Overview

The DN Solutions DNM 200 is a small 5-axis vertical machining center built around a 200 mm (8 in) rotary table. Linear travels are 400 × 435 × 500 mm (16 × 17 × 20 in), the spindle runs to 12,000 rpm with 118 N·m (87 ft-lb) of torque, and the magazine holds 30 tools. DN describes the series as offering full 5-axis or 5-face machining.

Start with the table. At 200 mm (8 in) in diameter and a 40 kg (88 lb) load limit, it is meant for parts that can be carried in one hand: medical and dental components, small housings, impellers and fittings. The 40 kg has to cover the chuck or fixture as well as the part, so heavy workholding uses up the allowance fast. The two rotary axes are listed at 20 rpm on A and 30 rpm on C.

The spindle is direct-coupled, which DN says keeps noise and vibration down, and the linear axes run on roller-type LM guideways. Its 118 N·m (87 ft-lb) is in line with the three-axis DNM 4000, which lists 117 N·m (86 ft-lb) at the same 12,000 rpm, so the small table does not come with a weaker spindle. Rapids are 36 m/min (1,417 ipm) on X and Y and 30 m/min (1,181 ipm) on Z.

For its work envelope this is not a small installation. It weighs 5,500 kg (12,125 lb), against 3,300 kg (7,275 lb) for the DNM 4000, and measures 2,836 × 2,465 mm (112 × 97 in) on the floor. Height is 3,300 mm (130 in), so check door openings and overhead clearance before delivery. DN's table gives no spindle power or taper for this model.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

Two rotary axes on a 200 mm (8 in) table allow 5-axis or 5-face machining in one clamping
12,000 rpm direct-coupled spindle with 118 N·m (87 ft-lb) of torque
30-tool magazine covers roughing, finishing and drilling tools for multi-face jobs
Roller-type LM guideways on the linear axes
500 mm (20 in) of Z travel gives room for tool length above a tilted part

Limitations

Table load is 40 kg (88 lb) including the fixture, so workholding has to be light
The 200 mm (8 in) table diameter limits part size regardless of the 400 × 435 mm (16 × 17 in) X and Y travels
A and C turn at 20 rpm and 30 rpm, which limits how quickly a part is reoriented between faces
At 3,300 mm (130 in) high and 5,500 kg (12,125 lb) it needs more headroom and floor capacity than the envelope suggests
DN's table lists no spindle power or taper for this model

Best For

Small 5-axis parts that fit a 200 mm (8 in) table 5-face machining of small housings and blocks in one setup Medical, dental and instrument parts under 40 kg (88 lb) with fixture Small-tool finishing at up to 12,000 rpm

Frequently Asked Questions

01 How big a part can the DNM 200 take?

The rotary table is 200 mm (8 in) in diameter and carries 40 kg (88 lb), fixture included. Linear travels are 400 mm (16 in) in X, 435 mm (17 in) in Y and 500 mm (20 in) in Z. In practice the table diameter and the load limit decide the part size, not the travels.

02 Is the DNM 200 a full 5-axis machine?

DN describes the series as offering full 5-axis or 5-face machining, and the table lists two rotary axes, A at 20 rpm and C at 30 rpm. That wording covers both simultaneous cutting and positioned 5-face work, so confirm with DN which of the two the quoted control configuration supports.

03 How does the DNM 200 compare with the DNM 4000?

The DNM 4000 is a three-axis machine with 520 × 400 × 480 mm (20 × 16 × 19 in) travels, a 400 kg (882 lb) table load and 48 m/min (1,890 ipm) rapids at 3,300 kg (7,275 lb). The DNM 200 adds A and C axes, carries 40 kg (88 lb), and weighs 5,500 kg (12,125 lb). Both spindles run to 12,000 rpm with near-identical torque.

04 How many tools does the DNM 200 carry?

The table lists a tool capacity of 30. On 5-face work that is usually enough to keep roughing, finishing, drilling and tapping tools for several part numbers loaded together, which cuts the setup time between small batches.

05 What does the DNM 200 need for installation?

DN lists 2,836 × 2,465 × 3,300 mm (112 × 97 × 130 in) as length, width and height and a machine weight of 5,500 kg (12,125 lb). The 3,300 mm (130 in) height is the dimension most likely to clash with a doorway or a low ceiling.
