DMM Series Heavy-Duty Automatic Traveling Plate Edge Milling Machine
DMM series heavy-duty automatic traveling plate beveling machines for 5-100mm plates. Industrial-grade 300-450kg machines for high-volume shipbuilding and pressure vessel fabrication.
Watch the DMM Traveling Milling Series perform automatic edge beveling on heavy plates
Overview
The DMM Traveling Milling Series delivers industrial-grade plate beveling for production environments where throughput and reliability matter. At 300-450kg, these machines are built for continuous operation on plates from 5mm to 100mm thick—the workhorses of shipyards, pressure vessel shops, and heavy fabrication facilities.
Key Advantages
- Production-grade construction — 300-450kg frames built for multi-shift operation
- 100mm maximum capacity — DMM-900 handles the thickest structural plates
- Full 0°-90° angle range — Standard V-preps to near-vertical J-grooves
- Cold milling — No heat-affected zone, preserves material properties
- VFD spindle control — Optimize chip load for any material
Model Comparison
| Model | Thickness | Angle | Power | Weight | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| DMM-2070 | 5-80mm | 0-90° | 6.4kW | 300kg | Standard production |
| DMM-2070L | 5-80mm | 0-90° | 6.0kW | 320kg | With lifting provisions |
| DMM-900 | 5-100mm | 0-90° | 6.4kW | 450kg | Maximum thickness capacity |
| DMM-100L | 5-80mm | 0-90° | 6.0kW | 345kg | Heavy-duty with lifting |
Why Choose DMM Series?
Choose DMM when you need:
- Plates over 80mm thick (DMM-900)
- Continuous high-volume production
- Maximum machine stability and cut consistency
- Industrial-grade durability for demanding environments
Consider GL Series instead for:
- Workshop applications under 250kg weight limit
- Single-operator positioning requirements
- Moderate production volumes
- Budget-conscious projects
Customization Options
Every DMM machine can be configured to your requirements:
- Bevel Angle — Custom cutter angles manufactured to your welding specifications
- Capacity Range — Thickness range adjustable for specific material requirements
- Drive System — Electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic based on facility needs
Contact our engineering team to discuss your customization requirements.
Operating Notes
- Feed Speed Selection — Start conservative (150-250 mm/min), increase as cut stabilizes
- Material Considerations — Reduce speed 20-30% for stainless steel and hardened alloys
- Cutter Maintenance — Inspect blade edges before each shift; replace at first sign of wear
- Lifting Provisions — DMM-2070L and DMM-100L include integrated lifting points for crane positioning

Key Features
Heavy-Duty Construction
300-450kg welded steel frames absorb vibration and maintain accuracy through continuous production shifts.
Motorized Self-Travel
Dedicated feed motor drives at up to 1.5m/min along plate edges—operators set and monitor, not push.
100mm Plate Capacity
DMM-900 clamps plates up to 100mm thick—handles the heaviest structural and pressure vessel work.
Full 0°-90° Bevel Range
Complete angle adjustment from flat-land edges to near-vertical J-groove configurations.
VFD Speed Control
Frequency-controlled spindle (750-1440r/min) optimizes chip load for carbon steel, stainless, and duplex.
Zero Heat-Affected Zone
Cold milling preserves base metal properties—no discoloration, no hardness changes, no cracking risk.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between DMM-2070, DMM-900, and DMM-100L?
DMM-2070/2070L handle 5-80mm plates at 300-320kg. DMM-900 is the flagship at 450kg for plates up to 100mm. DMM-100L offers 80mm capacity in a 345kg frame with lifting provisions.
What plate thicknesses can DMM series handle?
DMM models cover 5-100mm depending on model. DMM-2070 series and DMM-100L handle 5-80mm, while DMM-900 extends to 100mm.
How does the automatic travel system work?
A separate feed motor propels the machine along the plate edge at adjustable speeds up to 1.5m/min. The operator sets parameters and monitors progress.
What are the power requirements?
All DMM models use AC 380V 50Hz three-phase power. Total power is 6.0-6.4kW depending on model.
Can custom bevel angles be supplied?
Yes, custom cutter angles can be manufactured to match your specific welding specifications. Contact us with your groove requirements.
What is the difference between DMM and GL series?
GL series (220-250kg) is lighter and more workshop-friendly. DMM series (300-450kg) offers higher capacity and is built for continuous production environments.
