The Haas DS-30 series dual-spindle turning center can turn both ends of a part in a single setup to minimize part handling, increase throughput and reduce work in process. The opposed spindles offer fully synchronized turning for clean part-off, and enable on-the-fly part pass-off to reduce cycle times. The turning center is available in standard and Super Speed configurations.
The standard configuration has a maximum cutting capacity of 21" × 26", and is equipped with a 12-station BOT turret. The A2-6 main spindle features an 8.3" hydraulic chuck, and is powered by a 30-hp vector drive system that provides 275 foot-pounds of
torque. The A2-5 secondary spindle also has an 8.3" hydraulic chuck, and is powered by a 20-hp vector drive system that provides 150 foot-pounds of torque. Both spindles turn
to 4,000 rpm, and have a 2.0" bar capacity.

The Super Speed configuration has a maximum cutting capacity of 16" × 26", and is equipped with a 24-station hybrid BOT/VDI turret. The A2-6 main spindle features an 8.3" hydraulic chuck, and is powered by a 30-hp vector drive system that provides 250 foot-pounds of torque. The A2-5 secondary spindle also has an 8.3" hydraulic chuck, and is powered by a 20-hp vector drive system that provides 150 foot-pounds of torque. Both spindles turn to 4,800 rpm, and have a 2.0" bar capacity.
Both machines provide a maximum swing of 31.75" over the front apron, with a 20.75" swing over the cross slide. Standard equipment includes rigid tapping, spindle orientation, a 15" color LCD monitor and a USB port. High-productivity options include a belt-type chip conveyor, automatic tool probe, automatic parts catcher, high-pressure coolant systems and more.
