Frequently Asked Questions: Haas DC-2 Drill Center

How much does the Haas DC-2 Drill Center cost?

Haas Automation publishes a list price of US$90,995 for the Haas DC-2 Drill Center (verified 2026-10-02). Options, tooling, freight and installation are extra, so a dealer quote will differ. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/haas-dc-2-drill-center#price; the request is passed to Haas Automation or an authorised dealer.

How is the DC-2 different from the DC-1?

Size. The DC-2 Drill Center has 39.4 in (1,000 mm) of X and 19.7 in (500 mm) of Y, a 43.3 × 19.7 in (1,100 × 500 mm) table and a 772 lb (350 kg) table load. The DC-1 has 23.6 in (600 mm) of X, 17.7 in (450 mm) of Y, a 27.6 × 16.5 in (700 × 420 mm) table and 550 lb (250 kg). Z travel, the BT30 spindle and the 21-tool capacity are the same on both.

Should I choose the DC-2 or the DC-2-40?

It depends on the tools the work needs. The DC-2 Drill Center has a BT30 spindle with 14 ft-lbf (19 N·m) at 2,500 rpm, 21 tools and 13 in (330 mm) of Z. The DC-2-40 has a CT40 spindle with 52 ft-lbf (70.5 N·m) at 3,000 rpm, 20 tools and 19.7 in (500 mm) of Z. X and Y travel, the table and the 772 lb (350 kg) table load are the same.

How is the DC-2 table laid out?

It measures 43.3 × 19.7 in (1,100 × 500 mm) and has five T-slots, each 0.63 in (16 mm) wide, spaced 3.94 in (100 mm) apart. The spindle reaches 39.4 in (1,000 mm) of its length and the full 19.7 in (500 mm) of its width. Rated load is 772 lb (350 kg).

What are the tool limits on the DC-2?

The turret holds 21 BT30 tools. Each can be up to 7.9 in (200 mm) long and 4.4 lb (2 kg). Diameter is limited to 2.4 in (60 mm) when the neighbouring pockets are occupied, or 3.1 in (80 mm) when they are empty. Tapping speed is listed up to 5,000 rpm.

What does the DC-2 need for installation?

A three-phase supply of 220 VAC at 40 A or 440 VAC at 20 A, and compressed air at 4 scfm and 100 psi (113 L/min at 6.9 bar) that does not drop below 80 psi (5.5 bar). The shipping pallet is 123.8 × 90 × 101 in (314 × 229 × 257 cm) and the shipping weight is 8,860 lb (4,019 kg).
