Haas Automation Inc. has expanded its five axis machine tool line with the VF-2TR trunnion machining center, a compact VMC equipped with a factory-installed dual-axis trunnion table that provides full five axis capabilities for machining complex multi-sided parts in a single setup, reducing setup time and increasing part accuracy. based on the Haas VF-2, with 30 in. (762 mm) x 16 in. (406 mm) x 20 in. (508 mm) travels, 40-taper spindle and 20 hp vector dual-drive system, the VF-2TR features a Haas TR160 dual-axis trunnion table mounted to the standard T-slot table to provide five axis simultaneous motion or position a workpiece to nearly any angle for machining. The trunnion provides ±120° of tilt on the A axis and a full 360° of continuous rotation on the B axis. It can accommodate parts with a swing up to 17.5 in. (444.5 mm) and weighing up to 80 lb (part and fixture). The trunnions 160 mm platter features six precision T-slots equally spaced at 60° for easy fixturing. The TR160 can be removed from the VF-2TR when only three axis machining is required; the machines standard 36 in. (914 mm) x 14 in. (356 mm) T-slot table provides room for fixtures and vises. Precision mounting keys make reinstalling and aligning the trunnion quick and easy. The VF-2TR comes standard with a 24-pocket side-mount tool changer, automatic chip auger, programmable coolant nozzle, Visual Quick Code programming system, 15 in. colour LCD monitor with USB port, 16 MB of program memory, remote jog handle, spindle orientation, coordinate rotation and scaling, user-definable macros and high-speed machining control software with full look-ahead.
