Haas Automation's multiple operation ST-10Y Y-axis CNC lathe offers less handling greater accuracy benefits

The Haas ST-10Y is a small-footprint Y-axis turning centre that provides 102 mm of Y-axis travel (±50.8 mm from the centreline) for off-centre milling, drilling, and tapping, and comes standard with high torque live tooling and a servo-driven C axis for versatile 4-axis capability.

The ST-10Y provides a maximum cutting capacity of 229 by 356 mm, with a swing of 413 mm over the cross slide. It is equipped with a 6.5 inch hydraulic 3-jaw chuck and a 12-station VDI turret. The ST-10Y's A2-5 spindle nose has a 59 mm spindle bore and a bar capacity of 44 mm. The machine's 15 hp vector dual-drive spindle turns to 6,000 rpm, and provides 75 ft-lb of torque. On-the-fly wye-delta switching yields a wide constant-horsepower band for constant surface feed cuts, and rapids are 24 m/min on the X-axis, 30.5 m/min on the Z-axis, and 12.7 m/min on the Y-axis to reduce cycle times. Standard equipment on the ST-10Y includes high torque live tooling with C axis, rigid tapping, spindle orientation, a 15 inch colour LCD monitor, and a USB port. High productivity options available include a belt-type chip conveyor, a manual tailstock with hydraulic quill, an automatic tool probe, an automatic parts catcher and high pressure coolant systems.
