DOOSAN LYNX 220LC – 2012
USED DOOSAN LYNX 220LC – 2012
The DOOSAN LYNX 220LC – 2012 is a compact 2-axis CNC turning center designed for precision turning, facing, boring, threading, grooving, drilling, and other production machining operations. The LYNX 220LC is built for shops that need a relatively small-footprint CNC lathe with a useful turning envelope, 8-inch chuck capacity, and high-speed spindle.
A documented April 2012 LYNX 220LC is equipped with a FANUC i-series CNC control, 8-inch 3-jaw chuck, 12-station turret, tool setter, parts catcher, LNS Turbo chip conveyor, coolant system, oil skimmer, and 20 HP main motor. Its maximum spindle speed is 4,000 RPM, with a maximum turning diameter of approximately 12.6 inches and maximum turning length of approximately 12 inches.
The machine has approximately 20-inch swing over the bed, 21.65-inch Z-axis travel, 6.88-inch X-axis travel, and a 2.5-inch bar capacity. The spindle uses an A2-6 nose, while the tailstock uses a #4 Morse taper.
The LYNX 220LC is particularly well suited to automotive, industrial machinery, hydraulic, oil and gas, general job-shop, and precision manufacturing applications where reliable CNC turning and relatively high production throughput are required.

INDUSTRIES THAT USE DOOSAN LYNX 220LC
The DOOSAN LYNX 220LC is suitable for a wide range of industries requiring reliable CNC turning of medium-sized components.
Typical industries include automotive, industrial machinery, hydraulics, oil and gas, agricultural equipment, construction equipment, energy, general manufacturing, precision engineering, and CNC job shops.
Its 8-inch chuck, 12.6-inch maximum turning diameter, 4,000 RPM spindle, and 20 HP motor provide a useful balance between machine capacity and production speed.
TYPICAL PARTS DOOSAN LYNX 220LC CAN PRODUCE
The LYNX 220LC can produce:
- Shafts
- Bushings
- Pins
- Spacers
- Flanges
- Hydraulic components
- Valve components
- Couplings
- Rollers
- Hubs
- Threaded components
- Automotive components
- Industrial fittings

Typical operations include turning, facing, boring, threading, grooving, drilling, chamfering, profiling, and finishing.
The tailstock makes the machine particularly useful for longer shafts and other workpieces requiring additional support during machining.
WHY CHOOSE DOOSAN LYNX 220LC
The biggest advantage of the DOOSAN LYNX 220LC is its combination of 20 HP spindle power, 4,000 RPM speed, 8-inch chuck capacity, 12-station turret, and compact machine footprint.
Its approximately 12.6-inch maximum turning diameter and 12-inch maximum turning length cover many common CNC turning applications, while the approximately 2.5-inch bar capacity provides useful flexibility for bar-fed production.
The machine’s FANUC control is another advantage for used-machine buyers because FANUC controls are widely familiar to CNC operators and maintenance personnel.
The addition of a tool setter, parts catcher, chip conveyor, coolant system, and bar feeder where equipped can turn the LYNX 220LC into an efficient production machine requiring relatively little operator intervention.
WHY BUY USED DOOSAN LYNX 220LC – 2012
Buying a used 2012 DOOSAN LYNX 220LC can provide a manufacturer with a capable CNC turning center at a significantly lower acquisition cost than a new production lathe.
The machine is particularly attractive to job shops, subcontractors, automotive suppliers, hydraulic manufacturers, and general machining companies that need dependable 2-axis turning capacity.
A well-equipped used machine can include the FANUC i-series control, 8-inch chuck, 12-station turret, automatic tool setter, parts catcher, LNS Turbo chip conveyor, coolant system, and oil skimmer.
When purchasing a used LYNX 220LC, inspect the spindle, chuck, turret indexing, X/Z-axis movement, ballscrews, guideways, tailstock alignment, tool setter, parts catcher, chip conveyor, coolant system, lubrication system, and CNC control.
Pay particular attention to spindle runout and machine geometry. A test cut should ideally be performed to verify turning diameter accuracy, surface finish, taper, threading accuracy, and repeatability.
HOW MUCH DOES A USED DOOSAN LYNX 220LC – 2012 COST?
The used price of a 2012 DOOSAN LYNX 220LC depends heavily on machine hours, spindle condition, control condition, tooling, bar feeder, chip conveyor, parts catcher, and whether the machine can be demonstrated under power.
There are several useful current market references. A 2012 LYNX 220LC listing is currently shown by KD Machinery as available for inspection under power, with pricing available by request. Another 2012 machine has recently been sold and was equipped with a FANUC i-series control, tool setter, parts catcher, LNS Turbo chip conveyor, and tailstock.
A useful current benchmark is a 2013 LYNX 220LC listed at $18,000 USD, although it is a different year and located outside the U.S.; this helps establish the lower end of the current market for older LYNX 220LC machines.
For a 2012 machine, I would use these practical estimates:
| USED DOOSAN LYNX 220LC – 2012 PRICE RANGE | ESTIMATED COST |
|---|---|
| As-Is / High Hours / Needs Work | $12,000 – $18,000 |
| Functional Used Machine | $18,000 – $24,000 |
| Good Condition / Production Ready | $24,000 – $30,000 |
| Excellent Condition / Well Equipped | $30,000 – $36,000+ |
| Low Hours / Exceptional Example | $36,000+ |
For a 2012 DOOSAN LYNX 220LC in good working condition, I would estimate approximately $20,000–$30,000 USD.
For your inventory listing, a practical estimated asking-price range would be $22,000–$30,000 USD for a clean, operational machine equipped with the FANUC control, 8-inch chuck, 12-station turret, tool setter, parts catcher, chip conveyor, coolant system, and tailstock.
A machine with very high hours, spindle problems, damaged turret tooling, control issues, or significant geometric wear could be worth considerably less. Conversely, a low-hour machine with a bar feeder, tooling package, excellent spindle condition, and documented maintenance could justify a price above $30,000.
