Haas VF-9/40 (2013) is a large-frame vertical machining center designed for heavy-duty applications. Thanks to its extensive work envelope, this model is ideal for machining large parts, molds, and dies while maintaining the high precision and speed characteristic of Haas machines.
Key Advantages
This 2013 model combines the reliability of a proven design with modern options for high productivity.
- Large Travels: The VF-9 series allows you to work with parts that do not fit in standard machines, ensuring versatility for your production.
- High-Speed Spindle: The 10,000 RPM spindle (SK40 taper) ensures excellent surface finish, even when machining aluminum and non-ferrous metals.
- Ready for Upgrades: The machine is "4th Axis Ready" (pre-wired), making it easy to install a rotary table for multi-sided machining.
- Productivity: The Rigid Tapping function accelerates drilling and tapping cycles, eliminating the need for floating tap holders.
