3-Axis CNC Routers for Sheet Work - The HAAS SR Series Sheet Routers

Oxnard, CA ~ Machining large sheets of material or oversized flat parts can prove challenging for today's manufacturers and contract machine shops. The sheer size of the material requires a large-capacity machine, but the work itself usually requires high speed, rather than heavy milling.

The new SR Series Sheet Routers from Haas Automation, Inc., are affordable solutions that provide expansive capacity in lighter-weight, gantry-style, 3-axis CNC machines. The SR-100, with 100" x 52" x 8" (xyz) travels, easily accommodates 4' x 8' sheets of material; the larger SR-200, with 148" x 76" x 8" (xyz) travels, handles sheets up to 6' x 12'. Both machines accept ISO standard G-code programming through the user-friendly, full-function Haas CNC control.

Each SR Series router comes equipped with a 24,000-rpm, 5-hp (continuous) 30-taper spindle for cutting and drilling various plastics, sheet metals and other light materials. An optional 10-pocket automatic tool changer is available for unattended operation using multiple tools. Other high-productivity options include high-speed machining with look-ahead, a hard disc drive with Ethernet interface, a remote jog handle and full 4th-axis capability.

The open-frame design of the SR Series machines allows users to design their own table and fixturing specifically to meet their individual needs (a 1" thick MDF table is standard). The overhead gantry assembly travels the full length of the fixed table on precision, low-friction linear guides, resulting in extremely accurate positioning. Powerful brushless servomotors on all axes produce high-speed rapids (up to 2,000 ipm in X and Y) for fast cycle times. The standard configuration includes a 15" color LCD monitor and USB port.

The Haas SR Series Sheet Routers offer specialty shops and manufacturers a highly flexible, easily customized machine of exceptional quality and value. As with all Haas products, they're backed by the worldwide network of Haas Factory Outlets, offering the industry's best local service and support.
