Overview
The DN Solutions SVM 5100 L is a long-bed vertical machining center built for shops that need serious X-axis travel without jumping to a bridge-type machine. With 1,270 mm (50 in) of X travel, 510 mm (20.1 in) on Y, and 510 mm on Z, it covers long rectangular workpieces that won't fit on a standard 40-taper VMC. The 1,320 x 510 mm table handles parts up to 800 kg, so you're set for fixture plates, manifolds, and structural components that need multiple features across a wide span.
The spindle delivers 18.5 kW (24.8 hp) with 95.5 Nm (70.4 ft-lb) of torque through an ISO 40 taper. That's not a heavy hogging setup, but it's plenty for production milling of aluminum, mild steel, and cast iron at reasonable depths of cut. Where this machine shines is rapid traverse — all three axes hit 36 m/min, which keeps non-cutting time short on those long moves across the table. For shops running families of parts that need holes, pockets, and profiles spread across a meter-plus of material, that speed adds up fast over a shift.
The SVM platform uses DN Solutions' proven boxway-based construction for the Y-axis combined with linear guides on X and Z. That hybrid approach gives you the rigidity where it matters most during cutting while keeping axis response sharp for profiling and contouring work. The machine weighs in at 6,500 kg (14,330 lb), which is moderate for this class and means you won't need a specialty foundation.
DN Solutions runs the Fanuc 0i-Plus control across the SVM line, paired with the 15-inch iHMI touchscreen. If your operators already know Fanuc, they'll be cutting chips on day one. The conversational EZ Guide i programming handles simple work without CAM, while full G-code is there for complex jobs. This is a straightforward production VMC that fills the gap between compact 40-tapers and full-size bridge mills.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 1,270 mm (50 in) X-axis travel handles long workpieces that won't fit on standard 40-taper VMCs without repositioning
- 36 m/min rapids on all axes keep non-cutting time low across the extended table length
- 800 kg table load capacity supports heavy fixtures and workpieces without restriction
- Hybrid boxway/linear guide construction balances rigidity during cutting with fast axis response for profiling
- Fanuc 0i-Plus control with iHMI touchscreen is the industry standard — zero learning curve for Fanuc shops
- Moderate 6,500 kg machine weight doesn't require specialty floor preparation for most industrial facilities
Limitations
- 18.5 kW spindle is adequate but not aggressive — heavy hogging in stainless or tool steel will require lighter depths of cut
- No through-spindle coolant standard on the base model limits chip evacuation in deep hole work
- ISO 40 taper limits tooling options compared to CAT/BT50 machines for heavy-duty face milling
- Extended X-axis means the machine footprint takes up more floor space than compact VMCs

Frequently Asked Questions
01
New SVM 5100 L machines typically run $95,000-$140,000 depending on options like through-spindle coolant, tool probing, and chip conveyor configuration. The SVM platform sits in the mid-range of DN Solutions' vertical machining center lineup.
02
The SVM 5100 L focuses on extended X-axis travel (1,270 mm) with a longer table, while the DNM 5700 offers a more balanced travel envelope with greater Y and Z travel. The SVM is purpose-built for long parts; the DNM is a general-purpose production VMC.
03
Yes, but the 18.5 kW spindle means you'll want to moderate your depths of cut in stainless and alloy steel. For aluminum, cast iron, and mild steel at production feeds, it's well matched. Heavy hogging in tough materials is better suited to a larger spindle platform.
04
It runs the Fanuc 0i-Plus with the 15-inch iHMI touchscreen. This includes EZ Guide i conversational programming for simple jobs and full G-code capability for complex CAM programs. Macro B is supported for custom cycles.
