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

Built around a single casting, the DMG MORI DMU 105 monoBLOCK fits 1,135 mm (44.7 in) of X, 1,050 mm (41.3 in) of Y and 750 mm (29.5 in) of Z travel into a footprint DMG MORI gives as 193.8 ft². It is a 5-axis machining center with a swivelling rotary table, for workpieces up to 1,240 mm (48.8 in) in diameter, 690 mm (27.2 in) in height and 2,000 kg (4,409.2 lb).

The Highlights spend more words on structure than on anything else. The column is one piece, roller guideways of 2.2 in. run in all axes, the ball screws are given as ø 50 / 63 / 50, and the components were optimised by FEM. The swivelling rotary table is clamped. For a buyer this reads as a machine meant to hold position under cutting load with a 2,000 kg part on the table, though DMG MORI attaches no stiffness or accuracy figure to it.

Loading is by crane with up to 4,409 lb, described as unrestricted, and the machine sets up on a three-point support. The door opening is printed as 1,650 without a unit. Under precision, cooling measures, a high-performance coolant unit and multi-sensor compensation are standard, and an optional precision package is quoted with 25 % higher precision.

Spindle and magazine are described only by their upper limits. The spindle range goes up to 30,000 rpm or up to 317 ft lb, and the machine-integrated tool magazines up to 180 pockets. Neither the standard spindle nor the standard magazine is identified, so two machines sold under this name can differ a great deal.

A mill-turn version exists as the DMU 105 FD monoBLOCK, on the same travels. One size up in travel, the DMU 125 P duoBLOCK offers 1,250 mm (49.2 in) in X and Y with 1,000 mm (39.4 in) in Z.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

One-piece column with 2.2 in. roller guideways in all axes and ball screws of ø 50 / 63 / 50
Footprint of 193.8 ft² for a machine with 1,135 mm (44.7 in) of X travel
Unrestricted crane loading of up to 4,409 lb
Cooling measures, a high-performance coolant unit and multi-sensor compensation are standard
Spindle range reaches up to 30,000 rpm or up to 317 ft lb, depending on the spindle
Tool magazines with up to 180 pockets are integrated in the machine

Limitations

Neither the standard spindle nor the standard magazine size is identified in the listed data
Z travel of 750 mm (29.5 in) and a workpiece height of 690 mm (27.2 in) limit tall parts
Higher precision, quoted as 25 %, is an optional package
Maximum workpiece diameter of 1,240 mm (48.8 in) exceeds the 1,135 mm (44.7 in) X travel

Best For

5-axis milling of parts up to 2,000 kg (4,409.2 lb) loaded by crane Wide, low workpieces up to 1,240 mm (48.8 in) in diameter Shops that need 1,135 mm (44.7 in) of X on a 193.8 ft² footprint High-speed finishing if a spindle near 30,000 rpm is specified

Frequently Asked Questions

01 How much floor space does the DMU 105 monoBLOCK need?

DMG MORI gives a footprint of just 193.8 ft². The listed data does not say what that area includes, such as the chip conveyor, coolant unit or a larger tool magazine, and it gives no machine weight. Ask for the installation drawing of the configuration you intend to buy before planning the floor.

02 What does the monoBLOCK construction consist of?

DMG MORI describes one casting, a one-piece column with large slideways, 2.2 in. roller guideways in all axes, ball screws of ø 50 / 63 / 50 in all axes, FEM optimisation of all components and clamping of the swivelling rotary table. The ball screw figures are printed without a unit.

03 How is the DMU 105 monoBLOCK loaded?

By crane, with up to 4,409 lb, which DMG MORI calls unrestricted crane loading. The maximum workpiece is 1,240 mm (48.8 in) in diameter, 690 mm (27.2 in) high and 2,000 kg (4,409.2 lb). The door opening is listed as 1,650, with no unit given.

04 Which spindle and magazine come as standard?

The listed data does not say. It gives only the limits: a spindle range with up to 30,000 rpm or with up to 317 ft lb, and machine-integrated tool magazines with up to 180 pockets. Have the quotation state the spindle's speed, power and torque and the number of pockets.

05 Is there a turning version of the DMU 105 monoBLOCK?

Yes, the DMU 105 FD monoBLOCK, with the same travels of 1,135 mm (44.7 in), 1,050 mm (41.3 in) and 750 mm (29.5 in). DMG MORI lists table solutions for the size that run from 5-axis machining with up to 4,409 lb to complete machining with milling and turning with up to 2,950 ft lb.
