual loading at the setup station and add handling later. Tool supply is sized for long unattended runs: the magazines are integrated in the machine and go up to 240 pockets.
Workpiece limits are 840 mm (33.1 in) in diameter, 500 mm (19.7 in) in height and 600 kg (1,322.8 lb). The weight is worth comparing with the DMU 65 monoBlock, which has the same travels and the same diameter and height limits but takes 1,000 kg (2,204.6 lb). Parts between those two weights belong on the DMU. The diameter limit is larger than the 735 mm (28.9 in) X travel, so the outside of a full-size part is reached by rotating it.
The structure is a single casting with a one-piece stand, 45 mm roller guides in all axes and ball screws of ø40 / 50 / 40 mm. DMG MORI states 4 µm positioning accuracy, and up to 30% higher volumetric accuracy with VCS Complete, alongside a cooling concept with multi-sensor compensation. The machine stands on a 3-point support. No spindle speed, power or torque is given in the Highlights for this model, so the spindle has to be chosen from the quotation.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Door opens to the left, so automation connects without blocking access from the front
- Machine-integrated tool magazines with up to 240 pockets
- Automation from pallet and workpiece handling to a robot connection, which DMG MORI states can be retrofitted
- 4 µm positioning accuracy, with up to 30% higher volumetric accuracy through VCS Complete
- One-piece stand with 45 mm roller guides in all axes and ball screws of ø40 / 50 / 40 mm
Limitations
- Workpiece weight is limited to 600 kg (1,322.8 lb); the DMU 65 monoBlock with the same travels takes 1,000 kg (2,204.6 lb)
- Maximum workpiece height is 500 mm (19.7 in), which rules out tall parts
- The Highlights give no spindle speed, power or torque for this model
- Only the largest magazine, up to 240 pockets, is stated; the pocket count of the base machine is not

Frequently Asked Questions
01
DMG MORI lists automation from pallet handling and workpiece handling to a robot connection, and states that it is also retrofittable. The door opens to the left so that the automation connection does not take away access: the work area, the tool magazine and the setup station are all reached from the front.
02
Up to 840 mm (33.1 in) in diameter, 500 mm (19.7 in) in height and 600 kg (1,322.8 lb). Travels are 735 mm (28.9 in) in X, 650 mm (25.6 in) in Y and 560 mm (22 in) in Z. The weight limit includes the fixture and anything else clamped with the part.
03
The Highlights state machine-integrated tool magazines with up to 240 pockets. That is the upper end; the number of pockets on the base machine is not given, so confirm the magazine size in the quotation. The magazine is reached from the front, like the work area and the setup station.
04
By X travel in the published data: the DMC 75 monoBLOCK 2nd Generation has 750 mm (29.5 in) against 735 mm (28.9 in) here, with the same 650 mm (25.6 in) of Y and 560 mm (22 in) of Z. Workpiece limits are identical at 840 mm (33.1 in) diameter, 500 mm (19.7 in) height and 600 kg (1,322.8 lb).
05
4 µm positioning accuracy, and up to 30% higher volumetric accuracy with VCS Complete. The supporting design features listed are a cooling concept with multi-sensor compensation, a one-piece stand, 45 mm roller guides in all axes and ball screws of ø40 / 50 / 40 mm.
