Used DMG Mori NTX 1000: Sell or Buy at Auction
DMG Mori is the world's largest machine tool manufacturer by revenue: formed from the merger of Germany's Deckel Maho Gildemeister and Japan's Mori Seiki. DMG Mori machines represent the premium tier of global machine tool manufacturing, used in aerospace, automotive, medical, and high-precision manufacturing worldwide.
The DMG Mori NTX 1000 is a compact turn-mill multitasking center in DMG Mori's NTX series, built to combine full turning with a swiveling B-axis milling spindle for simultaneous 5-axis machining in a single setup. It handles bar stock up to about 65 mm and turned parts up to roughly 430 mm in diameter and 800 mm long, with a milling spindle that runs to 12,000 rpm (20,000 rpm optional) fed by an automatic tool changer rather than a simple live-tooling turret. Most NTX 1000s run a CELOS interface on a Fanuc control, with a Siemens option, and are configured with an opposed counter spindle (sub-spindle) and, on many units, a lower turret, so a shop can turn, mill, and drill a finished part in one setup without a second operation or a second machine. That done-in-one capability is why the primary buyers are aerospace and medical component manufacturers and precision job shops producing shafts, housings, fittings, and implants that need turning and milling held to tight tolerances across processes that would otherwise take multiple setups. At auction, KD Auctions markets the NTX 1000 to a pool of 500,000+ industry contacts, and compact turn-mill platforms like this one routinely draw strong competitive bidding from shops looking to add multitasking capacity without the lead time of a new machine.

What is a DMG Mori NTX 1000 worth at auction?
Auction value for an NTX 1000 depends on its age, hours, condition, control type, and configuration, including the milling spindle speed (12,000 or 20,000 rpm), whether it has a counter spindle and a lower turret, and the tooling and bar feed equipment included. KD Auctions offers a free AMEA-accredited, USPAP-compliant appraisal covering both orderly liquidation value (OLV) and forced liquidation value (FLV), so you know where the machine stands before deciding how to sell.
How does the NTX 1000 compare to the larger NTX 2000 and NTX 3000, and how do I sell one?
The NTX 1000 is the compact model in DMG Mori's NTX turn-mill lineup, sized for smaller to mid-size parts (bar capacity around 65 mm, turning up to roughly 430 mm diameter and 800 mm long), while the NTX 2000 and NTX 3000 take larger diameters and longer workpieces. Expect the strongest interest from precision job shops, aerospace suppliers, and medical and contract manufacturers rather than heavy fabricators. To sell one, call KD Auctions at 480.455.3910. Commission is tailored to the engagement and quoted upfront, and most sellers pay nothing out of pocket. A managed auction typically runs 6 to 10 weeks from engagement to payout, with onsite dispatch scheduled within 48 to 72 hours.
