How We Build The VF-1 Today - Haas Automation, Inc.
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 чер 2024
- Back in the late eighties we started building our first VMC, the VF-1. We didn't build them as efficiently as we do today, but they were good machines and laid the foundation for decades of milling machine development and improvement to come.
Today, our process is finely tuned and quite efficient for a machine that is still hand built to a great extent. Take a look at how we build the same VF that may be sitting on your shop floor not too long from now.

In 2005 I bought a brand new TM1 for my garage. Ran it for seven years almost daily. Not one single problem ever with it. A manufacturing company I worked with received a large aerospace contract and needed a CNC badly asap. I sold them my TM1 for what i paid for it after seven years. That machine is still making parts today.
How much you get for it?
You must have a good maintenance regimen.

You guys are blowing a great opportunity. Your test cut block should result in a Haas logo in aluminum that packs with the unit for delivery to the customer. I know I'd love it.
Thats exactly where I thought it was going!
An older VF2 was the first CNC I learned to run. Nice seeing how they are built.
Wow! This is testament to the staff and the quality control that Haas has, it’s obvious why they have such a good reputation. They care about what they do!! Looks like the staff are top notch professionals too.
This is my favorite video. You have to appreciate the skill, engineering and hard work that makes these amazing machines come together.
WoW, just WoW!! & the fact every single employee very obviously takes pride in what they do really makes this company a force to be reckoned with. Well done to all !
This video is the real proof that when man wants to do something, it can be achieved, personally, since I had contact with a CNC machine I was impressed, and I always had the doubt of how they were done, there is no doubt that this more that my work is my passion, it is what I like to do, thanks Haas for sharing this excellent video, greetings from Mexico
I have dealt with pecision machine tools since leaving scool which was 25 years ago. I love machine tools. They are a reflection of the brilliant minds behind the scenes who design and engineer them. I have worked installing, servicing, repairing and building them world wide and I just love them. Not worked with Haas but I see the same qualities, build and design techniques. I love precision.
I’m not a machinists, I don’t know the first thing about CNC machines, but I can appreciate the craftsmanship in anything built or assembled by hand.
I worked at Burgmaster in Los Angeles/Gardena from 1970-1980, Electronic Tech....I was the last guy before final Inspection....they folded around 1985...good equipment but financial problems....
Nice to see hand-built machines here, and the Dial Indicators!!
Great show I was a QC and we had one of those machine. They did great, with no rejects.
Its amazing seeing a machine come to life. All that work it took from the design on the computer, research, testing, prototyping, testing, prototyping, and final production. I love seeing hand tools in action!
That was a great video! I hope to own a Haas someday. I have been running a VM3 and a 96 VF3, for about a year now. Great machines.
That was a great "how it's made" video from Haas -- very informative and quite enjoyable to watch.
I love your machines,
Been running a VF4ss
For 8 years. Running only plastic parts.
The only issues we have had is the windows break easily,
4x4in 1/8 thick nylon flew off vac plate and shattered the window.
The auto door mechanism broke off, we had to weld it solid.
Z axis way over is like an aluminum can, easy to damage.
Saying these issues, they are very minor compared to all the issues we had with an Okuma mill.
For the window, we installed 1/2 thick polycarbonate inside in front of the window. When it gets damaged we just replace it. Much cheaper.
You guys make an incredible product!!👏👏👍👍
Is nice to see under the skin of a modern VMC. Enjoyed the alignment, testing and setup too.
Cheers for the upload
Such a beautiful display of precision.
It takes precision to make precision. Amazing!
That is a level of precision that blows my mind no matter how many times I see it.
What is cool is it is Haas CNC building Haas CNC. Their own mills are accurate enough to build their own mills. That is way cool. Thanks for showing this.
No they are not buying $200 lathes on amazon but when they started building their mills they were not using Haas mills. It is a progression and takes an effort to get to where they are today.
reality check , .......they have a lot of OKUMA machines in that factory .
theklrdude oo okay cool... but they are still using their own machines for production. It would be interesting to hear what the mix is from Haas and how it has changed over the years.
This is a fact, takes "mother machines" from Japan to get'er done. Ran into a bunch of Haas folks getting trained at Okuma several years back. Nice guys.
holy crap can you really get a shitty lathe that cheap? I always thought it was like at least 500-1k to get in the turning game. I mean... gotta start somewhere... any decent budget brands out there??
Great video. Nice to see Haas machines making parts for Haas machines.
I always wanted to see this. Thanks Haas.
Amazing! So fun to watch. Excellent vid. Really incredible amount of steps to make one of these mills.
Great to watch! Everyone is very precise/meticulous, not rushed. Really enjoyed the machine calibration. Efrain's got it going on!
Excellent video..love to see interapid indicators at work..very good indicators I own 3 different styles in 43 years as tool and die maker, everyone of them is as good as the day I bought them
Excellent video! Every second worth watching. Haas, with this kind of videos, you gain trust and reputation. I'm waiting for the next one ... :-)
Beautiful machines made by professional and dedicated people! Makes you proud to be an American.
Great editing, picture quality, and sound track! I love this format of video. Just manufacturing and assembly with no talking just chill tunes. Do more of these! I want to see how you make all of your machines!
lots of talented people in this video!
Well that was fascinating. This is what comes from looking at old milling machines.
Dr Ruben! Guy is clinical as is everything about this process, amazing!
Thanks Haas team good team work and video
I ran Haas cnc machines for many years, very good machines made in America, would like to have a VF1 in my garage, thanks for the video .
The alignment part was the best.....
Fun to watch this come together.
Ocean fishing in kayak
Wow, thats some seriously accurate machining to get tolerances like that. Great video, Thanks
Great video to watch ,especially the final set up of the unit -Thanks
Thats just incredible.
Such a great collaboration of Mechanical & Electrical Hardware & Software. Shining example of "Made in America", equally competitive Globally.
Great work.
I loves me some Haas mills. I've worked alongside a lot of "snobs" who turn their noses up at Haas - claiming that they're cheap and light duty, but the million dollar Deckel that I used to run couldn't rough out what my simple VF-3 can, and when it's time to repair said million dollar machines - good luck getting a repairman out on the same day. The VF-3 that I'm running now has been running close to 24 hours a day for the past 14 years and only once did we need to have a simple spindle repair.
Still can't beat an Okuma
Awesome video, just good ole fashioned parts fabrication then watching it all come together. No other way to crank out so much equipment! I'd love to see a similar video for a mid-sized lathe.
Amazing video. You guys do good work.
Man that was a great video -- you really get to see how they are built and where many of the major components are. Ephraim looked to be the kind of guy you'd want setting up your machine.
amazing... seeing the level of skill and precision every worker puts into these machines... I'm not the most knowledgeable person when it comes to these machine, but it boggles my mind; the incredible high precision these are machined, constructed and calibrated...
I have a few business ideas, and Will start with a small mill but because of these videos and Mark being a bae, I'll be looking to invest in a Vf2 in the near future.
I absolutely look forward to becoming a Haas technician when I graduate from NTMA .. Machinest college in Santa Fe springs CA,. I'm about to start MOD 5 in a few days.. so six more weeks til graduation and I'll be a trained Machinest lvl (1)) but still a novice / apprentice..
But I have the desire to become a technician for Haas and do service calls.. or maybe after seeing this video becoming an assembly technician at the Haas factory.
This stuff looks cool...
Too cool! Go Haas!!
Great video. This kind of videos gives you what quality is
A CNC machine used to make a CNC machine, love it!
I'll put my hands up, it took me a second to get the red tube at the end. Nicely done.
What a fantastic company.
that was Haas VF2 model to be taken away after completion at the end of the video. However I enjoyed every bit of it and liked the clean and precise work ethic of Haas industry.
We have 21 Haas machines. 16 lathes and 5 mills. The nice thing about having so many of one brand is spare parts, training and maintenance. And Haas is very high quality. Some of the idiots we hire to run them have had spectacular wrecks on some of them. And we always seem to recover. Good solid equipment.
so you hire idiots, please hire me too
@@davemwangi05 they're everywhere!!!! and Raid don't kill them either!!
We have all Haas machines. They’re just rock solid and very well thought out. As a maintenance tech dealing with operators who crash them on a weekly basis, you appreciate little things like covers that come off easily, waycovers that are easily replaceable, turrets that can be reset after a wreck...and back up and in business in no time. And the software is so intuitive and user friendly. Once a year we have a Haas service tech come in and tune them up properly. When he leaves we know we’re golden
That was fun to watch! :-)
That was fascinating and awesome! I can't wait to own a HAAS machine!
how much cash?
they multiply, went from zero to 6 in 5 years. St15 DY with a bar feeder delivered today.
What a beautiful video. I just love it
GOOOOOOOSH I have been wanting this for the longest....watching all the old manufacturing vidoes and never one of a machine tool being built
Same here : )
Hello, i have recognised the Fastems FPC pallet handler in the video , i'm happy that we helping in the process to build the VF-1 , by the way i'm a Fastems technician
Best industrial promo music ever!
fantastic video. really enjoyed it.
This is a good video to watch. I run a Haas vf-2, vf-3, vf-9, hs-1, and ec1600. At the place I work.
Great video guys!
I took a machine tool course in college years ago and the Instructor told us " Machine tools are the only machines that can reproduce themselves" I saw it then and this is the ongoing proof. 1000 years from now these things may rule.
I operate VF-1 on the regular and many other haas cnc etc.. its very intriguing to see how it’s all made and put together.
I don't even work in the industry and I watched the entire video.........good job!!
A lot of you have been asking about the music used in this video. The song is called Don't Look, by Silent Partner - Haas Automation
Thank you for sharing the video. It's fascinating to see how much detail work goes in to building these machines.
I would only add that it would be 10x more interesting to hear the actual sounds of the machines and the factory floor. This link is one of my all-time favorites for that reason. Hope you enjoy it too. ua-cam.com/video/Xuc8sVERy6Q/v-deo.html
Are we going to get a tour of your foundry? 🤔
Thank you!!!
Thanks for the point out 👍.
Nice fastems pallet system for the spindle heads.
Incredible machines.
Machinists machine with machines to make parts of machines that can machine machine parts
Yo Dawg I heard you like machines...
that is until "machines" machine with machines that make the machines that make the machines that make the machines that . . . and so on
Say "machines" again sweetheart. Say it slow the way you know we like it.
slow and steady like . . .
a "machine"
yeah baby, yeah !
Grandfather machine lol
Beautiful !!!!! I love this. I just ordered one.
Wait a sec... is this how you impulse buy?!
Whats really cool is someone designed and built the machines to make all the parts
Лучше бы я этого не видел...ЭТО ПРЕКРАСНО!!!
Awesome video!
No doubt about Haas quality !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I still have a '92 VF2 and its still deadly accurate
So much awesome machine porn in one video! I LOVE the alignment process details that included the care and effort needed to show the dial indicators without glare from the shop lights! (Its the little details)
Ok, that was a pretty cool video 😎. Usually lean towards the manual side of machining but that was pretty interesting. Gonna have to teach myself g code now lol. Thanks for the video 👍😁👍.
Ruben does a great job
Wow beautifull !!!
OK, you convinced me, I'll take one. With complete set of tooling.
Please deliver by Friday.
Oh, DO NOT call my bank to see if I can afford it as they are very busy this time of year.
I've ran Moris, OKK, Toyota etc. This year got to start working with Haas VF5 and VF2 and nothing in my mind is more precise, and user friendly. Watching them put the care they do into making their machines is amazing.
Brilliant
Great video!
After rewatching this great video I’ve now subscribed,and will be watching them all as time allows.
As regards the music,one of my other great passions , I know the beginning is a mix of the Doors ,but by whom?
super cool, I like Haas even more now, somebody smart is in charge of that co. And somebody who is American and proud!
Wow. Amazing!
Que trabalho mais bonito é lindo de se ver, eu já trabalhei com uma máquina dessas EC 1600 muito top
such a fine video I feel I i have the gist of how to build one of these machines on my own. I will watch the video a few more times and study up on it. I feel confident i can build my own VH-1 and save on the overall cost of owning one.
So many questions! I can see why these are so accurate.
I'm hoping to get one soon too!
Espetacular y muy bueno!!!
Not a machinist, but I found this video strangely satisfying. Haas 🇨🇭
if you think this is satisfying, watch Pornhub!
Amazing!!!
What an amazing machine! I've been around machinist for most of my 60 years of life...It's amazing to see how far it's developed...I live near Boeing Vertol when they got their 5 Axis machine, they were so proud! :)...That thing is a dinosaur now...:)...Keep up the great work...I"m a carpenter by trade...I could build you a nice box for it but...Those things are like quantum computers to me! :)
The box is important. Imgine a machine get damaged during the transport ?
Sir what is the material used for casting the base of the cnc and other body parts ? Is it gray cast iron or ductile cast iron or other ?
So lovely and help full video thanku
very precise work, amazing!
has to be a long friggen day running the test indicator along rails for 8 hrs. god bless his patience.
"some guys get all the good jobs"
@@highstreetkillers4377 do you think they are hand scraping it?
@@Juxtaposed1Nmotion Highly doubt it
I think the jobs looked interesting. Compared to most manufacturing jobs, anyway.
I'd imagine some if not most assembly-related tasks are rotated between several people during a shift.
The corporate secret to this video is the unseen Okumas doing the critical machining for these Haas.
There are some great opportunities for process improvements through newer assembly tooling. Have you looked at a torque tracking system? You could reduce the time it takes to torque bolts and have that information tracked so that any future issues or service calls could be tracked back to the assembly torques for future design improvements.
I like Rubens work.
