Drilling, tapping and milling too

The new DT-1 from Haas Automation is a compact, high speed drill and tap machine with full milling capabilities.

The machine features a generous 508mm x 406mm x 394mm work cube and 660mm by 381mm T-slot table, while maintaining a small footprint. A BT-30 taper spindle spins to 15,000rpm, and allows tapping at speeds to 5,000rpm. The spindle is coupled directly to the motor for smooth, quiet operation and good thermal stability and a 5hp vector drive system provides 46ft/lb (peak) of cutting torque for milling and boring operations. The DT-1 is equipped with a high speed, 20-pocket, servo driven tool changer that swaps tools in 0.8 seconds. High speed 61m/minute rapids combine with 1G acceleration rates to shorten cycle times and reduce non-cutting time. The maximum cutting feedrate is 30.5m/minute.
For efficient chip removal, the DT-1 features a steeply sloped internal sheetmetal construction and optional twin chip augers transport chips to exit at the rear of the machine. A 45 gallon flood coolant system is standard, with options for a programmable coolant nozzle and high pressure through spindle coolant systems. Haas

Editor's comment: Weather with you

My work office feels unusually cold. As I type this, the BBC weather says it’s 10˚C outside. Hmm, is that typical for the end of April? Anyway, our landlord has deemed that with Spring now in the air, it’s time to turn off the heating and save money. This presents a challenge typing when I can’t feel my fingers.
