Hi all, there are a world of opinions about the usual options like the Speedio for small machines / aluminium work but I can’t find much real world info about the DNM4000 from doosan.
We need a new machine to run with a 4th axis tombstone, two aluminium parts each side (8 total, approx 120mm square, 20mm tall) with some 12mm roughing / outside profile (15mm deep) some 12mm 6x dia drilling and approx 15 m4 tapped holes a side with a few other features - machine will only ever run aluminium or this specific job.
Parts should run for 1.5-2hrs unattended, we are not chasing every micro second but want something that won’t hang about - all programmed by CAM and small batch production, jobs not being changed daily.
The Speedo is likely out right now (so please no ‘get a Speedio comments ;-) ), the machines in the ballpark are the 10k Robodrill, the Hurco VMX30Di -
(Direct 15k spindle) and the Doosan DNM4000 which is the machine I would like a little more info about (may look at Haas DM but less keen so far)
The Doosan comes with TSC as standard and a 12k DD spindle, BT40 - we have good local support for all 3, doosan probably the best.
Thanks.
