2012 Doosan DNM-500 CNC Vertical Machining Center

The 2012 Doosan DNM-500 is a first-generation Doosan DNM-series vertical machining center built around 41.3 inches of X-axis travel, 21.3 inches of Y, 20.1 inches of Z, a 47.2" x 21.3" T-slotted table, a 12,000-RPM BT40 spindle driven by an 18.5 HP motor, and a 30-pocket swing-arm side-mount automatic tool changer. Configured with the Doosan-Fanuc i Series control already 4th-axis wired, an LNS chip conveyor with Weber controller, an offline tool crib station, a Kurt-style precision vise with parallels on the table, a signal/stack light tower, an automatic tool presetter, and a flood coolant ring around the spindle, the DNM-500 is set up for aluminum and light-duty steel production work straight off the truck.

Compared to the older Doosan/Daewoo Mynx 540 platform that the DNM-500 replaced, this 2012 build delivers the modern Fanuc i Series control over the older Fanuc 18i/21i found on prior generations, plus a stiffer column casting and the integrated LNS chip-management package — meaningful upgrades over the bare-bones DNM-400 / Mynx-540 layouts. With market comps for similar-vintage DNM-500 machines spanning the $19,400–$43,700 asking range and a 2008-era Equipment Marketplace ask of $24,500, this configured 2012 unit — with LNS conveyor, presetter, vise package, and 4th-axis prep — is positioned to undercut the higher-end of the comp range while delivering more capability than the entry-level units.
