HAAS VS-3 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC machine features a powerful 40 HP spindle motor with a robust CAT 50 spindle taper capable of speeds up to 15,000 RPM, delivering exceptional rigidity and stability for heavy-duty machining operations. The large 150 x 40 inch table supports a maximum load of 10,000 lbs, accommodating substantial workpieces. The machine offers extensive travel ranges of 120 inches on the X-axis, 40 inches on the Y-axis, and 30 inches on the Z-axis, with rapid traverse rates of 600 inches per minute across all axes, enabling efficient high-speed machining cycles. Its 30-tool capacity magazine supports tools up to 30 lbs in weight, 20 inches in length, and up to 4 inches in diameter fully loaded, with provisions for larger diameters when adjacent pockets are empty. The machine’s physical dimensions measuring 216 x 156 x 150 inches and a weight of 30,000 lbs reflect its industrial-grade construction. It operates on a 195-260 VAC, 50-60 Hz, 3-phase power supply and requires compressed air at 4 scfm and 100 psi. Coolant capacity is 95 gallons, supporting extended machining with coolant supply managed via programmable nozzles. The Haas CNC control system provides advanced functionalities including rigid tapping, spindle orientation, coordinate rotation, scaling, and user-definable macros to optimize complex machining operations. Standard features also include high-speed machining support and programmable coolant nozzle control for precision and flexibility. This configuration is ideal for heavy, high-precision milling tasks requiring significant workspace, tool capacity, and advanced control adaptability.
