X travel and table length. The VR-14 has 150 in (3,810 mm) of X and a 150 × 28 in (3,810 × 711 mm) table; the VR-11 has 120 in (3,048 mm) and 120 × 28 in (3,048 × 711 mm). The VR-11 and VR-14 list the same Y and Z travel, the same 20,000 rpm HSK-A63 spindle, the same B and C ranges, a 4,000 lb (1,814 kg) table load and a 50+1 tool changer.
It is an integral spindle/motor that runs to 20,000 rpm, rated 29 hp (21.6 kW) with 20 ft-lbf (27 N·m) of torque at 7,500 rpm. Bearings are grease packed and the spindle is liquid cooled. High speed with low torque suits aluminium, plastics, composites and finishing passes in harder materials with small cutters. Large-diameter roughing tools in steel need torque this spindle does not have.
B travels from +120° to -120° at up to 112°/sec. C travels from +245° to -245° at up to 208°/sec, so it must unwind on paths that circle a part. B has 470 ft-lbf (639 N·m) of drive torque and a 454 ft-lbf (616 N·m) brake. C has 285 ft-lbf (386 N·m) of drive torque and a 442 ft-lbf (600 N·m) brake, which means C holds more when clamped than it can drive while moving.
The VR-9 is shorter and wider: 84 in (2,134 mm) of X over an 84 × 36 in (2,134 × 914 mm) table, with a 500 ipm (12.7 m/min) cutting feedrate and 600 ipm (15.2 m/min) rapids. The VR-11 has 120 in (3,048 mm) of X over a 120 × 28 in (3,048 × 711 mm) table, and its X axis is limited to 360 ipm (9.1 m/min) for both cutting and rapid moves.
The side-mount tool changer holds 50+1 tools in HSK-A63. With every pocket filled the maximum tool diameter is 2.5 in (64 mm); Haas lists 5 in (127 mm) when the adjacent pockets are empty. Maximum length is 12 in (305 mm) and maximum weight 12 lb (5.4 kg). Tool-to-tool time is 2.8 s and chip-to-chip 3.6 s.
Power is 220 VAC three-phase at 70 A or 440 VAC three-phase at 35 A. Air consumption is 4 scfm at 100 psi (113 L/min at 6.9 bar) with an 80 psi (5.5 bar) minimum, through a 3/8 in hose and coupler. The coolant tank holds 95 gal (360 L). As shipped the machine weighs 33,400 lb (15,150 kg) on a 288 × 121 × 142 in (732 × 307 × 361 cm) domestic pallet, or in a 288 × 123 × 144 in (732 × 312 × 366 cm) export crate, so check door openings and rigging first.
