DAEWOO PUMA 200M CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This is a mid-sized 3-axis CNC lathe designed for precision turning and milling operations. With a 20.1-inch swing over bed and 21.6-inch machining length, it accommodates moderately sized workpieces for general manufacturing applications. The 8-inch chuck provides secure workpiece holding for standard production work, while the 2.6-inch bar capacity supports automatic bar feeding for high-volume runs. Powered by a 5 HP spindle motor reaching 6,000 RPM maximum, this machine delivers adequate torque and speed for various turning operations across different material types. The three-axis configuration—combining X (cross-slide), Z (longitudinal), and C (rotational) axes—enables both traditional turning and live tooling capabilities, allowing for milling, boring, and tapping operations without part removal. This multi-axis capability significantly expands production flexibility by enabling complex part geometry in a single setup. The integrated tailstock supports longer workpieces and enhances machining stability during extended operations. Live tooling functionality allows powered tool execution perpendicular to the spindle axis, eliminating secondary operations and reducing setup time. The absence of a sub-spindle limits simultaneous front and back machining but maintains cost-effectiveness for standard applications. This lathe achieves CNC precision levels typically within ±0.0005 inches, ensuring high repeatability essential for aerospace, medical, and automotive component manufacturing. The combination of robust spindle power, adequate work envelope, and live tooling capabilities makes this machine suitable for contract shops and job shops requiring versatile, precision CNC turning and milling in a single operation.
