HAAS VF-11/50 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The HAAS VF-11/50 is a high-performance 4-axis vertical machining center designed for machining large parts with precision and efficiency. It features an expansive work envelope with X, Y, and Z travels of 120 in, 40 in, and 30 in respectively, supported by a robust 30 HP spindle motor capable of up to 7,500 RPM. The machine is equipped with a CAT/BT 50 taper spindle and a two-speed gearbox delivering 450 ft-lbs of torque at 500 RPM, ideal for demanding applications like large hole drilling and heavy milling. The sizable table measures 120 in by 28-30 in and can support loads up to 4,000 lbs, facilitating large workpieces. Tool management is enhanced with a 30-station automatic tool changer (ATC) accommodating various tool diameters and lengths, increasing operational flexibility. The VF-11/50 integrates advanced features including a servo-driven 12.2 in rotary table enabling 4th axis machining, a through-spindle coolant system rated at 1,000 PSI for improved cutting tool life and chip evacuation, and an automatic chip auger system for efficient chip removal. Rapid traverse rates reach up to 360 IPM on the X-axis and 600 IPM on the Y and Z axes, optimizing cycle times. The machine supports rigid tapping, programmable coolant nozzles, and remote jog handles with color LCD displays for enhanced operator control. Memory capacity of 1 GB and Ethernet connectivity facilitate complex program storage and integration. Built for heavy-duty industrial use, the VF-11/50 is versatile and reliable, widely used in aerospace, automotive, and manufacturing sectors for high-precision, large-scale machining tasks.
