How much does the DN Solutions NX 6500 II 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 NX 6500 II is listed as a double-column, bridge-type vertical machining center with 1,300 mm (51 in) of X, 650 mm (26 in) of Y and 500 mm (20 in) of Z, and a 15,000 rpm spindle. DN Solutions does not show it in its current lineup, so treat the listed figures as a checklist for a machine on offer and confirm them from its own documents.
On those figures the table is larger than the stroke: 1,500 x 700 mm (59 x 28 in), with a load capacity of 3,000 kg (6,614 lb). That is a high rating for travels of this size and fits the dense mould blocks a bridge machine is normally bought for. The machine itself is listed at 17,000 kg (37,479 lb), with overall dimensions of 4,000 x 3,400 x 3,400 mm (157 x 134 x 134 in).
The spindle is listed at 22 kW (30 hp) and 143 Nm (105 ft-lb) on a CT 40 taper, with 20,000 rpm as an option over the standard 15,000 rpm. Speed with modest torque is a finishing profile: small ball-nose cutters at high feed, not large face mills. Rapids are 36 m/min (1,417 ipm) on X and Y and 30 m/min (1,181 ipm) on Z, on roller linear guideways of 45 mm.
The magazine holds 30 tools, with 40 or 60 as options, and the tool change is listed at 1.2 sec tool-to-tool. The control is a FANUC 0i-MF Plus or, as an option, a Siemens 828D. Listed accuracy is 0.005 mm (0.0002 in) for positioning and 0.003 mm (0.00012 in) for repeatability.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Listed table load of 3,000 kg (6,614 lb) on a 1,500 x 700 mm (59 x 28 in) table
- 15,000 rpm spindle of 22 kW (30 hp), with 20,000 rpm listed as an option
- Double-column bridge structure on a machine listed at 17,000 kg (37,479 lb)
- Rapids of 36 m/min (1,417 ipm) on X and Y and 30 m/min (1,181 ipm) on Z
- 30 tools as listed, with 40 or 60 optional, and a 1.2 sec tool-to-tool change
Limitations
- Not shown in DN Solutions' current lineup, and the listed figures need confirming from the machine's documents
- Z travel is 500 mm (20 in), short for tall mould blocks with long tools
- 143 Nm (105 ft-lb) on a CT 40 taper limits heavy roughing
- 17,000 kg (37,479 lb) needs a floor and rigging plan sized for it

Frequently Asked Questions
01
No. DN Solutions does not show the NX 6500 II in its current lineup. The listed figures on this page are a starting point for checking a machine on offer: 1,300 mm (51 in), 650 mm (26 in) and 500 mm (20 in) of travel, a CT 40 spindle and a machine weight of 17,000 kg (37,479 lb). Confirm each against the nameplate and the manual.
02
The listed table load capacity is 3,000 kg (6,614 lb) on a 1,500 x 700 mm (59 x 28 in) table. The table is larger than the 1,300 mm (51 in) of X and 650 mm (26 in) of Y, so a block can be bigger than the area the spindle reaches. Check which faces actually need machining before assuming a part fits.
03
The standard spindle is listed at 15,000 rpm, 22 kW (30 hp) and 143 Nm (105 ft-lb) on a CT 40 taper. A 20,000 rpm spindle is listed as an option. Its power and torque are not given, so ask for them: a faster spindle often trades away low-speed torque.
04
The NX 6500 II is the larger of the two listed models, with 650 mm (26 in) of Y where the NX 5500 II has 550 mm (22 in). Both show 500 mm (20 in) of Z and a 22 kW (30 hp) spindle. The NX 6500 II is listed with a CT 40 taper and the NX 5500 II with BT 40 (BIG-PLUS), so tool holders may not interchange between them.
