2023 HAAS MINI MILL VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 2023 Haas Mini Mill is a 3-axis vertical machining center designed for high-production work in a compact footprint. Built for shops that need reliable performance without sacrificing valuable floor space, the Mini Mill delivers the full capability of a larger machining center in a space-efficient package. The machine features a 16 x 12 x 10 inch work envelope (X, Y, Z travels) paired with an 18 x 16 inch T-slot worktable, providing ample fixturing area for small-to-medium workpieces. The inline direct-drive spindle operates at up to 6,000 RPM and is powered by a 7.5 HP vector drive motor, delivering consistent torque across the speed range. The CAT40 taper spindle accommodates standard tooling widely available in job shop environments. Axis motion is driven by high-precision ballscrews on all three axes, ensuring repeatable positioning accuracy across production runs. The machine is controlled by the Haas NGC control, which offers an intuitive operator interface, built-in programming features, and compatibility with standard G-code programs. The rigid cast iron construction minimizes vibration during cutting and contributes to long-term dimensional accuracy. Standard features include a coolant system, chip auger, and automatic tool changer, making the Mini Mill well-suited for prototyping, light production, and toolroom applications where floor space is at a premium. At approximately 4,400 lbs, the machine provides a stable cutting platform despite its compact design.
