Haas Automation, Inc.

The ST-20SSY high speed turning center features a Y axis, C axis and live tooling to provide a four-axis solution for “done in one” machining of turned parts.   The turning center has a maximum cutting capacity of 10" × 20.5", with maximum swings of 31.75" over the front apron and 20.75" over the cross-slide.

The DT-1 from Haas Automation Inc., is a compact, high-speed drill and tap machine with full milling capabilities.

 The company has redesigned its entire VF product line to incorporate a range of enhancements.

The Haas ST-30 turning center was designed from the ground up to be extremely rigid, highly accurate and thermally stable. All castings were optimized using finite element analysis to produce the most rigid designs, while improving chip and coolant flow, and simplifying maintenance and service, the company says.

A three-, four- or five-axis vertical machining cneter can run the gamut of capability and cost. Assessing your application requirements now and in the future can make for a much wiser machining cneter purchase.

Haas Automation Inc. offers a line of VMCs designed for the moldmaking, tool and die and medical industries. Called the VM Series, these VMCs provide the accuracy, rigidity and thermal stability required for high precision work, the company says.

Haas toolroom mills are available in three sizes. Travels are 30" x 12" x 16" for the TM-1, 40" x 16" x 16" for the TM-2 and 40" x 20" x 16" for the TM-3. For production work, fully enclosed versions of the TM-1 and TM-3 are available as the TM-1P and TM-3P.

Many shops today are looking to automation and automatic part loading as a means to reduce costs and increase throughput. The SL-20APL from Haas Automation Inc. is a compact lathe with an integrated automatic parts loader that automatically picks up parts from an external tray and loads them into the lathe for untended turning or flips parts automatically for double-ended machining.

The SL-20L and SL-30L long-bed lathes from Haas Automation, provide longer turning lengths without jumping up to a much larger, and more expensive, machine. These machines offer double (SL-20L) or almost double (SL-30L) the turning length of the standard machines, while maintaining the same maximum turning diameter

The Haas ST-30 turning center offers castings that are optimized using finite element analysis to produce the most rigid designs, while improving chip and coolant flow and simplifying maintenance and service. The spindle head features a 45-degree wedge design that increases the tool-mounting envelope and improves chip flow.

Haas' EC-630PP HMC includes the addition of a six-station pallet pool, which brings true lights-out machining capability to small and medium-sized manufacturers and production shops. Designed for high-volume production and untended operation, the Haas EC-630PP features a 40" × 33" × 35" work envelope, a 50-taper geared-head spindle, a six-station pallet pool with 630-mm pallets and a high-precision, 1-degree pallet indexer. For long-cycle production with minimal non-cutting, the EC-630 is equipped with 72-pocket side-mount toolchanger, a large-volume coolant tank and a high-capacity belt conveyor for efficient chip removal.

Haas Automation Inc. will launch the Haas Technical Center (HTEC) program for Europe. Already successful in U.

The EC-400PP HMC from Haas Automation expands the company's EC series of HMCs. It has added the integrated, six-station pallet pool tot he EC-400. Designed for high-volume production and untended operation, the machine features a 70-pocket side-mount toolchanger, 1,000 ipm rapids, 300-psi through-spindle coolant, 1 MB of program memory, USB port, remote job handle and a high-volume coolant system.

The Haas TL-15 and TL-25 dual-spindle lathes from Haas Automation allow turning of double-ended parts in a single setup on one machine. Built on Haas's SL-20 and SL-30 platforms, the TL-15 and TL-25 CNC lathes feature a vector drive spindle, a hydraulic chucking system, an 8-hp subspindle with a 5. 3" chuck and a 12-station hybrid tool turret that holds a combination of six VDI 40 tools and six bolt-on tools.

Getting there fast is often a sign of success. For this ski and boat enthusiast, it isn’t just the speed of the boat, but the growth of his shop that has heads, and parts, turning.

The Haas TM-3P toolroom mill is based on the Haas TM-3, but has many standard features that make it well suited for the production environment. It comes "out of box" with faster speeds, an automatic toolchanger and a full enclosure. The TM-3P's reliable 7.

The Haas Toolroom Lathe series offers versatility in turning diameters to 30" and lengths to 60". With a functional range from manual turning to full CNC, Haas Toolroom Lathes feature a proprietary conversational operating system that makes cutting parts and creating part programs nearly effortless. The operator chooses an operation, touches off the X and Z surfaces, and is then prompted to enter basic dimension information.

Designed specifically for mold makers, the Haas VM Series are high-performance machines featuring a generous work cubes and tables, and a 12,000-rpm spindle powered by a 30-hp vector dual drive system. These mills are equipped with a high-speed control with full look-ahead, and the 40-taper spindle uses a unique inline, direct-drive system that couples the motor directly to the spindle rather than using belts (which are a major source of heat). The result is less vibration, less heat and less noise - which means excellent surface finishes, extreme thermal stability and quiet operation.

The OL-1 office mill is small enough to fit through a 36" doorway and can be moved easily with a pallet jack or equipment dolly. The lathe from Haas Automation is equipped with a 5-hp (peak) spindle that spins to 6,000 rpm. The threaded 5C collet spindle features an automatic air-closer, and accepts a number of optional chucks.

The GT-20 lathe from Haas is designed to deliver high power and a high range of speeds in a small footprint production machine. The lathe takes up 8' × 4. 5' of floor space, yet offers an 11" × 12" maximum capacity, making it an especially useful "chucker" lathe for shops where space is at a premium.

Regarded by Haas Automation, Inc. as its most compact 50-taper machine to date, the VF-3YT/50 features a 40" × 26" × 25" work envelope and a 54" × 25" table, an increase of 6" compared to the VF-3. The extended Y-axis travel is achieved through a larger base casting, yet the machine retains a footprint only slightly larger than the standard VF-3.

The TL-1 toolroom lathe combines the functionality and simplicity of a manual lathe with the power and flexibility of the Haas CNC system, according to the company. The lathe provides a maximum cutting diameter of 16" and a maximum cutting length of 30". The maximum part swing is 16" over the front apron and 8.

The SL-10 takes up only 6. 5' x 4. 5' of floor space, yet provides a generous 11" turning diameter, 14" turning length and a 16.

The new Mini Lathe has a small footprint (5. 5' × 4. 5') and is a gang-tool turning center designed to fit into the tightest spaces of a machine shop.

This brochure illustrates the company's office-ready OL-1 lathe and OM-1 mill, which have full CNC capabilities.  Specifications and photos are provided. .

The EC-400 HMC from Haas is a T-base horizontal machining center with a work cube of 20" x 20" x 20", a dual pallet changer with 400-mm pallets and a built-in rotary indexer. The HMC comes standard with an 8,000-rpm, 40-taper spindle powered by a 20-hp vector dual drive system. Also standard is a side-mount tool changer (24+1 tools), 1,000-ipm rapids and a high-volume coolant system.

The company has expanded its line of toolroom products with the TL-2 toolroom lathe, which provides all the advantages of the original TL-1, plus more power and larger capacity, according to the company. The new Intuitive Turning System software is said to make the lathe easy to set up and operate without the knowledge of G-code programming. The lathe provides a maximum cutting diameter of 16" and a maximum cutting length of 48".

When this shop needed a new turning center to produce small parts quickly, it looked to the Haas Mini Lathe for the solution.

CNC lathes and machining centers provide the finishing touch for near-net-shape semiconductor housing parts.

The Mini Lathe has 7. 5 hp vector drive, 6,000 rpm spindle, 5C collet chuck, up to 1. 96" bar capacity, rigid tapping, coolant pump, 1 MB expanded memory, 10-position gang-style tooling, high speed brushless servo motors and more.
