Fun inspiration
What you see with all of these, vs yours, is the proportions. You keep trying to build a spindly machine with big travels. Yes, you have a weight restriction, and size to a degree, and want as much travel as you can, but you can definitely give yours beefier proportions. Start with the potato chip base. make it 3x thicker then hollow it out strategically. DMG uses a lot of lattice box elements. Complex molds to make, but you make up for it with lighter and stiffer castings.
Also notice they seem to have dropped mineral castings from every model. every base seem to be an iron casting, Probably ADI for the moving parts.
Seems the "new" things is to concentrate on thermal stability. Linear rails and ball screws are all water cooled, even on the cheapest cmx models. (not that any dmg is cheap).
