2007 HAAS VF5B VERTICAL MACHINING CENTERS

Technical Description

The 2007 Haas VF5B is a 3-axis vertical machining center built on Haas's proven VF-series platform. The B designation denotes the Big Bore spindle configuration, featuring a larger spindle bore diameter that accommodates larger-shank tooling and improves rigidity on deep-cavity or large-diameter cutting operations. The machine offers a work envelope of 60 inches in X, 26 inches in Y, and 25 inches in Z, with a 76 x 20-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 machine runs the Haas CNC control platform, offering G-code programming, rigid tapping, and a 30+1 side-mount automatic tool changer. CAT 40 tooling is standard, and the large worktable provides ample fixturing room for complex part setups. Built on a heavily ribbed cast-iron structure, the VF5B provides the thermal stability and vibration damping required for consistent part accuracy over extended production runs. Machine weight is approximately 22,000 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.
