Overview

The DN Solutions SVM 5100 L is the long-table SVM: 1,270 mm (50 in) of X on only 510 mm (20 in) of Y and 510 mm (20 in) of Z, with a 1,320 × 510 mm (52 × 20 in) table and a machine weight of 6,500 kg (14,330 lb). It is a light machine with a long reach, and that combination decides what it should be used for.

Fifty inches of X normally comes with a much bigger machine. The MYNX 6500/II and the VM 6500 both pair 1,270 mm (50 in) of X with 670 mm (26 in) of Y and weigh 9,000 kg (19,842 lb). The SVM 5100 L gives up Y travel and mass to put the same X on a lighter base, and its table load of 800 kg (1,764 lb) reflects that. Long, slim parts are the fit: rails, bars, manifolds, or a row of vises running small parts in batches.

The spindle is ISO 40, with power listed as the pair 18.5/5.5 kW and torque of 95.5 N·m (70 ft-lb). The SVM 4100 shows the same torque with 18.5 kW (25 hp), so the two share a spindle class and differ in the frame around it. DN's table has no speed row for this model; its description of the series gives a maximum spindle speed of 12,000 r/min and calls the spindle direct-coupled.

Rapid traverse is 36 m/min (1,417 ipm), and DN points to high acceleration and deceleration on the feed axes, which pays off on a long table where the spindle spends much of the cycle travelling between parts. The machine measures 2,210 × 3,100 mm (87 × 122 in) in length and width and 2,681 mm (106 in) in height. Roller guideways with grease lubrication are standard for the series.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

1,270 mm (50 in) of X travel on a machine that weighs 6,500 kg (14,330 lb)
1,320 × 510 mm (52 × 20 in) table, longer than the X travel, for rows of vises
Rapid traverse of 36 m/min (1,417 ipm) for moves between parts along the table
Lighter than the 9,000 kg (19,842 lb) VM 6500, which has the same 1,270 mm (50 in) of X
Direct-coupled ISO 40 spindle with 95.5 N·m (70 ft-lb) of torque

Limitations

Y travel is 510 mm (20 in); the VM 6500 offers 670 mm (26 in) on the same X
Table load of 800 kg (1,764 lb) is modest for a table 1,320 mm (52 in) long
Spindle power is listed only as the pair 18.5/5.5 kW, with no speed row for the model
95.5 N·m (70 ft-lb) of torque and 6,500 kg (14,330 lb) of mass limit heavy roughing

Best For

Long, slim parts such as rails, bars and manifolds up to 1,270 mm (50 in) Batch work in several vises set along a 1,320 mm (52 in) table Light milling, drilling and tapping within 510 mm (20 in) of Y Shops that need 1,270 mm (50 in) of X without a 9,000 kg (19,842 lb) machine like the VM 6500

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What is the SVM 5100 L designed for?

DN describes the SVM series as machines for high-efficiency machining of lightweight workpieces, with high acceleration and deceleration on the feed axes. On this model that is combined with 1,270 mm (50 in) of X, 510 mm (20 in) of Y and an 800 kg (1,764 lb) table load, which suits long, light parts and multi-vise batch work more than heavy plates.

02 How does the SVM 5100 L differ from the SVM 4100?

Size. The SVM 5100 L has 1,270 mm (50 in) of X and 510 mm (20 in) of Y, about 65% more X than the 770 mm (30 in) of the SVM 4100, whose Y is 410 mm (16 in). Table load is 800 kg (1,764 lb) against 600 kg (1,323 lb) on the SVM 4100, and weight is 6,500 kg (14,330 lb) against 3,850 kg (8,488 lb). Z travel, torque and the 36 m/min (1,417 ipm) rapid are the same on both.

03 What does the 18.5/5.5 kW spindle power figure mean?

DN prints spindle power for this model as a pair, 18.5/5.5 kW, without saying in the table which rating is which. Pairs like this normally distinguish a short-time rating from a lower one, so ask DN for the duty cycle behind each number. Torque is listed as 95.5 N·m (70 ft-lb) and the taper as ISO 40.

04 Would a VM 6500 or MYNX 6500/II suit me better than the SVM 5100 L?

If the parts are wide or heavy, yes. The VM 6500 and the MYNX 6500/II both have 1,270 mm (50 in) of X with 670 mm (26 in) of Y and 625 mm (25 in) of Z, and each weighs 9,000 kg (19,842 lb). The MYNX 6500/II carries 1,300 kg (2,866 lb) and lists 286.5 N·m (211 ft-lb). The SVM 5100 L stays at 510 mm (20 in) of Y, 800 kg (1,764 lb) and 95.5 N·m (70 ft-lb).

05 What are the dimensions and weight of the SVM 5100 L?

DN lists 2,210 × 3,100 mm (87 × 122 in) in length and width, 2,681 mm (106 in) in height and a weight of 6,500 kg (14,330 lb). Plan space beyond those figures at the front for loading long parts and at the sides and rear for maintenance.
