2017 DOOSAN DNM500 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 2017 Doosan DNM500 is a 3-axis vertical machining center representing one of Doosan's most widely deployed mid-size VMC platforms, recognized for its robust construction, generous work envelope, and proven reliability in production environments. The machine is built on a thermally balanced cast iron structure with wide-span linear guideways on all axes for high rigidity during both roughing and finishing operations. The DNM500 provides an X-axis travel of 1,020 mm (40.2 in), Y-axis travel of 540 mm (21.3 in), and Z-axis travel of 510 mm (20.1 in), served by a 1,200 x 540 mm worktable capable of accommodating larger prismatic workpieces and tombstone fixturing. The spindle is rated at 15 kW (continuous) with a maximum speed of 12,000 RPM, delivering a broad torque curve suitable for milling, drilling, boring, and tapping of steel, cast iron, and aluminum. The DNM500 is governed by the Fanuc 0i-MD CNC control, providing an established and broadly supported operator interface with full G-code compatibility and comprehensive machining cycle support. A 30+1 arm-type automatic tool changer with BT40 (CAT40) spindle taper is standard. Chip and coolant management systems support sustained production operation. The machine occupies a floor footprint of approximately 3,750 x 2,284 mm (147.6 x 89.9 in), stands approximately 2,703 mm (106.4 in) tall, and has a machine weight of approximately 6,500 kg (14,330 lb). The DNM500 is well-suited for contract machining, automotive, and general industrial component production where a reliable mid-size VMC with a proven track record is required.
