USED HAAS VF3YT 2017

The 2017 Haas VF3YT is a high-performance 3-axis Vertical Machining Center (VMC) designed for manufacturers requiring additional Y-axis travel while maintaining the compact footprint and proven reliability of the Haas VF Series. The “YT” (Extended Y Travel) configuration offers 26 inches of Y-axis travel, making it ideal for machining larger components, multiple-part fixtures, mold bases, and complex workpieces that require increased machining capacity. Built with a rigid cast-iron frame, powerful inline spindle, and the advanced Haas Next Generation Control (NGC), the 2017 Haas VF3YT is widely used in aerospace, automotive, medical, mold making, energy, and precision manufacturing environments.

The machine provides 40 inches of X-axis travel, 26 inches of Y-axis travel, and 25 inches of Z-axis travel, offering a significantly larger work envelope than the standard VF3 while maintaining excellent rigidity and machining accuracy. The heavily ribbed cast-iron construction minimizes vibration during aggressive cutting, while precision linear guideways and oversized ballscrews ensure exceptional positioning accuracy and repeatability. Whether machining aluminum, stainless steel, titanium, cast iron, or engineering plastics, the VF3YT consistently delivers superior surface finishes and reliable dimensional accuracy.

Powering the machine is a 30 HP, 8,100 RPM inline direct-drive CAT40 spindle producing approximately 90 ft-lb of torque. The direct-drive spindle provides excellent thermal stability and smooth power delivery for both heavy roughing and precision finishing applications. The standard 20-station automatic carousel tool changer ensures dependable tool changes, while many machines were ordered with optional 30+1 or 50+1 side-mount tool changers to further increase production efficiency. Standard features include rigid tapping, programmable coolant nozzle, Ethernet connectivity, Wi-Fi, USB interface, HaasConnect remote monitoring, and advanced tool management. Many used machines are equipped with additional options such as through-spindle coolant, Wireless Intuitive Probing System (WIPS), fourth-axis preparation, rotary tables, and chip conveyors for expanded machining capability.

The 2017 Haas VF3YT utilizes the advanced Haas Next Generation Control, providing faster processing speeds, intuitive programming, expanded memory, improved graphics, and enhanced diagnostics. The modern control significantly improves productivity while simplifying setup and machine operation.

In today’s used CNC machinery market, the 2017 Haas VF3YT remains an excellent investment for manufacturers seeking a versatile machining center with increased Y-axis capacity, modern control technology, and proven Haas reliability at a substantial savings over new equipment.
