Overview

The DN Solutions DNM 6700 XL is the extra-long variant of the 6700 platform, pushing X-axis travel to 2,100 mm (83 in) with a massive 2,200 x 670 mm table. This is the machine you buy when standard VMCs run out of X-travel and you don't want to step up to a double-column or gantry platform. At 83 inches of X-reach, you can machine parts that most shops would consider too long for a C-frame VMC.

The spindle specs stay consistent with the DNM family: ISO 40 taper, 8,000 RPM, 18.5 kW (25 hp), 117.8 Nm torque. Box-way construction is even more important on a machine with this much travel — the ways need to maintain rigidity and accuracy across 2.1 meters of linear motion. DN Solutions' way system design on the XL uses wider gibs and increased way contact area to handle the extended stroke without sacrificing precision.

At 10,000 kg, the DNM 6700 XL is the heaviest machine in the standard DNM line. That mass is distributed through the extended bed casting to maintain stiffness at every point along the X-axis. The 1,300 kg table load capacity means you can fixture long workpieces or set up multi-station production layouts that take full advantage of the available table area.

Shops in aerospace, energy, and structural fabrication gravitate toward this machine. Long aluminum extrusion profiles, rail components, large mold bases, and multi-part production fixtures all fit naturally. The 670 mm Y and 625 mm Z travels ensure you're not just getting length — you've got depth and cross-travel to handle substantial 3D geometry on those long parts.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

2,100 mm X-axis travel machines parts up to 83 inches long without creative fixturing or multiple setups
2,200 x 670 mm table provides enormous surface area for multi-station production layouts and long workpieces
10,000 kg machine weight delivers excellent vibration damping even at extreme X-axis positions
Box-way construction with extended way contact maintains accuracy across the full 2.1-meter travel range
Same DNM platform with proven Fanuc control — operators and programmers transfer skills instantly
1,300 kg table capacity handles heavy long parts and loaded multi-station fixtures

Limitations

Massive footprint requires serious floor space planning — the bed alone exceeds most standard VMCs by several feet
10,000 kg weight demands reinforced floor preparation and makes future relocation expensive
8,000 RPM spindle speed is conservative — shops doing high-speed aluminum work on long parts should consider alternatives
C-frame design at 2,100 mm X-travel introduces inherent overhang limitations compared to a double-column machine
Higher price than the L variant — make sure you genuinely need 2,100 mm vs 1,500 mm of X-travel

Best For

Aerospace shops machining long structural members, spar sections, and beam components up to 83 inches Energy sector manufacturers producing long turbine blades, generator components, and pipeline hardware Mold base manufacturers working with oversized mold frames that exceed standard VMC table lengths Shops doing multi-part production layouts where filling a long table with parts maximizes spindle utilization Rail and transportation manufacturers machining long structural and suspension components

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What does a DN Solutions DNM 6700 XL cost?

New pricing runs $140,000-$190,000 depending on options. The XL commands about $20,000-$25,000 more than the standard DNM 6700 L for the extended bed. For the travel it provides, it's significantly less expensive than stepping up to a double-column platform.

02 When should I choose a double-column machine over the DNM 6700 XL?

If you need rigidity at every point across a large table with no overhang, a double-column is superior. The DNM 6700 XL's C-frame design means the spindle head extends further from the column at maximum X-travel, which can affect rigidity during heavy cuts at the far end. For lighter finishing passes on long parts, the XL handles it fine.

03 How does accuracy hold up at 2,100 mm X-travel?

The box-way construction and heavier bed casting help maintain positioning accuracy across the full range. DN Solutions specs positioning accuracy within a few microns across the full travel with proper warm-up and temperature compensation. For tight-tolerance work at the extremes, probe-based verification at the cut location is recommended.

04 Can I add a 4th axis to the DNM 6700 XL?

The XL doesn't come with an integrated 4th-axis option like the DNM 6700 4TH. You can add an aftermarket rotary table to the large table surface, and the Fanuc 0i-Plus supports 4th-axis control. But if you need factory-integrated 4th axis, look at the DNM 6700 4TH or 6700 L 4TH instead.
