Overview

The DN Solutions DNM 5700 4TH takes the proven DNM 5700 platform — one of the most popular mid-to-large VMCs in the world — and adds a factory-integrated fourth axis for simultaneous 4-axis machining capability. With 1,050 x 570 x 510 mm (41 x 22 x 20 in) of travel, a 1,000 kg table load capacity, and box-way construction, this is a serious 4-axis platform for shops machining multi-sided parts in the mid-size range.

The spindle runs at 8,000 RPM with 18.5 kW (25 hp) and 117.8 Nm of torque through an ISO 40 taper. Rapid traverse hits 42 m/min on X and Y, 36 m/min on Z — fast enough to keep 4-axis cycle times competitive, since indexed work involves frequent repositioning. The factory fourth-axis integration means the FANUC 0i-Plus control natively handles rotary axis moves, coordinate transformations, and simultaneous 4-axis interpolation without the post-processor headaches that aftermarket rotary tables sometimes create.

The 1,050 x 570 mm table is the key advantage over the smaller DNM 4500 4TH — there's significantly more room for the rotary table plus workpiece, and the 570 mm Y-travel gives more clearance when the part is indexed to positions where it extends further from center. At 6,500 kg, the DNM 5700 4TH delivers box-way rigidity through every index angle, keeping surface finish and accuracy consistent regardless of cutting direction. For job shops, aerospace manufacturers, and mold builders that regularly machine parts on multiple faces, this machine eliminates re-fixturing and the accuracy losses that come with it.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

1,050 x 570 mm table provides generous room for the integrated rotary table plus workpiece — no cramped work zone
Factory-integrated fourth axis with native FANUC control support for simultaneous 4-axis interpolation
Box-way construction delivers consistent rigidity across all index positions — surface finish doesn't change with orientation
1,000 kg table load capacity handles heavy rotary setups and substantial workpieces
42 m/min rapids keep 4-axis cycle times competitive during frequent index repositioning
Proven 30,000+ installed DNM platform — parts, service, and operator expertise are readily available

Limitations

8,000 RPM spindle speed limits high-speed aluminum work — 12K and 15K RPM options add cost
510 mm Z-travel gets tighter with the rotary table height subtracted from the usable range
Significant price premium over the standard DNM 5700 for the integrated fourth axis
Box-way maintenance requirements (lubrication, adjustment) add to ongoing operational costs

Best For

Job shops regularly machining multi-sided parts in the 500-1,000 mm size range Aerospace manufacturers producing structural brackets, fittings, and components with features on multiple faces Mold and die shops machining electrodes and mold components with angular features and complex geometry Production shops looking to reduce setups and improve accuracy by machining multiple sides in a single fixturing Shops upgrading from the DNM 4500 4TH that need more table space and Y-travel for larger 4-axis work

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What does a DN Solutions DNM 5700 4TH cost?

New DNM 5700 4TH machines run $110,000-$160,000. The base machine with 8K RPM spindle and integrated fourth axis starts around $110,000-$130,000. Adding a higher-speed spindle, through-spindle coolant, probing, and chip conveyor pushes pricing to $140,000-$160,000. The premium over a standard DNM 5700 is roughly $20,000-$30,000.

02 How does the DNM 5700 4TH compare to a horizontal machining center?

An HMC provides superior chip evacuation, better multi-face access, and pallet-change automation. The DNM 5700 4TH costs significantly less (roughly half an entry-level HMC), offers more Z-clearance for tall parts, and can still do standard 3-axis work when the fourth axis isn't needed. For shops that don't justify an HMC's price and footprint, the DNM 5700 4TH covers most multi-sided work effectively.

03 Does the integrated fourth axis support simultaneous machining?

Yes. The factory integration with the FANUC 0i-Plus control supports full simultaneous 4-axis interpolation — not just indexing. This enables continuous rotary contouring, wrap-around machining, and complex angular approach cuts that indexed-only setups can't perform.

04 How much Z-clearance do I lose with the rotary table?

The rotary table and mounting typically consume 100-150 mm of the 510 mm Z-travel, leaving approximately 360-410 mm of usable Z-depth depending on the specific rotary table configuration. For parts requiring more Z-depth during 4-axis work, consider the DNM 6700 4TH with its 625 mm Z-travel.
