Haas Automation, Inc. VF-2YT VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Haas VF-2YT Vertical Machining Center is a high-performance CNC mill engineered for precision and versatility in demanding production environments. Featuring a robust 36" x 18" table capable of supporting workpieces up to 3,000 lbs, the VF-2YT provides ample capacity for a wide range of machining tasks. The machine is equipped with a vertical CT 40 (optional BT 40) spindle, delivering 30 HP (30-minute rating) and a maximum speed of 8,100 RPM, ensuring both high torque and smooth operation for diverse materials and applications. Tool handling is managed by a 20-station automatic tool changer (ATC) with a rapid tool-to-tool change time of 4.2 seconds and chip-to-chip time of 4.5 seconds, enhancing productivity and minimizing downtime. The VF-2YT offers three primary axes (X, Y, Z) with travel distances of 30", 20", and 20" respectively, and supports optional fourth-axis integration for expanded machining capabilities. Each axis achieves a maximum feed rate of 650 ipm and rapid traverse speeds of 1,000 ipm, enabling fast and accurate movement. The machine’s design supports optional index and rotary tables, further increasing its flexibility for complex part setups. With its durable construction, advanced control system, and efficient tool management, the Haas VF-2YT is ideal for high-precision manufacturing, prototyping, and production applications.
