USED OKUMA GENOS L400II

The Okuma Genos L400II is a compact yet powerful CNC horizontal turning center designed for medium-sized components that require higher capacity than entry-level machines while maintaining affordability. Built on a one-piece cast iron base with a horizontal box way system, the machine offers excellent rigidity, stability, and vibration resistance, enabling consistent precision across a wide range of machining applications.

The L400II typically supports a maximum turning diameter of approximately 310–330 mm and a turning length of up to 500 mm, with extended bed options available for longer parts. The spindle speed reaches up to 3,000 rpm, supported by a robust motor that balances torque and efficiency for both roughing and finishing operations. A standard 12-station turret allows for efficient tool changes, and the machine can be configured with automation systems such as bar feeders and robotic loaders.

The machine is also designed with user convenience in mind, featuring an ergonomic layout, efficient chip evacuation, and a separated coolant tank for easier maintenance. Overall, the Genos L400II is positioned as an “affordable excellence” solution, ideal for manufacturers seeking reliable, high-capacity turning performance in a cost-effective and compact package.

WHY BUY USED OKUMA GENOS L400II

Buying a used Okuma Genos L400II is a practical choice for manufacturers that require larger turning capacity without the higher investment of a new CNC lathe. These machines are known for their rigid construction and long-term durability, allowing them to maintain machining accuracy even after years of continuous operation. This makes them a strong contender in the used equipment market.

A key factor when evaluating a used L400II is cutting time (spindle hours). Machines with low cutting hours—typically under 5,000–7,000 hours—are considered lightly used and can deliver near-new performance. Units with moderate usage (7,000–18,000 hours) are still highly reliable for most production environments if properly maintained. Machines with higher cutting hours may require refurbishment of components such as the turret or spindle but can still provide value for less demanding applications.

Another benefit is that even used L400II machines retain modern CNC controls and automation compatibility, allowing integration into current production systems. The machine’s larger work envelope compared to smaller GENOS models also makes it more versatile for handling heavier or longer parts.

For shops expanding capacity or upgrading from smaller lathes, a used Genos L400II offers a strong combination of performance, reliability, and cost efficiency.

HOW MUCH DOES A USED OKUMA GENOS L400II COST?

The cost of a used Okuma Genos L400II depends on factors such as manufacturing year, configuration, condition, and most importantly, cutting time. Since the L400II is part of the newer GENOS LII series, pricing is typically segmented by age and usage rather than very old pre-2000 machines.

For early-generation machines (around 2014–2017), prices generally range from $35,000 to $60,000. These units often have higher cutting hours (10,000–20,000+) and may require maintenance or component replacement depending on usage history.

Machines manufactured between 2017 and 2021 typically fall in the $60,000 to $95,000 range. These represent the most common used inventory and usually include moderate cutting hours (5,000–15,000), along with improved controls and optional automation features.

For newer machines from 2021 to 2025, prices can range from $95,000 to $150,000 or more depending on configuration, tooling packages, and automation integration. These machines generally have low cutting hours (under 5,000) and are close to new condition.

Cutting time significantly impacts pricing—machines with lower spindle hours command higher values regardless of age. Buyers should also evaluate maintenance records, tooling, and included automation to determine the true cost and long-term value of the investment.
