HAAS EC300 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The HAAS EC300 Horizontal Machining Center is a robust CNC machine designed for high-precision manufacturing. It features a dual-pallet system with each pallet measuring 11.8" x 11.8" and supports a maximum load of 550 lbs, enhancing workpiece changeover efficiency. The machine offers substantial travel on its linear axes: 20" on the X-axis, 18" on the Y-axis, and 14" on the Z-axis, allowing machining of complex parts within these envelopes. The B-axis provides full 4th-axis contouring with 360,000 positioning increments, enabling precise rotational control. Equipped with a 20 HP CAT40 spindle taper motor reaching speeds up to 12,000 RPM, it supports high-speed machining applications. The sidemounted automatic tool changer accommodates 24+1 tools, streamlining tool change times and expanding machining versatility. The machine’s footprint measures approximately 132" long by 133" wide by 93.8" high, and it weighs around 18,000 lbs, reflecting its sturdy construction. Additional features often integrated include Haas CNC control with USB emulator and remote job handle, pallet changer, coolant system, and chip conveyor to support continuous operation and part removal. The HAAS EC300’s combination of travel capacity, spindle power, tool capacity, and 4th-axis contouring capability makes it suitable for industries such as automotive, aerospace, and general manufacturing requiring reliable high-volume precision milling.
