Haas Automation, Inc. VF-9/50 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical machining center features a robust table measuring 84.000 inches in length by 36.000 inches in width, capable of supporting workpieces up to 4,000 lbs, making it suitable for heavy-duty machining applications. The spindle is vertically oriented with a CT or BT #50 taper, providing high rigidity and compatibility with a wide range of tooling for demanding milling tasks. Spindle speeds reach up to 7,500 RPM standard and 10,000 RPM optional, paired with a 30 HP (30-minute rating) motor for powerful cutting performance. The machine is equipped with a 31-tool automatic tool changer (ATC), enabling efficient tool changes with a tool-to-tool time of 4.2 seconds and chip-to-chip time of 6.3 seconds, minimizing downtime and maximizing productivity. The system operates on three primary axes (X, Y, Z) with optional fourth-axis capability, offering X-axis travel of 84.000 inches, Y-axis travel of 40.000 inches, and Z-axis travel of 30.000 inches. Maximum feed rates are 500 inches per minute, and rapid traverse rates reach 600 inches per minute across all axes, ensuring fast and precise movement. The machine also supports A-axis rotation up to 110.000 degrees and B-axis rotation up to 360.000 degrees for complex multi-sided machining. Designed for versatility and high throughput, this machining center is ideal for industries requiring precision, heavy cutting, and efficient production.
