Overview

The DMG MORI DMF 400|11 FD stretches the DMF platform to 4,000 mm (157.5 in) of X travel, with 1,100 mm (43.3 in) of Y and 1,050 mm (41.3 in) of Z. Its workpiece limit is 4,600 mm (181.1 in) in length, 1,100 mm (43.3 in) in width and height, and 8,000 kg (17,637 lb). Length is the whole point of this model: the DMF 300|11 FD has the same Y and Z with 3,000 mm (118.1 in) of X, and the DMF 600|11 FD goes on to 6,000 mm (236.2 in).

Four metres of travel can be spent in different ways. One is a single long component such as a structural beam, a machine bed element or a long mould plate, machined in 4 axes with the B-axis. Another is to divide the area: DMG MORI offers a partition wall as an option to reduce downtime, so one side can be reloaded during cutting on the other. A third is to add the integrated rotary table, also optional, for 5-axis machining of parts up to 1,400 mm (55.1 in) in diameter. Mill-Turn technology is listed as an option as well.

On an axis this long the drive and its temperature decide how well a bore at one end lines up with a bore at the other. The Highlights name a dynamic package with linear drive in the X-axis and higher acceleration and feed rate in X, Y and Z, without marking it as optional for this model, so check whether the quoted machine has it. Ball screws are ground and driven through helical toothed belts, and the cooling measures include internally cooled ball screws. The bed is one cast iron piece with 3 linear guideways in X.

Spindles span 12,000 to 20,000 rpm and up to 430 Nm, in SK40 / HSK-A63 and SK50 / HSK-A100. The magazine takes up to 120 tools of up to 400 mm length, 540 mm with HSK-A100, and changes them outside the working area.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

4,000 mm (157.5 in) of X travel with parts up to 4,600 mm (181.1 in) long
Workpiece weight up to 8,000 kg (17,637 lb)
Dynamic package with linear drive in the X-axis is named in the Highlights for this model
Internally cooled, ground ball screws for thermal stability over the long axis
Optional integrated rotary table for 5-axis machining of parts up to 1,400 mm (55.1 in) in diameter
Spindles up to 430 Nm, with SK50 / HSK-A100 tools up to 540 mm long

Limitations

Y and Z travel are no larger than on the DMF 300|11 FD: 1,100 mm (43.3 in) and 1,050 mm (41.3 in)
5-axis machining and Mill-Turn technology both depend on options
The partition wall is optional, and the size of the two zones is not stated for this model
No spindle power figure is published, only the speed range and the maximum torque

Best For

Single long components up to 4,600 mm (181.1 in) and 8,000 kg (17,637 lb) Alternating loading in two zones with the optional partition wall Long parts with features at both ends that must line up in one clamping Mixed work: long parts on the fixed table, round parts up to 1,400 mm (55.1 in) on the optional rotary table

Frequently Asked Questions

01 How long a part can the DMF 400|11 FD machine?

The maximum workpiece length is 4,600 mm (181.1 in) and X travel is 4,000 mm (157.5 in). Width and height may each be up to 1,100 mm (43.3 in), and the weight limit is 8,000 kg (17,637 lb). Features on a full-length part that lie beyond the X travel need a second look before the job is accepted.

02 Is the linear drive in X standard on the DMF 400|11 FD?

DMG MORI's Highlights for this model name a dynamic package with linear drive in the X-axis and higher acceleration and feed rate in X, Y and Z. The line carries no 'optional' note here, but it does not say 'standard' either. Treat it as something to confirm in the quotation.

03 How does the DMF 400|11 FD compare with the DMF 300|11 FD and the DMF 600|11 FD?

In travel, only X differs. The DMF 300|11 FD has 3,000 mm (118.1 in), the DMF 400|11 FD 4,000 mm (157.5 in) and the DMF 600|11 FD 6,000 mm (236.2 in). All three have 1,100 mm (43.3 in) of Y and 1,050 mm (41.3 in) of Z.

04 Can the DMF 400|11 FD do 5-axis machining and turning?

With options. Standard operation is 4-axis machining with the B-axis. An integrated rotary table for 5-axis machining is optional, and so is Mill-Turn technology. The listed maximum workpiece diameter is 1,400 mm (55.1 in).

05 Which spindles and tools does the DMF 400|11 FD use?

Spindles from 12,000 to 20,000 rpm and up to 430 Nm, with SK40 / HSK-A63 or SK50 / HSK-A100 interfaces. The tool magazine has up to 120 pockets. Tool length is up to 400 mm, or 540 mm with HSK-A100.
