Haas publishes a list price of US$176,995 for the Haas VF-6SS (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-6ss#price; the request is passed to Haas or an authorised dealer.
The VF-6SS spindle reaches 12,000 rpm and the VF-6/40 reaches 8,100 rpm. X and Y rapids are 1,200 ipm (30.5 m/min) on the VF-6SS against 600 ipm (15.2 m/min) on the VF-6/40, and the maximum cutting feedrate is 833 ipm (21.2 m/min) against 500 ipm (12.7 m/min). Spindle power and torque are equal: 30 hp (22.4 kW) and 90 ft-lbf (122 N·m) at 2,000 rpm.
2,000 lb (907 kg). The table is 64 × 28 in (1,626 × 711 mm) with five T-slots on 4.92 in (125 mm) centres. The VF-6/40 has a table of equal size rated at 4,000 lb (1,814 kg), so a part and fixture that are fine on that machine can be over the limit here.
The figures point the other way. Peak torque is 90 ft-lbf (122 N·m) at 2,000 rpm, axis thrust is 3,400 lbf (15,124 N) and table load is 2,000 lb (907 kg). For heavy cuts in this envelope, the VF-6/50 has a CT or BT 50 spindle with 340 ft-lbf (460 N·m) at 700 rpm and a 4,000 lb (1,814 kg) table load.
The shipping table has separate rows for a 50+1 SMTC configuration: 23,260 lb (10,550 kg) on a 195 × 102 × 135 in (496 × 260 × 343 cm) domestic pallet. The base machine with the 30+1 changer is listed at 22,300 lb (10,116 kg) on a 195 × 102 × 130 in (496 × 260 × 331 cm) pallet.
Up to 2.5 in (64 mm) in diameter with every pocket full and 5 in (127 mm) with the adjacent pockets empty. Haas also gives a 6 in (152 mm) figure for extra-large tools with adjacent pockets empty. Length is limited to 16 in (406 mm) and weight to 12 lb (5.4 kg).
