How much does the DN Solutions T 4000 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 T 4000 is a tapping center: a small, fast vertical machine with a 650 × 400 mm (26 × 16 in) table, a 12,000 rpm spindle and rapids of 56 m/min (2,205 ipm). It weighs 2,800 kg (6,173 lb) and takes 2,682 × 1,600 mm (106 × 63 in) of floor in length and width.
DN's table lists the travels as 350 mm (14 in), 520 mm and 400 mm in the X, Y and Z rows. A 520 mm stroke across a table 400 mm (16 in) deep would be unusual, and the 520 mm and 400 mm figures line up with the long and short sides of the 650 × 400 mm table, so confirm with DN which figure belongs to which axis before designing a fixture. The T 4000 L shows the same pattern: its table grows to 850 × 400 mm (34 × 16 in) and the 520 mm row becomes 700 mm.
The base spindle runs to 12,000 rpm, with 18,000 rpm as an option. Power is listed as the pair 5.5/3.7 kW (7.4/5.0 hp) and torque as 82.7 N·m. That is a small motor by machining-center standards and the right size for what the machine does: drilling, tapping and light milling of small parts, where the time between holes counts for more than the depth of cut. DN lists other spindles on the same travels, the T 4000 HS at 24,000 rpm and 17.5 N·m (13 ft-lb) and the T 4000 HP at 36 kW (48 hp).
DN states that the servo-driven T Series machines are equipped with 21 tools as standard and run a Fanuc control, and that the machine and table heights were lowered for user convenience. Table load is 300 kg (661 lb), and the machine stands 2,380 mm (94 in) high.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Rapid traverse of 56 m/min (2,205 ipm), listed as one figure for the machine
- 12,000 rpm spindle as standard, with 18,000 rpm available as an option
- 21 tools as standard on the servo-driven T Series, according to DN
- Compact and light: 2,682 × 1,600 mm (106 × 63 in) in length and width and 2,800 kg (6,173 lb)
- 300 kg (661 lb) table load on a 650 × 400 mm (26 × 16 in) table
Limitations
- Spindle power is listed as 5.5/3.7 kW (7.4/5.0 hp), which rules out heavy milling
- The 18,000 rpm spindle is an extra-cost option, not the base specification
- The travel rows of 350 mm (14 in), 520 mm and 400 mm need their axis assignment confirmed with DN
- A 650 × 400 mm (26 × 16 in) table limits the machine to small parts and compact fixtures

Frequently Asked Questions
01
DN's table gives 350 mm (14 in) in the X row, 520 mm in the Y row and 400 mm in the Z row, with a 650 × 400 mm (26 × 16 in) table. Because the 520 mm figure is longer than the 400 mm (16 in) depth of the table, ask DN to confirm which axis each figure belongs to before fixing a part layout.
02
The T 4000 L is the longer machine. Its table is 850 × 400 mm (34 × 16 in) against 650 × 400 mm (26 × 16 in), and the travel row that reads 520 mm on the T 4000 reads 700 mm on the T 4000 L. The T 4000 L is listed with 13 kW (17 hp) and weighs 3,000 kg (6,614 lb); the T 4000 is listed with 5.5/3.7 kW (7.4/5.0 hp) and weighs 2,800 kg (6,173 lb). Both show 82.7 N·m and a 300 kg (661 lb) table load.
03
12,000 rpm is standard and 18,000 rpm is listed as an option. For a faster spindle as the base specification DN lists the T 4000 HS at 24,000 rpm, which has 17.5 N·m (13 ft-lb) of torque and a 200 kg (441 lb) table load, so the speed comes with less torque and less load capacity.
04
DN states that the servo-driven T Series machines are equipped with 21 tools as standard and that the series runs a Fanuc control. The comparison table for this model has no row for tool-change time or maximum tool size, so ask DN for those if the job depends on them.
05
DN lists the machine at 2,682 × 1,600 mm (106 × 63 in) in length and width and 2,380 mm (94 in) in height, with a weight of 2,800 kg (6,173 lb). The narrow width is what allows several of these machines to stand in a row; keep access clear at the front for loading and at the rear for service.
