Haas Automation GM-2-5AX in Action & Demo

Frequently Asked Questions: Haas GM-2-5AX

How much does the Haas GM-2-5AX cost?

Haas Automation publishes a list price of US$399,995 for the Haas GM-2-5AX (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-gm-2-5ax#price; the request is passed to Haas Automation or an authorised dealer.

What is the working envelope of the GM-2-5AX?

Travels are 145 in (3,683 mm) in X, 87.5 in (2,223 mm) in Y and 39.3 in (998 mm) in Z. The table measures 144 × 72 in (3,658 × 1,829 mm) with 75 in (1,905 mm) between the columns. Spindle nose to table is listed from 5 in (127 mm) to 37 in (940 mm), and the table is rated for 6,000 lb (2,722 kg).

Which spindle taper does the GM-2-5AX use?

HSK. The table lists HSK-63F / HSK-A63 on an integral, liquid-cooled spindle with grease-packed bearings: 20,000 rpm, 16 hp (12 kW) and 11.3 ft-lbf (15.3 N·m) at 7,500 rpm. Confirm with Haas which of the two HSK forms your machine will be built with before buying holders.

How does the GM-2-5AX compare with the GM-1-5AX?

The GM-1-5AX is the smaller machine: 121 × 61 × 24 in (3,073 × 1,549 × 610 mm) of travel, a 123 × 53 in (3,124 × 1,346 mm) table and a BT30 spindle at 24,000 rpm. The GM-2-5AX has more travel on every axis, an HSK spindle at 20,000 rpm and lower X feedrates, 472 ipm (12 m/min) against the 800 ipm (20.3 m/min) of the GM-1-5AX. Both tables are rated for 6,000 lb (2,722 kg).

What 5-axis programming features does Haas list for it?

Three are named on Haas's page for this model: G268 Feature Coordinate System, G253 Orient Spindle Normal to Feature Coordinate System, and Vector Jogging. The first two, as their names say, define a coordinate system on a feature and orient the spindle normal to it. The listing does not say whether any of them is an extra-cost option, so ask when quoting.

What should I plan for delivery and installation?

The machine ships at 22,040 lb (10,000 kg). The domestic pallet is 226 × 143 × 137 in (574 × 363 × 348 cm) and the export crate 226 × 153 × 143 in (574 × 389 × 363 cm), with a separate sheet-metal crate of 89 × 57 × 50 in (226 × 145 × 126 cm) at 1,400 lb. These are shipping sizes, not the installed size. Power is 220 VAC three-phase at 40 A or 440 VAC at 20 A, and air use is 4 scfm at 100 psi (113 L/min at 6.9 bar).
