Haas Automation VF-5/50XT in Action & Demo

Frequently Asked Questions: Haas VF-5/50XT

How much does the Haas VF-5/50XT cost?

Haas Automation publishes a list price of US$179,995 for the Haas VF-5/50XT (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-5-50xt#price; the request is passed to Haas Automation or an authorised dealer.

What is the VF-5/50XT built for?

Long parts that need heavy cuts. It has 60 in (1,524 mm) of X travel, a 62 × 23 in (1,575 × 584 mm) table and a 50-taper spindle with 340 ft-lbf (460 N·m) at 700 rpm through a two-speed gearbox. Thrust is 3,400 lbf (15,124 N) on X, 4,100 lbf (18,238 N) on Y and 5,600 lbf (24,910 N) on Z.

How does the VF-5/50XT compare with the VF-5/50?

The spindle is the same in speed and torque: 7,500 rpm and 340 ft-lbf (460 N·m) at 700 rpm, with 30+1 tools. The VF-5/50 has 50 in (1,270 mm) of X and a 54 × 24 in (1,372 × 610 mm) table and is listed at 14,920 lb. The VF-5/50XT has 60 in (1,524 mm) of X and a 62 × 23 in (1,575 × 584 mm) table and ships at 16,250 lb (7,371 kg). Table load is 4,000 lb (1,814 kg) on both.

VF-5/50XT or VF-5/40XT for a mixed workload?

The VF-5/40XT turns faster, 8,100 rpm, and makes 90 ft-lbf (122 N·m) at 2,000 rpm with a 20-tool carousel. The VF-5/50XT makes 340 ft-lbf (460 N·m) at 700 rpm and carries 30+1 tools up to 30 lb (13.6 kg), but stops at 7,500 rpm and takes 6.3 s chip-to-chip. A workload of mostly aluminium and small cutters points to the VF-5/40XT; large cutters in steel point to the VF-5/50XT.

How long and heavy can tools be on the VF-5/50XT?

Up to 16 in (406 mm) long and 30 lb (13.6 kg). Diameter is limited to 4 in (102 mm) when the adjacent pockets hold tools and 7 in (178 mm) when they are empty. Keep in mind the 7.9 in (201 mm) minimum between spindle nose and table when choosing short holders.

What does the VF-5/50XT weigh for shipping?

16,250 lb (7,371 kg), on a 168 × 102 × 125 in (427 × 260 × 318 cm) domestic pallet or in a 168 × 102 × 130 in (427 × 260 × 331 cm) export crate. Those are shipping figures from Haas, not the installed floor space.
