The standard 8000-rpm, 40-taper spindle is powered by the Haas 20 hp (14.9 kW) vector drive system; an optional 30-hp (22.4 kW) , 12 K spindle is also available. <\/p>\n<p>Both spindles feature an inline, direct-drive system that couples the motor directly to the spindle, for less vibration, heat and noise &#8211; which means superior surface finishes, excellent thermal stability and quieter operation. A 24+1 side-mount tool changer and 500 ipm (12.7 m\/min) cutting feeds are also standard. <\/p>\n<p>The Haas control features advanced tool management, single-button features, 15&#8243; color LCD monitor and USB port. <\/p>\n<p>The servo-driven pallet changer on the EC-400 swaps pallets in just 8 seconds, and each 400 mm pallet has a load capacity of 1000 lb (454 kg). A separate load station allows the operator to safely load\/unload parts or change fixtures on one pallet while parts are being machined on the other, keeping spindle run time at a maximum. <\/p>\n<p>For extremely accurate positioning of multi-faceted parts, a high-precision face-gear indexer &#8212; providing 1-degree indexing &#8212; is standard. A full 4th-axis rotary table is also available for shops requiring simultaneous 4-axis motion, and a 5th axis can be added for complex work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The high-productivity features on the Haas EC-400 horizontal machining center include 20&#8243; x 20&#8243; x 20&#8243; (508 x 508 x 508 mm) work cube, dual 400 mm pallets, 1-degree indexing, a 95-gallon (360 liter) coolant system and triple-auger chip removal.
