With over 150,000 machines installed worldwide in the past 31 years, all manufactured in a one million square foot facility in Southern California, Haas has a unique place among CNC machine tool builders. The company’s success comes from listening to the needs of CNC shops, like yours, and providing high value solutions. Here are 7 facts you should know if you are considering a CNC machine investment:
- Any machine is only as reliable as its weakest parts. That’s why Haas CNC machines use motion control components from the industry’s most respected suppliers including Mitsubishi, Yaskawa, Rexroth, NSK, THK, Schneeberger, INA, Steinmeyer, Nachi, Timken, SKF and NSK.
- Haas practices continuous improvement in all aspects of machine design and construction. For example, cable routing has recently become better organized and neater, while axes are now grease lubricated for better protection and reduced impact on the environment.
- Improved productivity comes from both the CNC machine and the operator. Haas makes each machine tool operator friendly with such standard features as a sturdy workstation with a work light, tool bin and tool racks. Air hoses and coolant wash-down hoses are easily accessible. Machine doors have high-impact safety glass for better operator protection and the ability to see inside the machine.
- One control for every Haas machine. Because Haas designs and builds its own control system, operators can move easily from one Haas machine to another. The keypad layout has even remained the same since the first machine built.
- Subsystems engineered specifically for machine tool use. Haas designs and builds most of the CNC machine subsystems in house. This enables us to constantly look for ways to improve performance. Recent examples are TSC systems that are redesigned to remove costly, failure-prone bearings and the rerouting of cables and hoses for easier servicing.
- Replacement parts availability for even the oldest Haas machines. The same control is used for all Haas CNC machines as are other components including spindle drives, processors and axis amplifiers. Using your machine serial number you can easily find parts online at haasparts.com and order them through your Milwaukee Haas factory Outlet.
- Your Torrance Haas Factory Outlet is at your service. Our service technicians arrive at your CNC shop in a fully stocked service truck to provide installation, trouble-shooting and routine maintenance. We carry an inventory of replacement parts for next day delivery, and our experience applications engineers will help you find solutions to your most challenging machining issues.
