How much does the DN Solutions MV 5400 cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a vertical machining centers (vmc) in this class — not a quote from DN Solutions. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The DN Solutions MV 5400 is listed as a 50-taper, box-way vertical machining center with 1,050 mm (41.3 in) of X travel, 540 mm (21.3 in) of Y and 510 mm (20.1 in) of Z. DN Solutions does not show an MV 5400 in its current lineup, so read this page as a reference for a machine offered second-hand or named in an older quotation, and check every figure against the machine's own nameplate and manual.
The listed figures describe a heavy machine for its travels. The spindle is CAT 50 / BT 50 at 22 kW (30 hp) with 1,200 Nm (885 ft-lb) of peak torque, the guideways are hardened and ground box ways, and the machine weight is given as approximately 18,000 kg (39,683 lb). Standard top speed is 8,000 rpm, with 12,000 and 15,000 rpm listed as options. Rapid traverse is 20 m/min (787 ipm) on all three axes. Taken together those rows point to low-speed, high-torque cutting in steel and cast iron, not to fast positioning.
The table measures 1,200 x 540 mm (47.2 x 21.3 in) and the maximum workpiece weight is 1,500 kg (3,307 lb). The magazine holds 30 tools, or 40 as an option, with a chip-to-chip time of 4.5 sec. The control is listed as a Fanuc 31i-B and positioning accuracy as ±0.005 mm.
One caution on identity. The same table also carries a row for a VM 5400 with a 15.6 kW, 12,000 rpm spindle, which does not match the 22 kW (30 hp), 8,000 rpm rows given for the MV 5400. A machine of nearly the same travels in DN's present range, the MYNX 5400 50 II, is listed at 15 kW (20 hp), 286.5 N·m (211 ft-lb) and 7,500 kg (16,535 lb). Before relying on the torque or the weight above, establish exactly which model is on offer.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- CAT 50 / BT 50 spindle listed at 22 kW (30 hp) and 1,200 Nm (885 ft-lb) of peak torque
- Hardened and ground box ways on a machine listed at approximately 18,000 kg (39,683 lb)
- Maximum workpiece weight of 1,500 kg (3,307 lb) on a 1,200 x 540 mm (47.2 x 21.3 in) table
- 30 tools as listed with 40 as an option, plus 12,000 and 15,000 rpm spindle options
Limitations
- DN Solutions does not show the model in its current lineup, so the figures need confirming from the machine's own documents
- Rapid traverse is 20 m/min (787 ipm), slow for short-cycle work with many moves
- Standard top speed is 8,000 rpm; 12,000 and 15,000 rpm are listed only as options
- Y travel is 540 mm (21.3 in), so the listed mass does not come with a large work envelope

Frequently Asked Questions
01
DN Solutions does not show an MV 5400 in its current lineup. The figures on this page are the listed ones for the model and work best as a checklist: compare the travels of 1,050 mm (41.3 in), 540 mm (21.3 in) and 510 mm (20.1 in), the CAT 50 / BT 50 spindle and the Fanuc 31i-B control with the machine in front of you.
02
The listed spindle is CAT 50 / BT 50, 22 kW (30 hp), with 1,200 Nm (885 ft-lb) of peak torque and a standard top speed of 8,000 rpm. Options of 12,000 and 15,000 rpm are listed. Peak torque is a short-time figure, so ask for the continuous rating and the speed at which the torque applies before sizing cutters to it.
03
The table is listed at 1,200 x 540 mm (47.2 x 21.3 in) with a maximum workpiece weight of 1,500 kg (3,307 lb). Travels are 1,050 mm (41.3 in) in X, 540 mm (21.3 in) in Y and 510 mm (20.1 in) in Z. Long 50-taper tools and tall fixtures both use up Z, so check the clearance for the tallest setup.
04
30 tools as listed, with 40 as an option, and a chip-to-chip time of 4.5 sec. The table does not state the maximum tool diameter, length or weight, which matter with 50-taper tooling, so get those limits before planning large face mills or long boring bars.
