Frequently Asked Questions: Haas ST-55SY

How much does the Haas ST-55SY cost?

Haas Automation publishes a list price of US$396,995 for the Haas ST-55SY (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-st-55sy#price; the request is passed to Haas Automation or an authorised dealer.

What milling capability does the ST-55SY have?

Live tools on BMT75 tooling run to 4,000 rpm, with ± 3 in (± 76 mm) of Y travel and 2,300 lbf (10,231 N) of Y thrust. The C axis is listed for interpolated motion and positioning, at 0.01° and up to 49 rpm, with a 5 hp (3.7 kW) maximum rating. The C-axis brake holds 450 ft-lbf (610 N·m).

What spindle does the ST-55SY have?

A 55 hp (41 kW) spindle with a 2-speed gearbox, 4,250 ft-lbf (5,762 N·m) at 30 rpm and a 1,000 rpm maximum. The bore is 12.5 in (318 mm) and the nose is A1-20, front and rear. Chuck size and bar capacity are not in the table, so check the through-hole of whatever workholding is quoted.

How does the ST-55SY compare with the ST-40LY?

The Y-axis figures are the same on both: ± 3 in (± 76 mm) of travel, 472 ipm (12 m/min) X and Y rapids, 4,000 rpm live tools and a 27.5 in (699 mm) turning diameter. The ST-40LY has a 4.62 in (117.3 mm) bore, 40 hp (29.8 kW), 2,400 rpm and 80 in (2,032 mm) of Z. The ST-55SY has a 12.5 in (318 mm) bore, 55 hp (41 kW), 1,000 rpm and 44 in (1,118 mm) of Z.

How fast are the axes on the ST-55SY?

X and Y rapid at 472 ipm (12 m/min); the Z rapid is 710 ipm. Maximum thrust is 5,500 lbf (24,465 N) on X, 2,300 lbf (10,231 N) on Y and 9,000 lbf (40,034 N) on Z. Travels are 20 in (508 mm) in X, ± 3 in (± 76 mm) in Y and 44 in (1,118 mm) in Z.

What services does the ST-55SY need?

Electrical supply is 220 VAC three-phase at 105 A or 440 VAC three-phase at 53 A. Air is 4 scfm at 100 psi (113 L/min at 6.9 bar), with 80 psi (5.5 bar) as the minimum pressure and a 3/8 in hose and coupler. Coolant capacity is 95 gal (360 L).
