DOOSAN PUMA GT2600
USED DOOSAN PUMA GT2600
The DOOSAN PUMA GT2600 is a heavy-duty CNC turning center designed for production turning applications requiring a large work envelope, substantial bar capacity, and reliable high-speed machining. The GT2600 is commonly configured with a 10″ or 12″ chuck, FANUC CNC control, a 12-station turret, tailstock, and chip conveyor. Depending on the specific configuration, live tooling and C-axis capabilities may also be available.
The GT2600 provides approximately 24.8″ of swing over the bed, 18.1″ maximum turning diameter, and around 24″ of machining length in commonly listed configurations. A 2018 example is documented with a 3.2″ bar capacity, 10″ Samchully chuck, 26.8″ Z-axis travel, and 10.4″ X-axis travel. Other configurations use a 12″ chuck and offer similar production-oriented capacity.
The main spindle reaches 3,500 RPM, with a 30 HP motor on the commonly listed GT2600 configuration. The spindle uses an A2-8 nose, while the 12-station turret provides the tooling capacity needed for production turning. FANUC Oi-TF control, tool presetting, tailstock, and chip conveyor are common equipment on used GT2600 machines.
The DOOSAN PUMA GT2600 is well suited for automotive, hydraulic, industrial equipment, oil and gas, energy, and general precision machining applications. Its combination of large turning diameter, long machining length, high spindle speed, and rigid construction makes it a practical choice for shops machining medium- to large-sized turned components.

INDUSTRIES THAT USE DOOSAN PUMA GT2600
The DOOSAN PUMA GT2600 is designed for production turning where rigidity, turning capacity, and dependable cycle times are important. Its relatively large turning envelope and 3.2″ bar capacity make it suitable for a wide range of industrial components.
Common industries include:
- Automotive
- Aerospace
- Oil and gas
- Hydraulic equipment
- Industrial machinery
- Energy
- Heavy equipment
- Defense
- General manufacturing
- Precision contract machining
The machine is particularly useful for shops producing repetitive batches of shafts, bushings, fittings, flanges, sleeves, and other cylindrical components.
TYPICAL PARTS THE DOOSAN PUMA GT2600 CAN PRODUCE
The GT2600’s large turning envelope and high-capacity spindle make it suitable for both general production work and larger turned components.
Typical parts include:
- Shafts
- Bushings
- Flanges
- Hydraulic components
- Valve components
- Fittings
- Sleeves
- Couplings
- Pins
- Rollers
- Hubs
- Industrial machinery components
- Automotive components
- Oil and gas components
The GT2600M configuration can extend these capabilities with C-axis and live-tool machining, allowing milling and drilling features to be produced directly on turned components.
WHY CHOOSE DOOSAN PUMA GT2600?
The DOOSAN PUMA GT2600 is attractive to manufacturers that need a robust CNC lathe with a larger-than-average work envelope. Its 18.1″ turning diameter, approximately 24″ machining length, 3,500 RPM spindle, 30 HP motor, 12-station turret, and box-way construction provide a strong combination for production turning.
Another advantage is the availability of different configurations. Buyers can find standard 2-axis GT2600 machines as well as GT2600M versions equipped with C-axis and live tooling. This allows a shop to select a machine based on whether its production requires conventional turning or additional milling and drilling operations.
WHY BUY USED DOOSAN PUMA GT2600?
Buying a used DOOSAN PUMA GT2600 can provide substantial turning capacity without the cost of purchasing a new production CNC lathe. These machines are commonly found in the used market with FANUC controls, tailstocks, tool presetters, chip conveyors, and production-oriented tooling packages.
Many used machines include valuable options such as:
- FANUC Oi-TF CNC control
- 10″ or 12″ hydraulic chuck
- 12-station turret
- Programmable tailstock
- Tool presetter
- Chip conveyor
- C-axis
- Live tooling on GT2600M models
- Parts catcher
- Bar feeder
- High-pressure coolant
- Mist collector
- Additional tooling and holders
Before purchasing a used GT2600, buyers should inspect spindle condition, chuck operation, turret indexing, tailstock alignment, axis backlash, ballscrews, hydraulic system, coolant system, chip conveyor, CNC control, and machine history. For GT2600M machines, C-axis accuracy and live-tool operation should also be tested.
HOW MUCH DOES A USED DOOSAN PUMA GT2600 COST?
Used DOOSAN PUMA GT2600 pricing varies considerably depending on year, spindle hours, condition, chuck size, control, tooling, options, and included accessories. Current used listings are frequently offered on a Request a Quote basis.
For reference, a previously advertised 2017 DOOSAN PUMA GT2600 was listed at $49,900, while a 2018 GT2600 listing is currently shown as contact seller/request pricing. These figures should be treated as individual asking-price references rather than a fixed market value for every GT2600.
When evaluating a used GT2600, buyers should compare year, spindle hours, cutting hours, chuck size, bar capacity, FANUC control, tailstock, tooling, chip conveyor, tool presetter, live tooling/C-axis configuration, bar feeder, and overall maintenance history rather than relying on the model name alone.
