Frequently Asked Questions: Haas VM-14/50

How much does the Haas VM-14/50 cost?

Haas Automation publishes a list price of US$506,995 for the Haas VM-14/50 (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-vm-14-50#price; the request is passed to Haas Automation or an authorised dealer.

Who should pick the VM-14/50 over the VM-14?

Shops whose cuts need torque. The VM-14/50 is rated 60 hp (44.7 kW) and 350 ft-lbf (475 N·m) at 900 rpm with CT or BT 50 tooling. The VM-14 is rated 30 hp (22.4 kW) and 90 ft-lbf (122 N·m) at 2,000 rpm, with a 12,000 rpm top speed. Travels, table and the 36,300 lb (16,466 kg) listed weight are the same, so the decision rests on cutter size and material.

What does the VM-14/50 add over the VM-12/50?

Y travel: 40 in (1,016 mm) on the VM-14/50 against 32 in (813 mm) on the VM-12/50. X travel of 150 in (3,810 mm), Z travel of 30 in (762 mm), the 150 × 28 in (3,810 × 711 mm) table and the 60 hp (44.7 kW) spindle rating are the same on both.

What does the 2-speed gearbox do on the VM-14/50?

Haas lists the spindle drive as a 2-speed gearbox. It gives the spindle a low range for torque, 350 ft-lbf (475 N·m) at 900 rpm, and a high range that reaches 10,000 rpm. A direct-drive spindle of the same motor size would have to choose between the two.

What is the spindle-to-table clearance on the VM-14/50?

Spindle nose to table is 4 in (102 mm) at the bottom of Z and 34 in (864 mm) at the top, over 30 in (762 mm) of Z travel. The tool changer accepts tools up to 16 in (406 mm) long, so check the longest tool plus the tallest part and fixture against the 34 in figure.

How is the VM-14/50 shipped?

Haas lists a domestic pallet of 343 × 110 × 130 in (871 × 280 × 331 cm), an export crate of 343 × 110 × 134.5 in (871 × 280 × 342 cm) and a weight of 36,300 lb (16,466 kg). Those figures are for transport and rigging. They do not describe the floor area the installed machine needs.
