Haas Automation, Inc. VF-6SS VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Haas VF-6SS is a high-performance vertical machining center engineered for precision production and reduced cycle times. This three-axis machine (with optional fourth-axis capability) features a 64" × 32" × 30" travel envelope, accommodating workpieces up to 2,000 lbs on its 64" × 28" work table. The machine is equipped with a vertical CT 40 spindle (BT 40 optional) capable of 12,000 RPM standard, with an optional 15,000 RPM specification, and delivers 30 HP power output. Its inline direct-drive spindle generates 90 ft-lbs of torque at 2,000 RPM, enabling aggressive material removal across ferrous and non-ferrous applications. The VF-6SS features rapid traverse rates of 900 IPM on all axes and maximum cutting feedrates of 833 IPM, facilitating efficient high-speed machining operations. Tool management is handled by a 25-station automatic tool changer with 2.3-second tool-to-tool change time, minimizing production downtime. The machine incorporates brushless servo drives on all axes, rigid tapping capability, and a user-friendly Haas CNC control with ISO standard G-code programming. Optional features include 4th and 5th-axis drives, programmable coolant nozzle, chip auger system, and through-spindle coolant capability. Built entirely in the USA, the VF-6SS represents an exceptional value proposition for job shops and production facilities requiring versatile, reliable machining performance with straightforward operator interface.
