How much does the DMS Bryce3 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the DMS Bryce3 that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.
Overview
The DMS Bryce3 is a 3-axis moving-bridge CNC router offered across a range of sizes instead of one fixed frame. The data sheet gives the strokes as minimum and maximum: 5 ft to 6 ft on X, which DMS defines as the bridge axis, and 5 ft to 12 ft on Y. DMS describes it as a low Z 3-axis workhorse, so within the 3-axis line this is the machine for flat stock.
Motion is rack and pinion, with absolute encoders on every motor and a Fagor 8065 control. Stated accuracy is 0.0025-0.005 in (0.064-0.127 mm). That band suits panel, sheet and pattern routing better than close-tolerance metal work, and a buyer with a tighter requirement should ask DMS where in the band a given configuration lands.
Spindle choice sets the character of the machine. DMS lists Hiteco MT200, MT201, PT300 and PT400 units covering 4.5-13 kW S1, up to a ceiling of 13 kW S1 / 15 kW S6 and 24,000 rpm. Tools are changed from a rack, a carousel or by hand, with a maximum of 10 on the changer. A C-axis is optional.
Table sizes run 5 ft wide by 5, 10, 12, 15, 20 or 25 ft long, or 6 ft wide by 10 or 12 ft. Set beside the Redwood3, which takes spindles up to 18 kW S1 and X strokes up to 20 ft, the Bryce3 is the narrower machine with the smaller spindle range. Every figure on this sheet is a range or a limit, so the quotation is what fixes the travel, spindle and tool changer of an actual machine.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Spindle range of 4.5-13 kW S1 across four Hiteco units (MT200, MT201, PT300, PT400), all within a 24,000 rpm limit
- Tables from 5 ft x 5 ft to 5 ft x 25 ft, plus 6 ft x 10 ft and 6 ft x 12 ft, cover single sheets and long nests
- Absolute encoders on all motors and a Fagor 8065 control
- Tool changing by rack, carousel or manual, with up to 10 tools
- A C-axis is available as an option on the same frame
Limitations
- X stroke tops out at 6 ft, so wide panels and parts belong on the Redwood3, whose X range reaches 20 ft
- Maximum spindle power is 13 kW S1 / 15 kW S6; the Teton3 and Redwood3 go to 18 kW S1 / 21 kW S6
- Stated accuracy is 0.0025-0.005 in (0.064-0.127 mm), and the data sheet lists no feedback scales for this model
- The tool changer holds 10 tools at most

Frequently Asked Questions
01
DMS lists tables 5 ft wide in lengths of 5, 10, 12, 15, 20 or 25 ft, and 6 ft wide in lengths of 10 or 12 ft. The stroke table gives X, the bridge axis, as 5 ft minimum and 6 ft maximum, and Y as 5 ft minimum and 12 ft maximum. Confirm the stroke that goes with a particular table when you ask for a quotation.
02
The units listed are the Hiteco MT200, MT201, PT300 and PT400. Together they span 4.5-13 kW on the S1 rating, and the maximum for the model is 13 kW S1 / 15 kW S6 at up to 24,000 rpm. The data sheet does not say which unit is the base fitment, so treat the spindle as a line on the quotation.
03
The transmission is rack and pinion. All motor encoders are absolute, and the control is a Fagor 8065. Where the Teton3 and Redwood3 list linear scales as an option, the Bryce3 data sheet lists none.
04
Both are rack-and-pinion 3-axis routers with a Fagor 8065. The Bryce3 has an X range of 5 ft to 6 ft and spindles up to 13 kW S1. The Redwood3 has an X range of 5 ft to 20 ft, a Y range up to 100 ft, spindles up to 18 kW S1 and Z strokes of 36 in or 48 in, where DMS describes the Bryce3 as a low Z machine.
