The Haas CL-1 is a compact, high-precision CNC chucker lathe designed specifically for small-part production, prototyping, and secondary operations. Built with the same reliability and user-focused engineering that defines Haas Automation equipment, the Haas CL-1 delivers consistent accuracy and repeatability in a minimal footprint. This machine is ideal for shops that require efficient turning capability without dedicating large amounts of floor space. The Haas CL-1 is widely used in toolrooms, R&D departments, educational facilities, and production environments where small precision components are manufactured daily.
Equipped with the intuitive Haas CNC control, the Haas CL-1 provides full G-code programming capability along with conversational features that simplify setup and operation. Its high-speed spindle is optimized for small-diameter work, allowing operators to achieve clean finishes and tight tolerances on aluminum, steel, stainless steel, brass, and plastics. The gang-style tooling configuration reduces tool change time and enhances operational efficiency, especially in short-run production. With its compact design, low power consumption, and straightforward maintenance requirements, the Haas CL-1 is an excellent solution for manufacturers seeking dependable, space-saving CNC turning capability.

WHY BUY USED HAAS CL1
Purchasing a used Haas CL-1 provides a cost-effective way to add compact CNC turning capability to your shop without the investment required for new equipment. A used Haas CL-1 offers the same reliable control platform and precision machining performance while significantly reducing capital expenditure. Because the Haas CL-1 is widely supported with readily available parts and service, buyers can invest confidently knowing long-term maintenance is manageable. The compact footprint makes it ideal for expanding capacity in limited spaces, and its versatility supports prototyping, secondary operations, and light production. For manufacturers seeking dependable small-part turning with strong return on investment, a used Haas CL-1 is a practical and economical solution.
HOW MUCH DOES A USED HAAS CL1COST?
When you’re looking at a used Haas CL-1, the price varies widely based on age, condition, hours, included accessories, and market demand, but generally it’s significantly lower than buying new while still offering solid CNC performance. Most used CL-1 machines listed by dealers and resellers fall in a rough range of $30,000 to around $45,000 USD, with well-maintained examples from recent years often selling in the mid-$30,000s to low-$40,000s. Older units with higher spindle hours or cosmetic wear can be found near the lower end of that range, while machines that include useful extras like chucks, tooling, bar feeders, parts catchers, or recent maintenance service records may command prices toward the upper end. Because these are compact precision chucker lathes valued in small job shops and production environments alike, prices can fluctuate with local supply and demand, and factors like freight, inspection, and any required reconditioning should be considered when evaluating the total cost you’ll pay.
