How much does the DMG Mori DMU 340 P FD 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 340 P FD is the step above the DMU 270 P FD in DMG MORI's mill-turn gantry machines: 3,400 × 3,400 × 2,000 mm (133.9 × 133.9 × 78.7 in) of travel for workpieces up to 3,900 mm (153.5 in) in diameter, 1,960 mm (77.2 in) in height and 20,000 kg (44,092.5 lb).
Z travel is the figure to notice. At 2,000 mm it is slightly more than the 1,960 mm maximum part height, so the head can clear the top of the tallest workpiece the machine accepts. The DMU 270 P FD offers 1,600 mm (63 in) of Z. DMG MORI also describes the milling head as having a short and continuous throat depth, with no ram. The cross beam itself moves vertically, with hydraulic weight compensation, so the head does not hang further out as it goes down, and the tool is supported the same way at the top of a part as at the table.
The DirectDrive table turns the workpiece with up to 7,523 ft lb, and grinding is listed as an integrated technology. Twenty tonnes on a turning table is a different job from twenty tonnes on a fixed bed: balance and clamping of the part decide how much of the table's speed can be used, and the listed data gives no table speed to plan with.
Axis performance is set for mass. Feed speed is up to 1,575 ipm, feed power up to 11,240 lbf and the dynamics up to 16.4 ft/s². Milling spindles are a powerMASTER motor spindle with up to 737.6 ft lb or a torqueMASTER gear spindle with 1,327.6 ft lb. Up to 243 tools sit in a wheel type magazine, a band filter unit with 2,500 l is standard, and DMG MORI states that the 3-point supported bed needs no foundation.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Z travel of 2,000 mm (78.7 in) covers the full 1,960 mm (77.2 in) maximum part height
- Carries workpieces up to 20,000 kg (44,092.5 lb) and 3,900 mm (153.5 in) in diameter
- No-ram milling head with a short and continuous throat depth, on a vertically moving cross beam
- DirectDrive table with up to 7,523 ft lb for turning and milling in one setup
- Feed power up to 11,240 lbf, with a 1,327.6 ft lb torqueMASTER gear spindle for heavy cuts
- 3-point support with no foundation required, according to DMG MORI
Limitations
- Feed speed tops out at 1,575 ipm and dynamics at 16.4 ft/s², figures sized for heavy parts, not for fast contouring
- X and Y travel of 3,400 mm (133.9 in) is less than the 3,900 mm (153.5 in) diameter limit, so the outer zone of a full-size part needs table rotation
- DMG MORI states no speed or power for either spindle and no speed for the turning table
- A band filter unit with 2,500 l and a 20,000 kg part capacity mean a large installation to plan, even without a foundation

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Travels are 3,400 mm (133.9 in) in X, 3,400 mm (133.9 in) in Y and 2,000 mm (78.7 in) in Z. The maximum workpiece is 3,900 mm (153.5 in) in diameter, 1,960 mm (77.2 in) high and 20,000 kg (44,092.5 lb). The diameter limit is larger than the X and Y travel, so features near the rim are machined by rotating the table.
02
DMG MORI describes a short and continuous throat depth of the milling head with no ram design. Vertical movement comes from the cross beam, which travels up and down with hydraulic weight compensation. The head therefore keeps the same overhang over the whole 2,000 mm (78.7 in) of Z, where a ram would extend further from its support the deeper it reaches.
03
DMG MORI lists feed speed up to 1,575 ipm, feed power up to 11,240 lbf and dynamics up to 16.4 ft/s². The feed drive is water-cooled and the linear guideways are cooled, which DMG MORI ties to long-term accuracy together with active spindle growth control.
04
The Highlights name a powerMASTER motor spindle with up to 737.6 ft lb and a torqueMASTER gear spindle with 1,327.6 ft lb. Tools are held in a wheel type magazine with up to 243 places. Spindle speed, spindle power and the standard magazine size are not stated, so confirm them in the quotation.
05
The layout is different. The DMU 340 Gantry has a long rectangular envelope of 6,000 × 2,800 × 1,500 mm (236.2 × 110.2 × 59.1 in). The DMU 340 P FD is square in plan at 3,400 × 3,400 mm with 2,000 mm of Z, and it adds a DirectDrive turning table with up to 7,523 ft lb for round parts.
