This is our best estimate for a machine of this type and class, built from published prices of comparable 5-axis machining centers and typical dealer pricing. DN Solutions has not published a list price for the DN Solutions DNM 5AX 500 that we can cite. Treat it as a planning number, not a quote.

What moves the final price

  • Spindle, control and probing options
  • Tool changer capacity and tooling package
  • Automation — pallet changers, bar feeders, robot cells
  • Freight, rigging, installation and training
  • Region, dealer and time of year

Overview

The DN Solutions DNM 5AX 500 is a 40-taper 5-axis machining center with a 500 mm (19.7 in) table, 550 × 510 × 500 mm (21.7 × 20.1 × 19.7 in) of travel and a 12,000 RPM spindle. DN Solutions, formerly Doosan Machine Tools, does not show it in its current lineup, so it may be an older model. Treat the listed figures as a starting point and check the build sheet of any machine you are offered, because several rows are options.

The rotary axes are a B axis that tilts from -30° to +120° and a C axis that rotates through 360° continuously. A tilt that runs past the horizontal lets the tool reach undercut faces, and continuous C means a part can be indexed or contoured without unwinding. The table takes a workpiece up to 500 mm (19.7 in) in diameter and 350 kg (772 lb).

The spindle is a BBT 40 (BIG PLUS CAT 40) unit rated 18.5 kW (25 hp) and 117 Nm (86 ft-lb). The listed speed is 12,000 RPM with 15,000 RPM as an option, and the magazine is 30 tools with 40 or 60 optional, so two machines carrying this name can differ in both. Tool change is listed at 1.5 sec tool-to-tool. Rapids are 36 m/min (1,417 ipm) on X and Y and 30 m/min (1,181 ipm) on Z, and the control is a FANUC 31iB5.

The machine measures 3,400 x 3,200 x 3,200 mm (134 x 126 x 126 in) and weighs 9,500 kg (20,944 lb). The smaller DNM 350 5AX shares the 117 N·m (86 ft-lb) torque figure and the rapids but has 400 mm (16 in) of X, 435 mm (17 in) of Y and a 250 kg (551 lb) table load.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

  • B axis tilts from -30° to +120° and the C axis rotates 360° continuously
  • BBT 40 (BIG PLUS CAT 40) spindle rated 18.5 kW (25 hp) and 117 Nm (86 ft-lb)
  • 500 mm (19.7 in) table that carries 350 kg (772 lb)
  • Tool change is listed at 1.5 sec tool-to-tool
  • FANUC 31iB5 control is listed for the machine

Limitations

  • Not shown in DN Solutions' current lineup, so it may be an older model and a given machine's options need checking
  • 15,000 RPM is an option; the listed spindle speed is 12,000 RPM
  • The 40- and 60-tool magazines are options; 30 tools is the listed capacity
  • Z travel of 500 mm (19.7 in) has to cover the part, the fixture and the tool once the table is tilted

Frequently Asked Questions

01 Is the DNM 5AX 500 still a current model?

It does not appear in DN Solutions' current lineup, so it may be an older model. Anyone looking at one should treat the listed figures as a guide and confirm the actual spindle, magazine and control on the machine in question, since the table shows a 15,000 RPM spindle and 40- or 60-tool magazines as options alongside the 12,000 RPM, 30-tool base.

02 What are the rotary axis ranges on the DNM 5AX 500?

The B axis tilts from -30° to +120° and the C axis rotates through 360° continuously. The table is 500 mm (19.7 in) in diameter, takes a workpiece of the same maximum diameter and is rated for 350 kg (772 lb).

03 What spindle and tool magazine does the DNM 5AX 500 have?

The spindle is BBT 40 (BIG PLUS CAT 40), rated 18.5 kW (25 hp) and 117 Nm (86 ft-lb). It is listed at 12,000 RPM, with 15,000 RPM optional. The magazine holds 30 tools, with 40 or 60 as options, and the tool change is listed at 1.5 sec tool-to-tool.

04 How does the DNM 5AX 500 compare with the DNM 350 5AX?

The DNM 5AX 500 is larger in X and Y, with 550 mm (21.7 in) and 510 mm (20.1 in) against 400 mm (16 in) and 435 mm (17 in), and it carries 350 kg (772 lb) where the DNM 350 5AX carries 250 kg (551 lb). Both list 500 mm of Z, a 12,000 rpm spindle with 117 N·m (86 ft-lb) and rapids of 36 m/min (1,417 ipm) on X and Y. The DNM 350 5AX weighs 8,500 kg (18,739 lb) against 9,500 kg (20,944 lb).

05 What should be checked before buying a DNM 5AX 500?

Start with the rows that are options: whether the spindle is the 12,000 RPM or the 15,000 RPM version, and whether the magazine is 30, 40 or 60 tools. Then check the installation: the machine measures 3,400 x 3,200 x 3,200 mm (134 x 126 x 126 in) and weighs 9,500 kg (20,944 lb), which sets the rigging and floor requirements.
