HAAS VF-3APC VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC machining center features a robust 3-axis configuration with travel capacities of 40 inches (X), 20 inches (Y), and 25 inches (Z), suitable for versatile machining applications. It is equipped with a 20 HP spindle delivering speeds up to 7,500 RPM via a CAT-40 taper, supporting a wide range of tooling options with a 40-position automatic tool changer (one pocket removed) for efficient tool management. The worktable measures 40 inches in length and 19 inches in width, providing ample space for secure workpiece mounting and machining. The machine includes advanced features such as a 2-speed gearbox enabling variable feed rates to optimize cutting performance and power transmission. Cooling systems consist of a 300 PSI through-spindle coolant setup plus auxiliary coolant, coupled with a programmable coolant nozzle for targeted thermal management and chip evacuation, enhanced further by a chip auger system. High-intensity lighting ensures optimal visibility during operations. Additional capabilities include an automatic pallet changer for workflow enhancement, a remote jog handle for flexible manual positioning, and pre-wiring for a future 4th axis, allowing later expansion for complex multi-axis machining. Overall, this machine delivers precision, efficiency, and flexible tooling solutions, suited for medium to high-speed milling tasks in diverse manufacturing and fabrication environments.
