The new DT-1 from Haas Automation Inc. is a compact, high speed drill and tap machine with full milling capabilities.

The machine features a generous 20 in. x 16 in. x 15.5 in. (508 mm x 406 mm x 394 mm) work cube and 26 in. x 15 in. (660 mm x 381 mm) T-slot table, while maintaining a very small footprint. A powerful BT30 taper spindle spins to 15,000 rpm, and allows tapping at speeds to 5000 rpm. The spindle is coupled directly to the motor for smooth, quiet operation and thermal stability.

A 15-hp vector drive system provides 46 ft-lb (peak) of cutting torque for milling and boring operations. The DT-1 is equipped with a high speed, 20-pocket, servo-driven tool changer that swaps tools in 0.8 seconds. High speed 2400 ipm rapids combine with 1G acceleration rates to shorten cycle times and reduce non-cutting time. The maximum cutting feedrate is 1200 ipm.

For efficient chip removal, the DT-1 features steeply sloped internal sheet metal. Optional twin chip augers transport chips to the rear of the machine for discharge. A 45-gallon flood coolant system is standard, with options for a programmable coolant nozzle and high-pressure through-spindle coolant systems.
