Also at EMO Milano will be the newly developed Haas DM-1 high-speed 40-taper drill/mill centre. The inline direct-drive spindle turns to 15,000 rpm, and allows high-speed rigid tapping. Furthermore, the spindle is coupled directly to the motor to reduce heat, increase power transmission, and provide excellent surface finishes.

The DM-1, which offers a 508 x 406 x 394 mm work cube, provides cutting feed rates to 30.5 m/min for high speed milling, while the machine's 18+1 side-mount tool changer swaps tools quickly to reduce non-cutting time.

EMO visitors will also be drawn to the new ST-15 big bore turning centre. The machine now provides a maximum cutting capacity of 356 x 406 mm, with a swing of 406 mm over the cross slide. For shops wanting additional capability for secondary operations, a Y-axis version of the ST-15 is also available. The ST-15Y has the same footprint and specifications as the ST-15, but with a maximum capacity of 305 x 406 mm.

Aside from the machines, another star on the stand will be the Haas F1 car. As fans already know, the technical partner of the Haas F1 Team is Scuderia Ferrari, located just 200km from EMO 2015, where the new chassis is undergoing vigorous wind tunnel testing.

EMO 2015 takes place at the Fieramilano exhibition venue and is open from 09:30 to 18:00 each day of the show.
