Overview
The Doosan DNM 5700 is a large-capacity vertical machining center from South Korea's Doosan Machine Tools, offering 1,100 x 570 mm (43.3 x 22.4 in) X/Y travel in a rigid, thermally compensated cast iron structure. It occupies the upper range of Doosan's DNM series — above the DNM 4500 (800 x 450 mm) and DNM 6700 (1,300 x 670 mm) — and targets shops machining large aluminum and steel components in aerospace, automotive tooling, mold and die, and industrial equipment.
The main spindle runs at up to 12,000 RPM (standard) or 15,000 RPM (optional) with a BT40 / CAT40 taper and 18.5 kW (24.8 hp) spindle motor. Linear roller guide technology on all three axes enables 36,000 mm/min (1,417 ipm) rapids, significantly faster than box-way VMCs at similar price points. The 30-station arm-type ATC provides 1.5-second tool-to-tool time for efficient production cycling.
Doosan equips the DNM 5700 with the Fanuc 0i-MF Plus (or Siemens 828D, customer choice) control with Doosan's Smart Machine application package, which includes in-process thermal compensation, vibration monitoring, and power monitoring for tool condition insight. The table measures 1,300 x 570 mm (51.2 x 22.4 in) with a 1,200 kg (2,646 lb) maximum load. Z-axis travel is 510 mm (20.1 in).
The DNM 5700 competes with the Haas VF-5/VF-6, the Mazak VCN-530C, and the DN Solutions NHP 5000 at this capacity level. Doosan's competitive advantage is the combination of large travel, fast rapids, and production-oriented features (smart machine monitoring, servo-based chip conveyor) at a price point typically 10–20% below Japanese competitors of equivalent size. Pricing runs approximately $120,000–$170,000.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 1,100 mm X-axis and 570 mm Y-axis travel covers large mold bases, aerospace fixtures, and structural panels in a single setup
- 36,000 mm/min rapids on all axes significantly reduce air-cutting time in long-travel programs with frequent tool changes
- 30-station ATC with 1.5-second tool-to-tool time enables efficient cycling of complex programs requiring frequent tool changes across a large work envelope
- Smart Machine monitoring package provides thermal compensation, vibration alerts, and power monitoring to detect tool wear and maintain dimensional consistency in production
- Competitive pricing typically $10K–$30K below equivalent Mazak and Haas models at similar travel and spindle specifications
Limitations
- 12,000 RPM standard spindle is adequate but not optimal for high-speed aluminum machining — 15,000 RPM option recommended for aluminum-dominant shops
- Doosan's North American dealer and service network, while growing, is still less extensive than Haas or Mazak — parts availability and response time in some regions can vary
- BT40/CAT40 taper on an 18.5 kW machine is a common mismatch for heavy facing operations — shops regularly running 125 mm+ face mills may prefer a BT50 platform

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The Haas VF-5 offers slightly more X-travel (1,270 mm vs 1,100 mm) and Y-travel (660 mm vs 570 mm) with a similar 12,000 RPM 22.4 kW spindle, 40-tool ATC, and 35 m/min rapids. Haas prices the VF-5 around $120,000–$135,000 with a very strong US service and parts network. The Doosan DNM 5700 at $120,000–$170,000 matches Haas on rapids but offers the Smart Machine monitoring package as a standard feature. For US-based shops, the Haas VF-5 is hard to beat on value and support. For shops where smart monitoring and Doosan's Korean engineering appeal, the DNM 5700 is competitive.
02
The Smart Machine package is Doosan's suite of machine monitoring and intelligence features bundled with the DNM 5700. It includes: thermal displacement compensation (monitors spindle temperature and adjusts Z-axis offset to compensate for thermal growth), spindle vibration monitoring (alerts for tool imbalance or bearing issues), power monitoring (tracks spindle motor load as a proxy for tool condition), and machine health dashboards. The package reduces thermal error in production environments and provides early warning of tool or mechanical issues before dimensional problems develop.
03
Yes. Through-spindle coolant (TSC) is available as an option at pressures of 30 bar or 70 bar. TSC is strongly recommended for deep hole drilling, solid carbide end milling in stainless and titanium, and high-speed machining of aluminum where chip evacuation from the tool flutes is critical. The 70 bar option is appropriate for deep drilling with small-diameter carbide drills. Specify TSC pressure requirement at order time — it cannot easily be retrofitted.
04
The DNM 5700 has 510 mm (20.1 in) of Z-axis travel with a 580 mm (22.8 in) distance from spindle nose to table at maximum Z-up position. Maximum workpiece plus tooling height is approximately 500 mm (19.7 in) for most standard tool lengths. Taller workpieces require shorter tooling or reduced tool stick-out, which should be evaluated in CAM simulation before ordering. Confirm spindle nose to table distance with the Doosan dealer for specific setup requirements.
05
Yes. The Fanuc 0i-MF Plus control supports a 4th rotary axis (A or B) with standard axis wiring provisions in the machine. Doosan offers factory-configured 4th axis drive wiring at time of order. Common 4th axis setups include 5-inch and 8-inch rotary tables from major manufacturers (Tsudakoma, Nikken, Kitagawa). The table and T-slot pattern supports standard 4th axis mounting. Specify 4th axis intent at order time for factory-wired cable management.
