Haas Automation ST-55Y in Action & Demo

Frequently Asked Questions: Haas ST-55Y

How much does the Haas ST-55Y cost?

Haas Automation publishes a list price of US$419,995 for the Haas ST-55Y (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-55y#price; the request is passed to Haas Automation or an authorised dealer.

How does the ST-55Y differ from the ST-40LY?

Only in the spindle. Travels, rapids and live-tool speed are the same. The ST-40LY has an A2-8 nose, a 4.62 in (117.3 mm) bore, 40 hp (29.8 kW), 1,400 ft-lbf (1,898 N·m) at 150 rpm and a 2,400 rpm top speed. The ST-55Y has an A1-20 nose front and rear, a 12.5 in (318 mm) bore, 55 hp (41 kW), 4,250 ft-lbf (5,762 N·m) at 30 rpm and a 1,000 rpm top speed.

How long a part can the ST-55Y turn?

Maximum turning length is 80 in (2,032 mm), equal to the Z travel, at up to 27.5 in (699 mm) in diameter. The MT6 tailstock has 84.5 in (2,146 mm) of travel and 200 lbf (890 N) to 3,000 lbf (13,345 N) of thrust. Longer stock can extend back through the 12.5 in (318 mm) spindle bore.

What are the C-axis and Y-axis figures on the ST-55Y?

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

How fast does the ST-55Y move?

X and Y rapid at 472 ipm (12 m/min) and Z at 320 ipm (8.1 m/min). 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. Live tools run to 4,000 rpm and the main spindle to 1,000 rpm.

What does the ST-55Y need for power, air and coolant?

Power is 220 VAC three-phase at 105 A or 440 VAC three-phase at 53 A. Air consumption is 4 scfm at 100 psi (113 L/min at 6.9 bar), and supply pressure must be at least 80 psi (5.5 bar). The coolant tank holds 95 gal (360 L). Machine weight and shipping dimensions are not in the table.
