Yeah we are based in southeast michigan right across the street from metro airport. This list is only the DMG-MORI machines I have. We also bought a Kuraki KBT-13EA from DMG-Mori direct because they own them now I guess. We also have 2 niigata 1250 horizontals, 2 toshiba horiz with tosnuc controls, a doosan horizontal and a bunch of haas lathes and vert cncs. I can start my day programming a part you can lay down inside the bores we put in it and end it programming a small titanium piece on our small mill/turn with tools that never get bigger than .03" with +/-.0003" tolerance. And we are still looking at more machines because we are now certified for medical work.

We do everything directly through dmg where most of the stuff we need is handled through our sales guy and there is almost always some dmg crew here working/installing stuff here daily. Not because the machines suck but we suck running them I feel kinda sorry for our sales guy but at the end the day we are probably responsible for keeping the lights on over there in chicago lol.

I am humbled by this.

Are you in the States? If not that would explain why you get good service from DMG, lol. Cause it sounds like the kind of shop that makes either racing cars, or rocket ships. That's one hell of a spindle stable, my guy.

I'm your huckleberry. We have 4 DMG NHX6300 horizontals, 2 of which are connected to the DMG lps3 24 pallet pool.
we gots 1 cmx1100v vertical cnc. We installed a clx 450 mill/turn that we are currently using in 2025. We also bought a dmu50 5 axis with a 12 pallet changer (i think its 12 not sure) that is being setup right now. And to top it off we have an NTX 500 mill/turn that is currently being built and should be delivered around april/may with every possible option you can get on them.
The horizontals and the vertical are using my own edited posts. For the clx 450 i am using a mill/turn environment and the dmu 5 axis we have a quote in now for a post. We havent even discussed the ntx 500 yet. What I can tell you is I have gotten amazing support from DMG-MORI and the complete opposite from mastercam.

I don't know anyone who has a modern DMG.
Do people actually buy them here is the US?
I've watched You Tube videos of amazing machines, but they look like complex maintenance hogs
to me.
We've got an old Mori NT6000 here that was built in 2007.
We bought it in 2018 with less than 200 hours on it.
It's been a solid machine, but it's got so many safety interlocks
that it's barely functional.
We program it with a Postabilty post and get good code, but it's not easy.

They quickly came-along in leaps and bounds.

Yes... the small Toyoda bridgemill we have is an excellent machine.
Toyoda is a Japanese brand but this machine is built in Taiwan under license.
We have had trouble with it, but it was self induced and I don't blame the builder.
