The live tools on a Lynx 2600SY are BMT-55 and 7HP. The Puma equivalent is the Puma 2600SY with BMT-65 and 10HP. These are two completely different machines, but each serve their intended purpose very well. Thanks for reaching out!

Lynx is Linear Ways and BMT 55 / GT 2600 has box ways but has no Y-axis / Puma 2600 is box way with BMT 65 and Y axis. Different price points for different needs. The difference in price is pretty substantial too. If you needed bigger bar capacity but don't need a Y-axis, but still want a box way for a cheaper price then the GT2600 is better. Or if you're running alum all day but want bigger diameter but don't need a boxway, then the Lynx 2600 is better, don't need to overpay for a boxway and bigger turret.

@@peterdao8552 Hey Peter. My some what confusion with the LYNX 2600 is WHY ?? The LYNX 2100/2200 are great machines, as long as you understand their limits ? But at least, still better than a HAAS Linear Lathe. When saying the LYNX is limited ask the question WHY make a 2600 ?? If the price is close to the 2100 I definitely understand the appeal of this machine for a new machine buyer. Larger Chuck with the Puma GT Tool Turret.( BMT55) My main confusion of WHY a LYNX 2600 ?? 10 inch Chuck ?? On a Linear Lathe ?? Just makes NO sense. A 10 inch Chuck is for Serious cutting ?? I will have a price of the LYNX 2600 as soon as my Doosan Dealer replies to my email ???? Locally a fully Loaded LYNX 2100 including tax is around 180k A fully Loaded Puma 2600 including tax is around 260k I am guessing the LYNX 2600 will be somewhere in the middle ?? For dollar sake i would prefer a Puma GT 2600 with C axis and a DNM 5700 A combination of these 2 machines together is not much more than a Puma 2600. Of course this is only my thoughts. But a Mill and a Lathe in a small shop is more useful than a Turn / Mill Maybe i will come back and edit this comment when i Finally have a price for the LYNX 2600 ?? At a guess i would say 210k - 220k ??

@@weldmachine I know for the Lynx 220 I have, we run barfeed stuff. And some of our work is more than 2-3/8" dia. We were looking at the Lynx 2600 to fill the gap between 2-3/8 - 3" dia, but up to that size, we preferred a boxway over a linear. Just more stable. A dedicated mill and lathe is always better! But mill turn is for convenience so you don't have to set-up fixtures on the mill. I luckily found a used 2017 Puma 2600 SY at a big fat discount with low hours. So I got very lucky with that.
