Our best estimate for a vertical machining centers (vmc) in this class — not a quote from DMG Mori. Configuration moves it a long way.

Overview

The DMG MORI ecoMill 70 is a vertical machining center listed with 700 × 500 × 450 mm (27.6 × 19.7 × 17.7 in) of travel and an 800 x 500 mm (31.5 x 19.7 in) table that carries 500 kg (1,102 lb). DMG MORI does not show it in its current lineup, so it is probably an older model. Take the listed figures as a starting point and check them against the machine's own documents.

Set beside the ecoMill 50, this is the same listed spindle in a bigger frame. The ecoMill 50 is listed with 500 × 400 × 400 mm of travel and a 600 x 400 mm table, against 700 × 500 × 450 mm and 800 x 500 mm here. Both show 15,000 rpm, 11 kW (14.8 hp), 70 Nm and a 36 m/min (1,417 ipm) rapid traverse. What the larger model adds is room for longer parts and more fixtures in a row. It does not add cutting force.

The spindle taper is listed as SK40 and the magazine as 24 tools, with 30 as an option. 70 Nm at the spindle suits end mills and drills of small to medium diameter at high speed. Large face mills and big taps in steel will reach the torque limit long before they run out of travel. With 450 mm (17.7 in) of Z, tall fixtures and long tools compete for the same stroke.

The remaining listed figures are a positioning accuracy of 0.008 mm (8 µm), a weight of 5,200 kg (11,464 lb) and two controls, Siemens Sinumerik 828D and Fanuc 0i-MF. A machine that is already built carries only one of those controls, and it decides which programs, posts and operator habits carry over.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

700 × 500 × 450 mm (27.6 × 19.7 × 17.7 in) of listed travel, larger in every axis than the 500 × 400 × 400 mm of the ecoMill 50
800 x 500 mm (31.5 x 19.7 in) table with a listed load of 500 kg (1,102 lb)
Listed spindle of 15,000 rpm on SK40 with 11 kW (14.8 hp) and 70 Nm
Magazine listed at 24 tools, with 30 available as an option
36 m/min (1,417 ipm) rapid traverse

Limitations

No longer shown in DMG MORI's current lineup; the listed figures are unconfirmed and must be checked on the machine
Spindle torque of 70 Nm is unchanged from the smaller ecoMill 50, so the bigger envelope does not come with more cutting force
The table is 800 mm long against 700 mm of X travel, leaving part of its length outside the spindle's reach
Two controls are listed, Siemens Sinumerik 828D and Fanuc 0i-MF, and programs do not move freely between them

Best For

Medium-size plates and housings inside 700 × 500 × 450 mm (27.6 × 19.7 × 17.7 in) Rows of vises or multi-part fixtures along the 800 mm (31.5 in) table High-speed work with small and medium cutters at up to 15,000 rpm Fixture and part combinations up to the listed 500 kg (1,102 lb)

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What is the difference between the ecoMill 70 and the ecoMill 50?

Size. The ecoMill 70 is listed with 700 × 500 × 450 mm of travel, an 800 x 500 mm table and 24 tools. The ecoMill 50 is listed with 500 × 400 × 400 mm, a 600 x 400 mm table and 20 tools. The listed spindle figures are the same for both: 15,000 rpm, 11 kW (14.8 hp) and 70 Nm, with a 36 m/min (1,417 ipm) rapid traverse.

02 Is the ecoMill 70 a current DMG MORI model?

It is not in the current lineup and is probably an older model, which means a buyer is assessing a machine that already exists. Ask for its manual and data plate and compare them with the listed figures here, starting with the travels of 700 × 500 × 450 mm, the SK40 taper and the control fitted.

03 What are the table size and load of the ecoMill 70?

The table is listed at 800 x 500 mm (31.5 x 19.7 in) with a load of 500 kg (1,102 lb). Its 500 mm depth matches the Y travel. Its length is greater than the 700 mm (27.6 in) of X travel, so a fixture that fills the table cannot be reached over its whole length.

04 How many tools does the ecoMill 70 carry, and on which taper?

The listed magazine holds 24 tools, with 30 as an option, and the spindle taper is SK40. Tool length, diameter and weight limits are not among the listed figures. Since the magazine size was chosen when the machine was built, check which one is fitted.

05 What does the ecoMill 70 weigh, and which control does it have?

The listed weight is 5,200 kg (11,464 lb), the figure a rigger and the floor plan need. The control is listed as Siemens Sinumerik 828D or Fanuc 0i-MF. Only one is installed on any given machine, so confirm it before assuming existing programs will run.
