Overview
The Hyundai WIA LV2000MM is the largest vertical turning center in the Hyundai WIA lineup, capable of machining workpieces up to 2,000 mm (78.7 in) diameter. The MM designation indicates a milling-capable configuration with live tooling at 2,400 RPM, making this a true vertical mill-turn platform. With a 63-inch chuck and gear-driven spindle producing 37/30 kW (49.6/40.2 hp) and a massive 22,096/17,916 N.m of torque, the LV2000MM handles the largest and heaviest disc-shaped workpieces in industrial manufacturing.
The gear-driven spindle operates at up to 258 RPM -- a low maximum speed that reflects the massive workpiece diameters where even modest RPM generates very high surface speeds at the OD. At 2,000 mm diameter, 258 RPM produces approximately 1,620 m/min surface speed, which is more than sufficient for steel and cast iron turning. The 18-station turret with 32/25 mm tool capacity and 2,400 RPM live milling tooling provides comprehensive capability for OD/ID turning, facing, boring, drilling, tapping, and milling operations in a single setup.
Box way construction on both axes provides the absolute rigidity required for stable cutting on workpieces that can weigh several tons. Axis travels are generous: X-axis ranges from -250 to +1,180 mm, and Z-axis provides 915 mm (36 in) of travel. Rapid traverse of 12 m/min (472 ipm) on both axes is appropriate for positioning on this scale of machine.
New LV2000MM machines price between $600,000 and $900,000 depending on options and automation. The machine competes with Toshiba TUE series, You Ji VTL-25/32, Berthiez RVU, and Dorries Scharmann large VTLs. For shops requiring 2-meter class vertical turning capability, the LV2000MM offers genuine heavy-duty performance at pricing that significantly undercuts European competitors.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 2,000 mm maximum turning diameter with 63-inch chuck handles the largest disc-shaped workpieces in industrial production
- 22,096 N.m of spindle torque from gear drive provides the cutting force needed for heavy roughing on multi-ton forgings and castings
- 18-station turret with 2,400 RPM live milling enables complete mill-turn operations on large parts in a single setup
- 1,700 mm maximum turning height accommodates very tall cylindrical components and deep boring operations
- Box way construction delivers absolute rigidity for stable cutting on workpieces weighing several tons
- Competitive Korean pricing at $600K-$900K represents significant savings versus equivalent European 2-meter class VTLs
Limitations
- 258 RPM maximum table speed limits the machine to large-diameter work -- completely impractical for small parts
- Machine footprint, weight, and foundation requirements are very substantial, requiring dedicated factory space and heavy rigging
- 12 m/min rapid traverse adds significant non-cutting time on complex programs with many tool changes and positions
- Service and spare parts availability for this size of Hyundai WIA VTL may be limited compared to established large VTL manufacturers

Frequently Asked Questions
01
New LV2000MM machines price between $600,000 and $900,000 depending on options including tooling packages, automation interfaces, and measurement systems. Installation, rigging, and foundation work for a machine of this size typically add $40,000-$80,000. The LV2000MM offers substantial savings versus European 2-meter class VTLs which often exceed $1 million.
02
The LV2000MM is designed for workpieces weighing up to approximately 10,000-15,000 kg, typical for 2-meter class VTLs. The exact rating depends on workpiece geometry and clamping configuration. A dedicated crane or overhead hoist is required for workpiece loading at this scale.
03
MM indicates a milling-capable configuration with live tooling. The LV2000MM includes a 2,400 RPM milling spindle in the turret for drilling, tapping, milling bolt hole patterns, keyways, and other secondary operations. This eliminates the need to transfer large, heavy workpieces to a second machine for non-turning operations.
04
European 2-meter class VTLs from Berthiez, Dorries Scharmann, and Pietro Carnaghi typically offer more mature automation integration and established service networks but cost 30-50% more. The LV2000MM provides comparable cutting performance and rigidity at significantly lower acquisition cost, making it attractive for shops where the Hyundai WIA service network is adequate.
