Frequently Asked Questions: Haas VF-14/40

How much does the Haas VF-14/40 cost?

Haas Automation publishes a list price of US$433,995 for the Haas VF-14/40 (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-vf-14-40#price; the request is passed to Haas Automation or an authorised dealer.

How does the VF-14/40 compare with the VF-12/40?

Y travel is the difference: 40 in (1,016 mm) on the VF-14/40, 32 in (813 mm) on the VF-12/40. X and Z travel, the 150 × 28 in (3,810 × 711 mm) table, the 4,000 lb (1,814 kg) table load and the 8,100 rpm, 30 hp (22.4 kW) spindle are the same in Haas's figures. Haas also gives both the same shipping weight, 36,300 lb (16,466 kg).

Can the VF-14/40 take a part 40 in wide?

The Y axis travels 40 in (1,016 mm), so the spindle can cover a part that wide. The table is 28 in (711 mm) deep, so such a part overhangs the table or needs a sub-plate, and the 5 T-slots sit on 4.92 in (125 mm) centers within that depth. Count the sub-plate in the 4,000 lb (1,814 kg) load.

When does the VF-14/50 make more sense than the VF-14/40?

When the work is steel or iron and the cutters are large. The VF-14/50 has a CT or BT 50 spindle with 340 ft-lbf (460 N·m) at 700 rpm and a 7,500 rpm top speed. The VF-14/40 has 90 ft-lbf (122 N·m) at 2,000 rpm and reaches 8,100 rpm. Travels, table size and the 4,000 lb (1,814 kg) table load do not change between them, and both are rated 30 hp (22.4 kW).

What torque does the VF-14/40 have at low speed?

The base inline direct-drive spindle peaks at 90 ft-lbf (122 N·m) at 2,000 rpm. A gearbox is listed as an option, with 250 ft-lbf (339 N·m) at 450 rpm. Without it, large-diameter cutters in steel have to be run with light cuts.

What power and air does the VF-14/40 need?

Electrical supply is three-phase, either 220 VAC at 70 A or 440 VAC at 35 A. Air is 4 scfm at 100 psi (113 L/min at 6.9 bar), and supply pressure must not fall below 80 psi (5.5 bar). The air hose and coupler are 3/8 in. Coolant capacity is 95 gal (360 L).
