2019 Haas ST-15 CNC Lathe

The 2019 Haas ST-15 is a compact yet capable CNC turning center designed for precision machining of small- to medium-diameter parts. It features a 12-inch maximum turning diameter, 16-inch turning length, and 2.5-inch bar capacity. With 7.88 inches of X-axis travel and 16 inches of Z-axis travel, it supports a wide variety of turning operations. Rapid traverse speeds reach 1,200 inches per minute on both axes, ensuring minimal idle time and quick positioning. The machine’s rigid one-piece base and 7,900-pound frame provide the structural integrity necessary for high-accuracy part production.

Compared to the smaller Haas ST-10, the ST-15 provides more spindle clearance, greater swing capacity at 16.5 inches over bed, and the added benefit of larger bar capacity. These upgrades enable the machining of larger or heavier parts while retaining the same compact footprint, making the ST-15 ideal for shops looking to grow beyond entry-level turning without sacrificing space or precision.
