Haas MiniMill VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC vertical machining center features a 15 HP spindle motor delivering up to 6,000 RPM through a CAT 40 spindle taper, powered by a direct-speed belt drive system that generates a maximum torque of 33 ft-lb at 1,200 RPM. It provides a 10-tool carousel with rapid tool change times averaging 3.6 seconds and a tool-to-tool change time averaging 3.6 seconds, facilitating efficient machining cycles. The worktable measures 36" x 12", with a maximum load capacity of 500 lbs, supported by standard 3 T-slots of 5/8" width spaced 4.92" apart. Axis travels include 16" on X, 12" on Y, and 10" on Z, with rapid traverse rates up to 600 inches per minute (IPM) and cutting feed rates reaching 500 IPM, ensuring fast and precise movements. The machine dimensions are 84" wide, 90" deep, and 98" high, weighing 3,400 lbs. It operates on a 240V, 3-phase power supply and uses a Haas CNC control system known for user-friendly G-code programming, tool offset management, and advanced machining features. Cooling is managed by a flood coolant system with a 40-gallon capacity and washdown hoses. The air requirement is 4 SCFM at 100 PSI. Tooling accommodates a maximum diameter of 3.5" without adjacent tools and 2" with adjacent tools, with a maximum tool weight of 12 lbs. The table’s build and machine rigidity support medium-duty machining with high-speed capabilities for production and prototyping environments. The combination of rapid feed rates and fast tool changes reduces cycle times, making this machine suitable for flexible manufacturing applications.
