What the Doosan PUMA 400LC is

The Doosan PUMA 400LC is a CNC turning center — a machine for turning round parts between a chuck and, where fitted, a tailstock — shafts, flanges, housings and bar work. The manufacturer publishes a max turning diameter of 550 (21.7). This one is specified with bar work: a bar feeder can run stock through the spindle.

What it is built to do

From the figures the manufacturer publishes, a Doosan PUMA 400LC suits:

  • bar work up to 165.5 (6.5) fed through the spindle

Listings spell this machine several ways. We use PUMA 400LC because the OEM sheet is puma-400-english.pdf; "400LC" alone is not the product name.

What fits a Doosan PUMA 400LC

Each of these follows from a published specification above, which is named beside it.

Workholding

The manufacturer gives this machine's workholding as 530 (20.9). Every chuck on it travels with the machine, along with any spare or soft jaws, and each is counted in an offer.

Derived from — Chuck size: 530 (20.9)

Bar feeder fit

Bar capacity is the manufacturer's figure opposite; a bar feeder has to be sized to it. A feeder included with the machine changes what a buyer will pay.

Derived from — Bar capacity: 165.5 (6.5)

What years the Doosan PUMA 400LC was built

Across the units we have tracked, build years run from 2002 to 2014. Observed across 25 marketplaces, not a manufacturer build record. The manufacturer specifies Fanuc 32i-A or Doosan Fanuc i series, so a unit on an older control is an early one or a retrofit.

2002 to 2014model years listed

We track listings across 25 used-machinery marketplaces, and every competitor in this market is one of them, so this is a view none of them can produce for themselves. Right now there are 3 units of this exact designation on the market, drawn from 2 independent sources, spanning model years 2002 to 2014. That is a thin market for this designation, which usually works in a seller’s favor.

We count only listings whose model is spelled as this machine’s own designation. Near spellings that may be a different variant are excluded rather than counted, so this is a floor on what is out there, not a total.

What to check on a Doosan PUMA 400LC

The same list whichever side of the deal you are on.

  • Control generation. The manufacturer specifies Fanuc 32i-A or Doosan Fanuc i series for this model. The control is often the single biggest swing on two otherwise identical machines, because it decides which buyers can use it at all.
  • Spindle hours and condition. Most controls show run hours on a maintenance or diagnostics screen. It is the first number anyone asks for, so find it before the conversation rather than during it.
  • Tooling and accessories. Holders, chucks, steady rests, probing and automation attachments travel with the machine, and they are worth real money separately from it.
  • Turret condition and index time. A turret that has been crashed is the expensive repair on a lathe, and index time is the first thing a buyer times.
  • Live tooling and the sub-spindle, if fitted. Whether the rotary tools still drive, and whether the second spindle synchronizes, separates two very different machines that share a model number.
  • The tailstock and steady rests. They travel with the machine and they are counted.
  • Power and rigging access. How the machine comes out of the building is a real cost, and it is one MTE absorbs, so an accessible machine is worth more to us.
