2005 Haas MDC-500 CNC Vertical Machining Center

The 2005 Haas MDC-500 CNC Vertical Machining Center is engineered for uninterrupted productivity with its dual-pallet design, allowing parts to be loaded and unloaded while the spindle continues cutting. With travels of 20 inch in X, 16 inch in Y, and 20 inch in Z, and a 10000 RPM 15 horsepower vector drive spindle, it provides solid performance for precision milling, drilling, and tapping. The 20-position carousel tool changer ensures quick tool swaps for multi-operation machining, while rigid tapping and programmable coolant enhance operational efficiency.

Compared to the standard Mini Mill, the MDC-500 elevates throughput with automatic pallet changes and improved setup times, making it ideal for lights-out production and small-part manufacturing. Its compact footprint, reliable Haas CNC control, and continuous cycle capabilities make it a favored choice for production shops requiring precision and uptime in a compact frame.
