Haas Automation VF-9SS in Action & Demo

Frequently Asked Questions: Haas VF-9SS

How much does the Haas VF-9SS cost?

Haas Automation publishes a list price of US$251,995 for the Haas VF-9SS (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-9ss#price; the request is passed to Haas Automation or an authorised dealer.

How fast is the tool change on the VF-9SS?

Haas lists 1.83 s tool-to-tool and 3.28 s chip-to-chip. The changer is a side-mount type with 30+1 pockets. Tools may be up to 2.5 in (64 mm) across with a full magazine, 16 in (406 mm) long and 12 lb (5.4 kg).

What are the rapid and feed rates of the VF-9SS?

Rapids are 1,200 ipm (30.4 m/min) in X and Y and 945 ipm (24 m/min) in Z. The maximum cutting feedrate is 833 ipm (21.1 m/min). The VF-9/40, which shares the envelope, rapids at 600 ipm (15.2 m/min) and feeds at up to 500 ipm (12.7 m/min).

Can the VF-9SS table hold as much as the VF-9/40?

No. The VF-9SS is rated for 2,000 lb (907 kg) and the VF-9/40 for 4,000 lb (1,814 kg), although both tables measure 84 × 36 in (2,134 × 914 mm). A heavy fixture plate that covers the table can take up much of the 2,000 lb allowance before a part is loaded.

Is there a smaller SS machine with 84 in of X travel?

Yes: the VF-7SS has 84 in (2,134 mm) of X, 32 in (813 mm) of Y and an 84 × 28 in (2,134 × 711 mm) table, with a 12,000 rpm spindle and a 2,000 lb (907 kg) table load. The VF-9SS extends Y to 40 in (1,016 mm) and the table depth to 36 in (914 mm).

What does the VF-9SS weigh?

The shipping table gives 28,300 lb (12,837 kg) for the machine with the EC option and for the machine with the 50+1 SMTC. It does not list the base machine separately, so get the weight of the exact configuration from the supplier before booking a rigger.
