Frequently Asked Questions: Haas HDC-3-5AX

How much does the Haas HDC-3-5AX cost?

Haas Automation publishes a list price of US$1,102,995 for the Haas HDC-3-5AX (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-hdc-3-5ax#price; the request is passed to Haas Automation or an authorised dealer.

How powerful is the HDC-3-5AX spindle?

60 hp (44.7 kW), with 110 ft-lbf (149 N·m) of torque at 3,000 rpm and a maximum of 6,000 rpm. It is an integral spindle and motor with an HSK-A100 taper, liquid cooling and grease-packed bearings. For comparison, the VS-3-5AX is listed at 29 hp (21.6 kW) and 20,000 rpm with HSK-A63.

What is the difference between the HDC-3-5AX and the VS-3-5AX?

Both list 150 in (3,810 mm) of X travel and a 153 × 49 in (3,886 × 1,245 mm) table rated for 10,000 lb (4,536 kg). The HDC-3-5AX has 106 in (2,692 mm) of Y and 43 in (1,092 mm) of Z with a 60 hp (44.7 kW), 6,000 rpm HSK-A100 spindle and 50+1 tools. The VS-3-5AX has 50 in (1,270 mm) of Y and Z, a 20,000 rpm HSK-A63 spindle and 70+1 tools.

How strong are the rotary axes?

B has 944 ft-lbf (1,279 N·m) of drive torque and a 1,239 ft-lbf (1,680 N·m) brake, through a 59:1 gear ratio, and moves at up to 68°/sec over ±120°. C has 900 ft-lbf (1,220 N·m) of torque, a 2,000 ft-lbf (2,712 N·m) brake and a 105.83:1 gear ratio, and moves at up to 170°/sec.

What size tools can the HDC-3-5AX change automatically?

The side-mount changer holds 50+1 tools on the HSK-A100 taper. Limits are 4 in (102 mm) in diameter with all pockets full, 16 in (406 mm) in length and 30 lb (13.6 kg) in weight. Haas lists 10 in (254 mm) as the maximum diameter when the neighbouring pockets are left empty.

How is the HDC-3-5AX shipped?

In sections. Haas's shipping table lists a column assembly at 7,260 lb (3,293 kg) on a 150 × 102 × 87 in (381 × 259 × 221 cm) pallet, a table assembly at 20,860 lb (9,462 kg) on a 376 × 91 × 66 in (955 × 231 × 168 cm) pallet, a bridge assembly at 23,280 lb (10,560 kg), and two sheet-metal crates of 2,280 lb (1,034 kg) and 2,340 lb (1,061 kg). These are shipping figures, not the installed size.
