How much does the DN Solutions SMX 2100 LS cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a mill-turn / multi-tasking machine in this class — not a quote from DN Solutions. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
Two identically rated spindles and 1,540 mm (61 in) of turning length are what the DN Solutions SMX 2100 LS adds up to. Each spindle is rated 5,000 rpm, 22 kW (30 hp) and 467 N·m (344 ft-lb); the chuck size is 8 in and the maximum turning diameter 600 mm (24 in).
A second spindle with the full rating of the first changes what the long bed is for. A shaft can be gripped at either end, so both ends are turned and milled complete instead of one end waiting for a second setup. Shorter parts can be cut on the first side, transferred, and cut on the back with the same speed and torque, which keeps roughing passes available after the hand-off. And with this much length in the work area, there is room for a milling head to reach a part held in either chuck.
The SMX 2100 L lists the same turning length and main-spindle torque at 16,200 kg (35,715 lb); the LS weighs 16,500 kg (36,376 lb). Length matters more than weight when planning the floor: the LS is 5,630 mm (222 in) long, 2,770 mm (109 in) wide and 2,777 mm (109 in) high. On a machine this long, the operation panel DN Solutions describes for the series, movable from side to side, swivelling and adjustable in height, is a practical detail, since setup may happen at either spindle.
If the parts are heavy as well as long, compare the SMX 2600 S, with a 10 in chuck, 660 mm (26 in) of turning diameter, 30 kW (40 hp) and 724 N·m (534 ft-lb) at 4,000 rpm. The SMX 2100 LS keeps the advantage in spindle speed.
The table has no rows for the milling spindle, the tool magazine or the axis travels. DN Solutions' series description adds B-axis and C-axis control in 0.0001-degree steps and a 12 station servo turret, without model-by-model detail.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Main and second spindle share one rating: 5,000 rpm, 22 kW (30 hp) and 467 N·m (344 ft-lb)
- 1,540 mm (61 in) of turning length, so long shafts can be finished at both ends in one cycle
- 600 mm (24 in) of turning diameter with an 8 in chuck leaves working room around the part
- Operation panel that moves side to side, swivels and adjusts in height, listed for the series, helps on a 5,630 mm (222 in) long machine
- Weighs 16,500 kg (36,376 lb), not far above the 16,200 kg (35,715 lb) of the SMX 2100 L
Limitations
- Needs 5,630 mm (222 in) of length before any space for loading long stock is added
- 467 N·m (344 ft-lb) per spindle on an 8 in chuck; the SMX 2600 S offers 724 N·m (534 ft-lb) with a 10 in chuck
- Milling-spindle speed, tool-magazine capacity and axis travels are not in the table for this model
- The series description mentions a 12 station servo turret but does not say whether the LS carries one

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Yes, as far as the table goes. The main spindle and the second spindle are each listed at 5,000 rpm, 22 kW (30 hp) and 467 N·m (344 ft-lb). The chuck size row gives 8 in. A part can therefore be roughed on either side of the transfer.
02
Maximum turning length is 1,540 mm (61 in) and maximum turning diameter is 600 mm (24 in). The SMX 2100, on the short bed, has 1,040 mm (41 in) of turning length with the same diameter and chuck size.
03
The SMX 2100 L lists the same 8 in chuck, 5,000 rpm and 467 N·m (344 ft-lb) at the main spindle and weighs 16,200 kg (35,715 lb). The SMX 2100 LS adds a second set of spindle rows with identical figures and weighs 16,500 kg (36,376 lb).
04
Floor length first: the machine is 5,630 mm (222 in) long, 2,770 mm (109 in) wide and 2,777 mm (109 in) high. Then the floor rating for 16,500 kg (36,376 lb). The table does not cover power supply or air, so get those requirements from DN Solutions along with the foundation drawing.
05
For heavy cuts, yes on the figures. The SMX 2600 S has a 10 in chuck, 30 kW (40 hp) and 724 N·m (534 ft-lb), with 660 mm (26 in) of turning diameter and the same 1,540 mm (61 in) turning length. Its spindle speed is 4,000 rpm, where the SMX 2100 LS runs to 5,000 rpm.
