Overview

The DN Solutions DCM 2780 F II is the longest machine in the DCM 27-series column spacing, stretching to 8,250 mm of X-axis travel with an 8,100 x 2,200 mm table rated for a staggering 40,000 kg. When your workpiece weighs 40 tons and spans 8 meters, your machine options are limited — and the DCM 2780 F II is purpose-built for exactly this class of work.

This machine serves industries where part sizes are measured in meters, not millimeters: wind turbine blade mold production, large ship component machining, power generation equipment, mining truck frames, and the longest progressive dies in automotive stamping. The W-axis crossrail adds depth flexibility above the 700 mm Z-stroke, and auto-change head attachments handle the full range from aggressive roughing to precision finishing without manual intervention.

At 77,000 kg and 19,710 mm long, the DCM 2780 F II is one of the most substantial machines in DN Solutions' catalog. Despite the mass, rapids maintain 16/20/15 m/min on X/Y/Z through properly sized servo drives and ballscrews. The DSQ I/II/III die-spotting and contouring functions come standard. Ram-type spindle options configure the machine for specific application requirements. The 7,730 mm width matches the smaller DCM 27-series models — the columns and crossrail are the same platform, just bridging a longer bed. For the heaviest, longest workpieces in industrial manufacturing, this machine keeps the work in-house.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

8,250 mm X-travel and 8,100 mm table handle 8-meter-class workpieces in a single setup
40,000 kg table capacity is among the highest in the double-column VMC category
77,000 kg machine mass delivers outstanding vibration damping for heavy interrupted cuts
W-axis crossrail extends depth capability for deep mold cavities and structural features
Auto-change head system enables fully automated multi-operation machining programs
Proven DCM platform scaled to the largest envelope — same reliability as smaller models

Limitations

Nearly 20-meter length requires purpose-built facility space with specialized foundation
77,000 kg installation weight demands heavy-lift crane capacity and rigging expertise
Capital investment exceeds $1.2 million — justified only by consistent large-workpiece production
700 mm Z-stroke requires W-axis supplementation for deep-cavity work
Very limited secondary market for machines of this scale

Best For

Wind turbine blade mold manufacturers needing 8-meter-class machining capability Shipbuilding yards machining the largest marine structural components and mold sections Power generation equipment makers producing large turbine casings and generator frames Mining truck manufacturers machining oversized chassis frames and structural housings Automotive die builders producing the longest progressive dies for full body-in-white stampings

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What does the DN Solutions DCM 2780 F II cost?

New DCM 2780 F II machines typically run $1,200,000-$1,800,000 depending on configuration. Add foundation engineering, installation, and tooling costs for the total project budget, which can exceed $2 million.

02 How does the DCM 2780 F II compare to the DCM 3260 F II?

The DCM 3260 F II has wider column spacing (3,700 mm Y vs 3,200 mm) with a 2,700 mm table width versus 2,200 mm, and handles 39,000 kg. Despite similar X-travel (6,250 vs 8,250 mm), the 32-series is built for wider parts. Choose the 2780 for the longest parts; the 3260 for the widest.

03 What workpiece industries use the DCM 2780 F II?

Primarily wind energy (blade molds), marine/shipbuilding (hull and propeller molds), power generation (turbine components), heavy mining equipment (truck frames), and large-scale automotive die making. Any industry with 8-meter-class machining requirements.

04 What's the lead time on a DCM 2780 F II?

Machines of this scale are typically built to order with 12-18 month lead times. Factor in 3-6 months for foundation engineering and construction, plus 2-4 weeks for installation and commissioning.
