2006 HAAS VF3ss/APC
Options include:
SS, Pallet-Changer, and 40+1 Tool Side-Mount ATC.
Also wired and equipped for both 4th & 5th axis.
90 gallon coolant tank, 34 position P-Cool, and chip auger.
1200CFM Mist-Away mist collector.
This machine is RS-232 only. No USB. Not even floppy. RS-232 only.
Although: I just had a tech here to replace the battery. He told me everything is there to install a floppy. Even the cable to the control.
Which means, it would be easy to do a USB emulator. I have the RS-232 dialed in well, and this machine is dedicated to one part. So I have no need.
Spindle, and all axis run quiet and smooth. Please come inspect.
It runs production for 8hrs minimum daily. It will be running if you come to inspect before 3pm.
So, expect to see a dirty machine full of chips, making hundreds of parts daily. (I did NOT clean it for the pics)
I try to keep a tidy shop and machines. But, it is in a working shop. Its not squeaky clean. Study the pics.
I highly recommend an inspection in person. If I sell this I do not want any surprises!
I am getting 100% spindle up-time in this machine. It runs perfectly. The pallet changer is a godsend to throughput!
I will leave the 1.5" mic-6 sub-plates on the pallets if desired.
But, the vises are not included. Unless one wants to pay for them. A deal could be worked up if somebody really wanted them.
Only reason I am selling: as awesome as the pallet changer has been, I bought a Brother R650X1, and it is significantly more efficient.
I want to sell the HAAS, and buy another Brother R650X1. The HAAS will remain in production until that happens. But, another Brother is the plan.
$49,500 and I will pay my rigger to pull it and set on your transport.
On the 40 tool ATC: in production, across many vises or parts, it's great. Pre-call tool staging eliminates a lag.
I am running 10 parts per pallet, and even a simple spot-drill hitting a single hole per part, allows enough time to pre-stage any tool on the wheel.
If you would be running single parts, or any cycle less than about 30 seconds, there can be a lag while the big carousel catches up.
Just a friendly warning (something I never even though about before purchase). In those quicker situations, a guy might be better off with a 24+1 changer.
Full disclosure: This thing is set up to run a 5 axis trunnion.
Well, the B-axis servo drive is in a fault condition. The little fuse that lights up orange when they go, is lit up orange.
I was supposed to get the trunnion when I bought the machine. But, well, don't get me started on that. That is a sour subject.....
I have no need for that drive currently, so I have not had it repaired.
That is the only issue. Everything else functions 100%. I obviously installed air-lines at all three stations.
This was done with copper tubing across the rear/top of the machine in a very neat and clean fashion.
It is much nicer than the garbage it left HAAS with in 06'. I like a lot of air for blowing stuff off. Somebody else may want a regulator! HAHA
I also installed a coolant filter, and proper wash-down hose. Again, nice stuff.
I also replaced the coolant feed line to the spindle head at that time. That stuff gets dry and cracks.
