Capacity - 40 taper spindle - 30 hp (22.4 kW) vector drive, 8100 rpm, 90 ft-lb @2000 rpm, inline direct-drive - Electronic Thermal Compensation to compensate for the expansion.- 20-station carousel tool changer - 1000 ipm (25.4 m/min) rapids (X, Y, Z) - 650 ipm max cutting in standard mode - 55-gallon (208 liter) flood coolant system - Max Footprint: 122" L x 90" W x 119" H - Max Weight: 13,500 lbs. - Controller Features: - 15" color LCD monitor, graphic dry run, Haas Connect, self-diagnostics, USB port, memory lock keyswitch, window blast, multi-function jog handle, rigid tapping, M-130 Media Display M-Code, advanced pocket milling, tool life management, background editing, 1 GB program memory, ethernet interface and power failure detection module., 1, EA;
LI 002: 10,000-rpm Spindle, 40 taper, 30 hp (22.4 kW) vector drive, inline direct-drive., 1, EA;
LI 003: Set up 5 times faster using the Wireless Intuitive Probing System (WIPS). WIPS guides the operator through the job set-up process with easy-to-use templates. WIPS has the ability to define work offset coordinates, set tool length offsets, and perform in-process inspection within the program, for both part inspection and tool breakage detection. Includes macros, spindle orientation and coordinate rotation and scaling. Includes the Haas Visual Programming System, macros, spindle orientation and coordinate rotation and scaling options, 1, EA;
LI 004: Increase the productivity of your mill by adding a 4th-axis rotary product. Reduce or totally eliminate multiple setups, and easily handle machining multi-sided parts (3+1 machining). Provides operators the ability to run fully interpolated, complex 4-axis programs. The 4th-axis drive allows the use of a fully integrated 4th-axis Haas rotary table or indexer for multi-sided machining, yielding increased productivity and reduced setups. Fully integrated to the Haas control â€" simply plug-n-play a Haas rotary table or indexer., 1, EA;
LI 005: Enhanced Remote Jog Handle with color LCD features a 2.8" color graphic display, an 11-button keypad, a triple-knob motion-control system that allows infinitely variable jog speeds, and a built-in LED inspection light. Operators can move the machine axes around while in a position to see what’s happening up-close. Eliminates operator movement back and forth between the work area inside the machine and the control pendent outside the machine. Operators can set tool and work offsets, jog up to 9 axes, display machine position, show the current program running and much more from the jog handle., 1, EA;
LI 006: Boost productivity, reduce cycle times and eliminate the opening and closing of the mill doors to adjust coolant lines. The Programmable Coolant Nozzle is a multi-position nozzle that automatically directs coolant precisely at the cutting tool. The position of the nozzle is controlled via the program, and set specifically for each tool length â€" saving operator time by eliminating constant adjustments. The nozzle position may also be adjusted manually from the control pendant while a program is running., 1, EA;
LI 007: Expanded on-board solid-state memory allows storing, running, and editing large programs directly at the machine. Eliminates security risks posed by external storage devices such as USB Thumb-Drives and SD Disks., 1, EA;
LI 008: The Through-Spindle Coolant system provides up to 300 psi (21 bar) of coolant to the cutting tool, allowing for heavier cuts, higher feedrates, deep-hole drilling, and better surface finishes. Through-Spindle Coolant, can reduce cycle times to increase throughput, and produce higher-quality parts. Maximum rpm with TSC enabled is 15,000 rpm., 1, EA;
LI 009: Auger-style chip conveyor automatically removes chips from the machine while compressing them and wringing out the coolant. The system automatically reverses if a jam occurs., 1, EA;
LI 010: Auxiliary Coolant Filter is an inexpensive method of keeping the coolant system unclogged and operating with maximum flow not only improves part finish, but also increases the life of tools and inserts. The two-stage filtration system keeps the coolant free of particulates, which extends the usable life of the coolant, and translates into considerable time and money savings. Mandatory for machines with through-tool coolant when machining cast iron, cast aluminum, wood, phenolic, and other particulate-producing materials., 1, EA;
LI 011: 10 Pull Studs, CT40 for through-spindle coolant, 1, EA;
LI 012: IUID tag plate per MIL-STD-130x, 1, EA;
LI 013: INCLUDES PACKAGING, FREIGHT/DELIVERY/MACHINE START-UP AND ALSO OPERATOR TRAINING, 1, EA;

"AMC-Level Protest Program If you have complaints about this procurement, it is preferable that you first attempt to resolve those concerns with the responsible contracting officer. However, you can also protest to Headquarters (HQ), Army Materiel Command (AMC). The HQ AMC-Level Protest Program is intended to encourage interested parties to seek resolution of their concerns within AMC as an Alternative Dispute Resolution forum, rather than filing a protest with the Government Accountability Office (GAO) or other external forum. Contract award or performance is suspended during the protest to the same extent, and within the same time periods, as if filed at the GAO. The AMC protest decision goal is to resolve protests within 20 working days from filing. To be timely, protests must be filed within the periods specified in FAR 33.103. If you want to file a protest under the HQ AMC-Level Protest Program, the protest must request resolution under that program and be sent to the address below. All other agency-level protests should be sent to the contracting officer for resolution. Headquarters U.S. Army Materiel Command
