Puma MX mill/turn machines from Doosan can now be equipped with Coromant Capto machine-adapted clamping units designed for the lower turret for faster and safer tool changes with greater tooling rigidity, according to the company.

Doosan's Lynx 220LSY Series is a range of affordable, compact and high-speed Multi-Tasking Turning Centers featuring a Y-axis, an important feature, as milling and drilling capabilities of the Y-axis do away with the need for secondary machining operations that might otherwise be performed on, say, a milling machine.
