2016 HAAS VF5-50TR VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 2016 Haas VF5-50TR is a 5-axis vertical machining center built on Haas's proven VF-series platform. The TR configuration integrates a trunnion rotary table, expanding the machine to full 5-axis simultaneous machining capability. This allows complex multi-face parts to be completed in a single setup, reducing fixturing time and improving geometric accuracy. The machine offers a work envelope of 60 inches in X, 26 inches in Y, and 25 inches in Z, with a 72 x 24-inch worktable providing a large fixturing surface for production and prototype work. The inline direct-drive spindle delivers 30 HP (continuous) and reaches a maximum speed of 7,500 RPM, covering a broad range of materials from cast iron and steel to aluminum and non-ferrous alloys. The CAT 50 spindle provides robust toolholder retention for demanding contouring and indexing operations. The Haas CNC controller supports full 5-axis simultaneous interpolation, TCPC (Tool Center Point Control), and DWO (Dynamic Work Offsets) for streamlined 5-axis programming. Built on a heavily ribbed cast-iron structure, the VF5-50TR provides the thermal stability and vibration damping required for consistent part accuracy over extended production runs. Machine weight is approximately 24,000 lbs, reflecting the robust casting and linear-guide construction. This unit is suitable for job shops, tier suppliers, and in-house manufacturing operations requiring a reliable large-format VMC.
