Shops requiring the cutting capabilities of a 50-taper machine in a small footprint can consider Haas Automation’s VF-3YT/50 VMC with extended Y-axis travel. The VMC features a work envelope with dimensions of 40" × 26" × 25" and a 54" × 25" table. Cast-iron construction provides the rigidity and stability necessary for heavy cutting, the company says, and the wide T-slot table accommodates fixturing and large parts.
