1995 DAEWOO PUMA 10HC CNC LATHES

Technical Description

The Daewoo Puma 10HC is a two-axis CNC slant-bed turning center from Daewoo Heavy Industries' Puma 10 series, built in the mid-1990s (this unit dated 1995). It runs on a Fanuc 0-T (OT-C) control with AC servo drives. The machine is equipped with a 10-inch three-jaw hydraulic chuck and a 25 HP AC spindle motor producing speeds up to 3,500 rpm. Maximum turning diameter is 14.6 in, with a spindle bore of approximately 2.9 in. Tooling is handled by a 10-station automatic turret with roughly 1-second index time. A hydraulically actuated tailstock supports long shaft work, and the machine accepts bar stock through a barfeed interface. Standard equipment on surviving units includes a coolant system, chip/swarf conveyor, and RS-232 ports; some units add a tool-setting probe and parts catcher. Electrical service is typically 220V, 3-phase. The Puma 10HC sits at the compact end of Daewoo's slant-bed Puma lathe family, built for small-to-midsize shaft and chuck work. Daewoo Heavy Industries' machine tool business was later reorganized as Doosan Infracore (now DN Solutions) in the mid-2000s, and Puma-series nomenclature continued under Doosan/DN Solutions, though the HC-suffix generation itself was discontinued. No factory brochure for this specific model was located online; the specifications on this row are corroborated across multiple independent dealer listings for used units.
