DN Solutions, the world's third-largest and South Korea's largest machine tool manufacturer, is committed to driving innovation and transformation in metalworking technology. Its DNX series of multi-tasking machine tools is the latest embodiment of this commitment.

This series not only inherits the profound technical foundation of DN machine tools, but also takes "popularizing multi-tasking machine tools" as its mission, perfectly combining high-end configuration with reasonable price, helping enterprises of different sizes to find new opportunities in the advanced manufacturing ecosystem.

01 Brand Evolution and Market Positioning

DN Solutions (Chinese name: DN Machine Tools) has a glorious history. Its predecessor can be traced back to 1937, but the real development of the machine tool business began with the establishment of "Doosan Machinery" in 1976.

For decades, the "Doosan Machine Tools" brand has accumulated a large user base in the global market, and enjoys a high reputation, especially in the Chinese market.

In 2022, in order to optimize its business structure, Doosan Group spun off its machine tool business and established a new company, DN Solutions.

"DN" signifies the inheritance of "Doosan" and the innovation of "New", marking the beginning of a new chapter for the brand based on inheriting Doosan's strong technical foundation.

Also in 2022, Samsung Electronics acquired a majority stake in DN Solutions, becoming its largest shareholder.

This strategic partnership provides DN Solutions with strong support from South Korea's largest conglomerate, injecting powerful momentum into its efforts in smart manufacturing, digital transformation, and future technology research and development.

02 Design Philosophy and Core Features of the DNX Series

The name DNX series carries profound meaning. Sharing the "DN" logo with the company's best-selling products DNM and DNT, it expresses the company's determination to continue developing higher-level products.

The final "X" symbolizes that this series of equipment is a high-end multi-axis device, reflecting its breakthrough in technological complexity.

The DNX series features a completely different appearance from previous DINE machine tools. The machine's outline and spindle cover adopt a soft curve design, combined with a dark metallic gray (silver) base color, showcasing the product's futuristic value.

The highlight color is Dean Group's signature color, "Dean Blue," used to decorate the edges of the logo, product names, front doors, and control panels.

The new ambient lighting at the bottom of the front doors also features "Dean Blue," a color inspired by the hue of Earth as seen from space, symbolizing that our products are the culmination of cutting-edge technology propelling humanity into space.

This innovative design is not only refreshing, but also earned the DNX 2100 the 2025 Red Dot Design Award for Product Design.

Powerful composite processing capabilities

The biggest highlight of the DNX series lies in its powerful multi-axis machining capabilities. Through the combined machining capabilities of the 1st and 2nd spindles, the 0.0001° B-axis, the milling spindle, and the servo tailstock, it excels in machining complex-shaped parts.

This multi-tasking machine tool can handle complex turning and milling operations in a single setup within a single machine.

It eliminates the need to transfer workpieces as required with traditional turning centers and milling machines, making the machining process simpler and more stable.

03 Practical Applications and Commercial Value

A DN machine tool customer in the Netherlands increased its annual production by 12 times after using multi-tasking machine tools compared to when it only had turning centers and milling machines.

This astonishing data fully demonstrates the enormous potential of multitasking technology in improving production efficiency.

By reducing machine downtime (such as inter-process transfers and setup), the DNX series facilitates the introduction of automated machining solutions, significantly improving productivity.

For small metalworking businesses, the DNX series offers the specifications of high-end multitasking machine tools at a reasonable price, enabling them to find new opportunities in the advanced manufacturing ecosystem.

The DNX series not only reflects DN machine tool's technological strength but also represents a precise grasp of the future of manufacturing. As Kim Won-jong, Representative Director of DN Machine Tools, stated, "We expect DNX to win the favor of high-end product customers."

As the manufacturing industry continues to develop towards intelligence and efficiency, multi-tasking processing equipment like the DNX series is gradually becoming the standard configuration of modern factories, providing enterprises with more comprehensive solutions to cope with complex production tasks.
