2012 Doosan Puma-300LC CNC Turning Center

The Doosan Puma 300LC is a heavy-duty 2-axis CNC turning center with a reputation for rigidity and dependable long-part capacity that has made the Puma line a staple in production and job-shop environments. This 2012 example is configured as a big-bore, long-bed machine: a 15" Kitagawa big-bore chuck rides on an A2-11 spindle nose with 4" bar capacity, and the long bed delivers a full 52" between centers for extended shaft and bar work. Built as a single-turret slant-bed lathe with a tailstock for long-part support, the Puma 300LC handles large-diameter chucking and long turning on one rigid platform, making it well suited to oil-field, energy, and heavy-component turning.

Compared with the earlier Daewoo-era Puma 300 and the standard short-bed Puma 300, the Doosan Puma 300LC is the more capable long-bed, big-bore evolution of the series. The LC configuration lengthens the bed for substantially greater distance between centers than the standard Puma 300, so operators can turn longer shafts without changing machines, while the big-bore A2-11 spindle and 4" bar capacity open up larger through-spindle stock than the standard-bore Puma 300 allows. Doosan-era build refinements over the original Daewoo Puma 300 bring improved fit, finish, and control integration, so a buyer stepping up to this Puma 300LC gains real long-part and big-bore production range - not just a newer badge.
