HAAS VF-2B VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC machining center delivers precision and productivity with a 20 HP spindle motor capable of 7,500 RPM and a CAT 40 taper, accommodating tools up to 12 lbs and 11" in length. The machine features a generous 36" x 14" work table with a 3,000 lb load capacity and 20-station automatic tool changer for rapid tool changes. Axis travel dimensions of 30" (X), 16" (Y), and 20" (Z) support diverse workpieces, while rapid traverse rates reaching 1,000 IPM minimize non-cutting time. The Haas CNC control system provides intuitive operation with advanced features including rigid tapping, high-speed machining algorithms that reduce cycle times through complex tool paths, and quick code programming capabilities. The machine incorporates a programmable coolant nozzle and 55-gallon coolant capacity for extended operations. Connectivity options include Ethernet, USB, and RS 232 interfaces for seamless integration into modern shop floor networks, complemented by a remote jog handle for operator convenience. The integrated chip auger system manages debris automatically, while the 4th axis drive and wiring enable rotational machining capabilities. Power requirements are 195-260 VAC, 3-phase, 50-60 Hz, with 4 SCFM air at 100 PSI. Weighing 7,500 lbs and measuring 88" x 93" x 104", this robust machine accommodates heavy repetitive loads and complex 3D machining operations. The floppy disk drive provides legacy program compatibility, making this a versatile platform for both traditional and contemporary manufacturing applications.
