How much does the DMG Mori DMU 100 P duoBLOCK 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 DMU 100 P duoBLOCK is a 5-axis machining center sized for tall, heavy parts and specified for hard cutting. Travels are 1,000 mm (39.4 in) in X, 1,250 mm (49.2 in) in Y and 1,000 mm (39.4 in) in Z. The workpiece may be up to 1,100 mm (43.3 in) in diameter, 1,600 mm (63 in) in height and 2,200 kg (4,850.2 lb).
Two spindles are named, and they answer different questions. The powerMASTER motorspindle is rated 737.6 ft lb and 103.3 hp. The 5X torqueMASTER is rated 1,328 ft lb and 69.7 hp, which is 80% more torque from about two thirds of the power. Power wins when metal removal rate in steel is the target; torque wins with large-diameter cutters and tough alloys at low speed. DMG MORI publishes no speed for either spindle and does not say which is the base equipment. A roughing package is listed with up to 50 % higher cutting power.
The proportions matter for fixturing. Permitted height is 1,600 mm while Z travels 1,000 mm, so a part that uses the full height cannot be covered along its whole length from one tool length; work out which faces the tool can get to before designing the fixture. The 1,100 mm diameter is likewise larger than the 1,000 mm of X.
Tools are held in a wheel magazine that DMG MORI describes as compact, with 453 tool pockets and a tool replenishment time of max. 5.6 sec. For thermal behaviour the feed drive is completely water-cooled and a spindle growth sensor (SGS) compensates for spindle growth. Machine availability is stated as 96 %.
Within the range the DMU 90 p duoBLOCK is the step below at 900 × 1,050 × 850 mm (35.4 × 41.3 × 33.5 in), and the DMU 95 monoBLOCK offers 950 mm (37.4 in) of X with 850 mm (33.5 in) of Y and 650 mm (25.6 in) of Z.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 5X torqueMASTER spindle with 1,328 ft lb and 69.7 hp for low-speed, high-torque milling
- powerMASTER motorspindle with 737.6 ft lb and 103.3 hp
- Workpieces up to 1,600 mm (63 in) in height and 2,200 kg (4,850.2 lb)
- Wheel magazine with 453 tool pockets and a tool replenishment time of max. 5.6 sec
- Completely water-cooled feed drive and a spindle growth sensor (SGS)
- Roughing package listed with up to 50 % higher cutting power
Limitations
- No spindle speed is published for the powerMASTER or the 5X torqueMASTER
- The 5X torqueMASTER has 69.7 hp against the 103.3 hp of the powerMASTER, so the higher torque comes with less power
- Z travel of 1,000 mm (39.4 in) is well short of the 1,600 mm (63 in) permitted workpiece height
- X travel of 1,000 mm (39.4 in) is less than the 1,100 mm (43.3 in) maximum workpiece diameter
- The gain of up to 50 % in cutting power is tied to the roughing package

Frequently Asked Questions
01
It depends on where the cut needs its strength. The powerMASTER motorspindle is listed with 737.6 ft lb and 103.3 hp, the 5X torqueMASTER with 1,328 ft lb and 69.7 hp. The torqueMASTER has 80% more torque, the powerMASTER about 48% more power. Neither has a published speed in the listed data, so get the speed range of both before deciding.
02
Up to 1,100 mm (43.3 in) in diameter, 1,600 mm (63 in) in height and 2,200 kg (4,850.2 lb). The axes travel 1,000 mm (39.4 in) in X, 1,250 mm (49.2 in) in Y and 1,000 mm (39.4 in) in Z. Height exceeds Z travel by a wide margin, so check tool reach on tall parts.
03
DMG MORI lists the wheel magazine with 453 tool pockets and a tool replenishment time of max. 5.6 sec. The listed data does not say whether 453 is the base size or the largest size, and gives no maximum tool length, diameter or weight, so confirm these against your longest and heaviest tools.
04
DMG MORI lists it with up to 50 % higher cutting power. The listed data does not describe its contents or the spindle it applies to. Since it is a package, it should appear as its own line on the quotation if heavy roughing is the purpose of the machine.
05
The DMU 90 p duoBLOCK travels 900 mm (35.4 in) in X, 1,050 mm (41.3 in) in Y and 850 mm (33.5 in) in Z. The DMU 100 P duoBLOCK is larger in each axis at 1,000 mm (39.4 in), 1,250 mm (49.2 in) and 1,000 mm (39.4 in).
