Overview

The DMG Mori DMF 300|11 is the largest standard model in the DMF traveling-column series, delivering a massive 3,000 mm (118.1 in) of X-axis travel with 1,100 mm (43.3 in) on both Y and Z axes. This machine is built for the biggest parts in 5-axis machining — aerospace wing spars, large structural frames, energy sector turbine casings, and defense components that measure 3,600 mm (141.7 in) long and weigh up to 6,000 kg (13,228 lb).

The traveling-column design moves the spindle head along the 3-meter X-axis while the workpiece sits stationary on the table, maintaining full 6,000 kg table load at any X-position. Maximum workpiece dimensions are 3,600 mm long, 1,100 mm wide, 1,100 mm tall, and 1,400 mm (55.1 in) in diameter.

Spindle options range from 12,000 to 20,000 RPM with torque up to 430 Nm through SK50/HSK-A100 tapers. The SK50 taper option provides the tool rigidity needed for heavy roughing in titanium and Inconel at this scale. The FD variant adds mill-turn capability for complete machining of large rotational components.

The tool magazine holds up to 120 pockets with maximum 400 mm tool length (540 mm with HSK-A100). Linear motor options are available for the X-axis. Control options include Siemens Sinumerik ONE and Heidenhain TNC7 under CELOS X.

At this scale, the DMF 300|11 competes with large portal machines, floor-type boring mills, and gantry machines from builders like Jobs, Soraluce, and Parpas. The advantage of the DMF platform is that it delivers 5-axis trunnion-table capability with FD mill-turn in a footprint significantly smaller than a gantry machine with equivalent X-axis travel.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

3,000 mm X-axis travel handles the longest parts in 5-axis machining without a full gantry machine
6,000 kg table load capacity accommodates massive aerospace billets, structural frames, and energy components
SK50/HSK-A100 spindle option with 430 Nm torque provides the cutting force needed for heavy titanium and Inconel
FD mill-turn option enables complete machining of large rotational parts like turbine casings
Traveling-column design maintains full table load at any X-axis position
Up to 120-tool magazine supports complex multi-operation jobs
Smaller footprint than equivalent gantry machines with 3-meter X-axis travel

Limitations

Starting at $800K and commonly exceeding $1M configured, this is a major capital investment
3,000 mm X-axis travel requires extensive floor space and reinforced foundation
Machine weight and size require dedicated crane infrastructure for installation and workpiece loading
Long-part fixturing across 3 meters demands careful engineering to maintain accuracy
DMG Mori specialized service is required; availability of qualified technicians for this machine tier varies
Lead times on new orders can exceed 12-18 months

Best For

Aerospace OEMs machining long wing spars, fuselage frames, and large structural components Energy sector manufacturers cutting large turbine casings, generator frames, and heat exchanger components Defense manufacturers producing large structural components for naval and aerospace applications Heavy equipment manufacturers machining large frame components and structural members Shops needing 5-axis capability on parts exceeding 2 meters that would otherwise require a gantry machine

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What does a DMG Mori DMF 300|11 cost?

New DMF 300|11 machines price between $800,000 and $1,200,000 depending on spindle, control, FD option, and linear motor configuration. Fully configured with FD, SK50 spindle, and linear motors, the machine can exceed $1.1M.

02 How does the DMF 300|11 compare to the DMF 200|8?

The DMF 300|11 offers 50 percent more X-axis travel (3,000 vs 2,000 mm), significantly more Y and Z travel (1,100 vs 800/850 mm), and triple the table load (6,000 vs 2,000 kg). It also offers the SK50/HSK-A100 taper with 430 Nm torque. The DMF 200|8 is adequate for parts under 2 meters; the 300|11 handles the largest production parts.

03 Why choose the DMF over a gantry machine?

The DMF offers 5-axis trunnion-table kinematics with FD mill-turn capability in a smaller footprint than a gantry machine. Gantry machines offer even longer travel and sometimes better rigidity at extreme positions but cannot provide the rotary table functionality. For parts that benefit from workpiece rotation and mill-turn complete machining, the DMF is the better choice.

04 What foundation is required?

The DMF 300|11 requires a reinforced concrete foundation rated for approximately 30,000-40,000 kg total load including machine, workpiece, and dynamic forces. DMG Mori provides detailed foundation drawings. Overhead crane access rated for both machine installation and maximum workpiece weight is essential.

05 What spindle should I choose?

For aluminum and general-purpose work, the 20,000 RPM SK40/HSK-A63 option provides good speed and versatility. For heavy titanium and Inconel work, the 12,000-15,000 RPM SK50/HSK-A100 option with 430 Nm torque is the right choice. The larger taper provides the tool rigidity needed for aggressive material removal at this machine scale.
