Haas Automation publishes a list price of US$270,995 for the Haas VF-9/50 High-Capacity VMC (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-9-50#price; the request is passed to Haas Automation or an authorised dealer.
The VF-9/50 has a CT or BT 50 taper, a 2-speed gearbox, 340 ft-lbf (460 N·m) at 700 rpm and a 7,500 rpm maximum. The VF-9/40 has a CT40, BT40 or HSK-A63 taper, 90 ft-lbf (122 N·m) at 2,000 rpm and an 8,100 rpm maximum. Both are rated 30 hp (22.4 kW), and both machines share one set of travels and one table size.
5 in (127 mm) from spindle nose to table, rising to 35 in (889 mm) at the top of the 30 in (762 mm) Z stroke. A thin part bolted straight to the table needs a tool and holder long enough to cover that 5 in gap, or a riser under the part.
28,900 lb (13,109 kg). The domestic pallet is 235 × 120 × 131.5 in (597 × 305 × 334 cm) and the export crate is 235 × 123 × 133.5 in (597 × 313 × 339 cm). These are shipping sizes, so ask for the installation drawing before laying out floor space.
A three-phase supply of 220 VAC at 70 A or 440 VAC at 35 A, and compressed air delivering 4 scfm at 100 psi (113 L/min at 6.9 bar) with pressure held above 80 psi (5.5 bar). The air connection is a 3/8 in hose and coupler. Coolant capacity is 95 gal (360 L).
It will cut it, but the figures favour steel and iron. Top speed is 7,500 rpm and the feedrate limit is 500 ipm (12.7 m/min). For light alloys on this envelope the VF-9SS has a 12,000 rpm spindle and an 833 ipm (21.1 m/min) feedrate, though its table load is 2,000 lb (907 kg).
