Compact Rotary Table

Fit a large peg into a small hole? Absolutely, with the new Haas HRT 310-SP. The HRT 310-SP is a specially designed rotary table with a wrap-around motor enclosure to provide a substantially shorter overall length. Based on the shop-proven HRT 310, the 310-SP delivers the same performance as the standard model, but in a more compact package. With an operational length of just 16.26 inches, the new HRT 310-SP saves more than 8-inches of valuable space when compared to the 24.30-inch-long standard model. Available in either brush or brushless* configurations, this 310 mm (12.2-inch) rotary table is easily adaptable to existing shop requirements. Additional features include an ample 200 ft-lb of torque, accuracy of ±15 arc-sec and repeatability of 10 arc-sec.

Haas Unveils New 600 mm Rotary Table – a Giant from the Giant

Size really can make a difference, especially when you’re talking big production. The new Haas HRT 600 rotary table is a formidable tool designed to position and rotate large, heavy loads like engine blocks, aircraft parts and bulky castings with precision. Platter size on the new table is a generous 600 mm (23.62 inches) across the face with six equally-spaced T-slots for mounting parts and fixtures. 

Designed to function best with large-sized machining centers like the VF-9, -10 and  -11 VMCs or the HS-3 HMC, the HRT 600 is a big table – and it’s very precise, with indexing accuracy of ±15 arc-seconds and repeatability of 10 arc-seconds.

Live Tooling Reduces Setups, Increases Productivity

The ability to perform secondary operations without moving parts to another machine is a sure way to boost productivity, increase accuracy and reduce labor costs. 

The new live tooling option for Haas lathes allows you to drive standard VDI axial or radial tools to perform such operations as milling, drilling or slotting – both on the face of the part and around the diameter. 

The lathe’s main spindle allows synchronous motion for milling flats, hexes and flutes, and is indexable in one degree increments for precise part positioning and repeatability. A powerful hydraulic brake locks the spindle during secondary operations, yet fully disengages for turning and synchronous motion. The live tooling option may be ordered with a VDI turret (configured for standard 40 mm shank VDI tools), or the standard Haas turret may be used in conjunction with Haas VDI adapters. Combined, these new capabilities make Haas lathes even more productive, and will help you turn bigger profits.
