The high-reliability, servo-driven turret maintains high accuracy during long-term machining. The PUMA V8300 has a maximum spindle speed of 2000 rpm and maximum torque of 2592 Nm (1912 ft-lbs).

The tools remain safely out of the way when not in use, providing superior tool management and much easier maintenance.

It also has an ergonomically designed operation panel that swivels and is height-adjustable and movable for enhanced user convenience.

“We set out to design a new vertical turning center with the features and benefits our aerospace, automotive and energy customers were asking for,” states Jim Shiner, Director of Sales and Marketing at Doosan Machine Tools America. “These characteristics make the PUMA V8300 particularly well suited for any operation with the need to cut tough materials swiftly and efficiently.”
