Overview
The Hyundai WIA L3000SY Series is the largest member of Hyundai WIA's SY-class multi-axis turning center lineup, delivering full mill-turn capability with a 12-inch main chuck, 6-inch sub-spindle, Y-axis, and live tooling. Designed for shops that regularly machine medium-to-large diameter complex parts complete in one setup, the L3000SY handles workpieces up to 420 mm (16.5 in) turning diameter with 760 mm (29.9 in) maximum turning length.
The spindle delivers a substantial 37/25 kW (49.6/33.5 hp) at up to 3,000 RPM, generating 1,262/1,003 N.m of torque. This is significantly more power and torque than the L2000SY (22 kW) and L2600SY (22 kW), making the L3000SY the right choice for shops that routinely rough large-diameter parts in steel, stainless, and alloy materials. The 12-inch main chuck provides secure clamping on larger workpiece diameters that 8-inch and 10-inch chucks cannot accommodate.
The wedge-type Y-axis BMT65P turret carries 12 tool stations with 5,000 RPM live milling capability and 25/50 mm tool capacity. Y-axis travel of 120 mm (+/-60 mm) enables off-center milling, drilling, and tapping operations. Box way construction provides the rigidity essential for stable heavy turning and milling operations. Rapid traverse of 30/10/30/30 m/min on X/Y/Z/ZB axes maintains productive non-cutting time. Synchronized main/sub spindle control enables coordinated part handoff for complete backworking capability.
New L3000SY Series machines price between $180,000 and $270,000. The machine competes with the DN Solutions Puma 3100 LMSY, Mazak QT-300MSY, and Okuma LB4000 EX MY. The L3000SY's combination of 37 kW spindle power, 12-inch chuck, BMT turret rigidity, and competitive Korean pricing makes it a compelling option for shops needing heavy-duty mill-turn capability without the premium pricing of Japanese and European alternatives.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 37 kW spindle power with 1,262 N.m torque delivers heavy-duty roughing capability that 22 kW class machines cannot match on larger workpiece diameters
- 12-inch main chuck provides secure clamping on larger-diameter workpieces that 8-inch and 10-inch chuck machines struggle with
- Wedge-type BMT65P turret delivers superior rigidity for milling operations compared to VDI turrets, enabling aggressive milling parameters
- Complete done-in-one capability with sub-spindle, Y-axis, and 5,000 RPM live tooling eliminates secondary operations and reduces work-in-process
- Box way construction provides the rigidity essential for combined heavy turning and milling operations without chatter
- 15-25% price advantage versus comparable Japanese and European 12-inch chuck mill-turn machines
Limitations
- 3,000 RPM maximum spindle speed limits surface speed on small-diameter finishing passes -- the L2000SY offers 5,000 RPM for small parts
- 10 m/min Y-axis rapid traverse is relatively slow for programs with frequent Y-axis repositioning
- 6-inch sub-spindle is undersized relative to the 12-inch main chuck, limiting the diameter of parts that can be backworked
- 37 kW spindle and heavy construction make this machine overkill for shops primarily producing small, lightweight parts

Frequently Asked Questions
01
New L3000SY Series machines price between $180,000 and $270,000 depending on options. A complete cell with bar feeder and parts management typically runs $210,000-$300,000. The L3000SY offers 15-25% savings versus comparable Mazak QT-300MSY and Okuma LB4000 EX MY machines.
02
The L3000SY has a larger 12-inch main chuck (vs. 10-inch) and significantly more spindle power -- 37 kW vs. 22 kW, with 1,262 N.m vs. 599 N.m of torque. Both share the same BMT65P turret, Y-axis travel, and maximum turning dimensions. Choose the L3000SY for heavier cuts on larger or tougher workpiece materials.
03
Yes. The 37 kW spindle with 1,262 N.m torque and box way construction provide the power and rigidity for machining aerospace alloys. Through-spindle coolant (high-pressure option) and appropriate tooling are recommended. The L3000SY handles these demanding materials better than smaller machines in the SY series.
04
Bar capacity through the 12-inch main spindle is typically in the 80-100 mm range, though exact specifications vary by spindle configuration. Contact your Hyundai WIA dealer for the specific bar capacity of your configuration. For bar-fed production of larger diameter stock, the L3000SY accommodates sizes that 8-inch and 10-inch chuck machines cannot.
