What is the Haas DT-1?

At Basin Precision, we believe that efficiency drives value—and the Haas DT-1 Drill/Tap Center helps us deliver both. Designed for high-speed, high-volume production, this vertical machining center is built to handle tight-tolerance parts with short cycle times and fast turnarounds.

The DT-1 is a compact, high-speed drill and tap machine with full milling capabilities. A powerful BT30 taper inline direct-drive spindle provides 10,000 rpm and allows high-speed rigid tapping. A high-speed, 20-pocket tool changer swaps tools quickly, while 1200 ipm rapids, 1.5 seconds chip-to-chip tool change and high acceleration rates shorten cycle times and reduce non-cutting time.

Features of the Haas DT-1

• High-speed spindle: 15,000 RPM for rapid material removal and superior surface finish.

• Rapid tool changes: 20+1 side-mount tool changer with 1.5 second chip-to-chip tool change time.

• Compact yet capable: 508 x 406 x 394 mm (X/Y/Z) travel for small and medium part sizes.

• 30.5 m/min rapids: Extremely fast axis movements reduce non-cutting time.

• Rigid tapping: Perfect for threads in high volumes with minimal cycle interruption.

• Haas Next-Gen Control: Simple, user-friendly interface with powerful functionality and connectivity.

Benefits of the Haas DT-1

• Faster turnaround times: The DT-1’s blazing speed means shorter cycle times, faster setups, and quicker deliveries—ideal for just-in-time manufacturing or urgent projects.
• Excellent surface finishes: The high-speed spindle produces clean, consistent finishes, reducing the need for secondary operations like polishing or grinding.
• Ideal for small, precise components: From aluminum housings to tight-tolerance brackets, the DT-1 excels at machining lightweight materials with high accuracy and minimal deflection.
• Lower cost per part: Efficiency translates into value. With rapid tool changes and minimal idle time, we produce your parts faster—saving time and reducing cost.
• Lights-out ready: With the right setup, our DT-1 can run unattended during off-hours, keeping your production moving even when we’re not on the clock.
