The Haas TM-2P is a 40-taper CNC toolroom mill known for the simplicity and dependability that made the Haas TM series a staple in job shops, tool rooms, and short-run production environments. This 2014 unit offers generous travels of 40 x 16 x 16 inch (X/Y/Z), a work envelope large enough to handle plates, fixtures, and mid-size parts that smaller toolroom machines cannot. The 40-taper spindle turns up to 6,000 RPM, backed by a 7.5 HP drive and 33 ft-lb of torque for confident cutting in aluminum and steel alike. Rapids of 400 in/min keep cycle times tight, while the intuitive Haas control makes it easy for machinists to move from manual work to full CNC programming. A carousel automatic tool changer, a 47.75 x 11.75 inch table, and rigid three-axis construction round out a machine ready for tooling, prototyping, and production.
Compared to the earlier Haas TM-2, the TM-2P steps up to the programmable specification, adding rigid tapping, spindle orientation, faster 400 in/min rapids, and higher-performance motion control, along with automatic tool changer capability the base TM-2 does not offer. Where the standard TM-2 was built mainly as a manual-to-CNC bridge, the TM-2P is engineered to run true CNC programs with greater repeatability and expanded capability. Buyers also gain a clear step up over the smaller TM-1P, whose 30 x 12 inch travels limit part size, while the TM-2P opens the door to larger work in a single setup. The result is a more capable, more productive toolroom machine at a used-market price, giving your shop room to grow into bigger and more complex jobs without moving up to a full production VMC.
