Overview

The DN Solutions SVM 4100 is a compact 40-taper vertical machining center with 770 mm (30 in) of X, 410 mm (16 in) of Y and 510 mm (20 in) of Z, an 18.5 kW (25 hp) spindle and a machine weight of 3,850 kg (8,488 lb). DN presents the SVM as a 410 mm Y-axis machine for high-efficiency machining of lightweight workpieces, and the figures agree with that description.

Start with the proportions. The table is 920 × 410 mm (36 × 16 in), so Y travel equals the depth of the table and the table is longer than the X travel. Z, at 510 mm (20 in), is longer than Y, which leaves room for a vise, a tall part and a long drill at the same time. Table load is 600 kg (1,323 lb), far more than the small parts this envelope suits are likely to weigh, so the limit that matters in practice is the 410 mm (16 in) of Y.

The spindle rows are 18.5 kW (25 hp), 95.5 N·m (70 ft-lb) and an ISO 40 taper. The model's own column in DN's table has no speed row; for the series DN gives a maximum spindle speed of 12,000 r/min and describes the spindle as direct-coupled. One rapid traverse figure is listed, 36 m/min (1,417 ipm), and DN attributes the machine's performance to high acceleration and deceleration rates on the feed axes. Grease lubrication for the roller guideways is standard.

The footprint is the other half of the argument: 2,171 × 2,250 mm (85 × 89 in) in length and width, and 2,661 mm (105 in) in height. The DNM 4500 S, with 800 mm (31 in) of X and 450 mm (18 in) of Y, weighs 5,000 kg (11,023 lb), so the SVM 4100 is about 23% lighter for an envelope only slightly smaller. That helps where floor loading is restricted or several machines stand side by side. It also means less mass behind a heavy cut, and the DNM 4500 S lists 117.8 N·m (87 ft-lb) against the 95.5 N·m (70 ft-lb) here.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

Small footprint of 2,171 × 2,250 mm (85 × 89 in) in length and width
3,850 kg (8,488 lb) machine weight, about 23% less than the 5,000 kg (11,023 lb) DNM 4500 S
18.5 kW (25 hp) spindle with an ISO 40 taper
510 mm (20 in) of Z travel on a machine with 410 mm (16 in) of Y
Direct-coupled spindle and grease-lubricated roller guideways as standard
600 kg (1,323 lb) table load on a 920 × 410 mm (36 × 16 in) table

Limitations

Y travel is 410 mm (16 in), which rules out wide plates and deep fixtures
Torque is 95.5 N·m (70 ft-lb), below the 117.8 N·m (87 ft-lb) of the DNM 4500 S
DN's table has no spindle speed row for this model; 12,000 r/min is the maximum given for the series
The table lists one rapid figure, 36 m/min (1,417 ipm), with no per-axis breakdown and no tool magazine row

Best For

Small and light parts within 770 × 410 mm (30 × 16 in) Drilling, tapping and light milling with 40-taper tooling Cells and tight floors where 2,171 × 2,250 mm (85 × 89 in) per machine counts Tall small parts that use the 510 mm (20 in) of Z

Frequently Asked Questions

01 How big a part fits on the SVM 4100?

Travels are 770 mm (30 in) in X, 410 mm (16 in) in Y and 510 mm (20 in) in Z. The table measures 920 × 410 mm (36 × 16 in) and is rated for 600 kg (1,323 lb). The Y figure is the one that decides most jobs: anything deeper than 410 mm (16 in) cannot be machined across its full depth in one setup.

02 What is the maximum spindle speed of the SVM 4100?

DN's comparison table gives this model 18.5 kW (25 hp), 95.5 N·m (70 ft-lb) and an ISO 40 taper, but no speed row. In its description of the SVM series DN states a maximum spindle speed of 12,000 r/min for the direct-coupled spindle. Confirm with DN that this is the speed supplied on the SVM 4100.

03 How does the SVM 4100 compare with the SVM 5100 L?

The SVM 5100 L is the longer machine: 1,270 mm (50 in) of X, 510 mm (20 in) of Y, a 1,320 × 510 mm (52 × 20 in) table, an 800 kg (1,764 lb) load and 6,500 kg (14,330 lb). The SVM 4100 has 770 mm (30 in) of X, 410 mm (16 in) of Y, a 600 kg (1,323 lb) load and weighs 3,850 kg (8,488 lb). Both have 510 mm (20 in) of Z, 95.5 N·m (70 ft-lb) of torque and a rapid traverse of 36 m/min (1,417 ipm).

04 Is the SVM 4100 or the DNM 4500 S the better fit for small parts?

The DNM 4500 S is the heavier and faster machine: 5,000 kg (11,023 lb), 15,000 rpm, 117.8 N·m (87 ft-lb), 450 mm (18 in) of Y and rapids of 42 m/min (1,654 ipm) on X and Y. The SVM 4100 weighs 3,850 kg (8,488 lb), has 410 mm (16 in) of Y and lists 95.5 N·m (70 ft-lb) with a rapid of 36 m/min (1,417 ipm). Both carry 600 kg (1,323 lb) on the table.

05 How much space does the SVM 4100 need?

DN lists the machine at 2,171 × 2,250 mm (85 × 89 in) in length and width and 2,661 mm (105 in) in height, at 3,850 kg (8,488 lb). Add room for the operator in front and for service access around the machine when laying out the floor.
