Overview
The Haas Mini Mill-EDU is the reduced-speed version of the Mini Mill: the same 16 × 14 × 15 in (406 × 356 × 381 mm) travels and 36 × 12 in (914 × 305 mm) table, with a 6,000 rpm spindle and axis speeds held to 400 ipm (10.2 m/min). Haas lists a starting price of US$40,995.
Three figures separate it from the standard machine. The Mini Mill spindle runs to 8,000 rpm, against 6,000 rpm here. Mini Mill rapids are 800 ipm (20.3 m/min) and its cutting feed 650 ipm, where the EDU uses 400 ipm (10.2 m/min) for both. And the Mini Mill is listed with a carousel of 10 or 20 tools, while the tool capacity row for the EDU reads 10 (opt.).
So do not assume a tool changer. The carousel is an option; where it is fitted, changes take 4.2 s tool-to-tool and 5 s chip-to-chip, and tools can be up to 3.5 in (89 mm) in diameter, 12 in (305 mm) long and 12 lb (5.4 kg).
Slower axes and a lower top speed do not make it a light machine. Power is 10 hp (7.5 kW) through a belt drive into a CT or BT 40 taper, and thrust is 2,000 lbf (8,896 N) on each axis, so it cuts with full-size 40-taper tooling. What it gives up is cycle time and surface speed on small tools. Haas's table carries no spindle torque figure for this model.
The supply rows include single-phase power, 220 VAC at 40 A, as well as three-phase at 220 VAC and 25 A or 440 VAC and 13 A. Table load is 500 lb (227 kg) and the machine ships at 4,450 lb (2,018.5 kg).

- Full Mini Mill envelope: 16 × 14 × 15 in (406 × 356 × 381 mm) travels on a 36 × 12 in (914 × 305 mm) table
- 10 hp (7.5 kW) CT or BT 40 spindle, the same power rating as the Mini Mill
- 2,000 lbf (8,896 N) of thrust on X, Y and Z
- 500 lb (227 kg) table load on a table with three T-slots at 4.33 in (110 mm) centers
Limitations
- Spindle tops out at 6,000 rpm, against 8,000 rpm on the Mini Mill
- Rapids and cutting feed are both limited to 400 ipm (10.2 m/min); the Mini Mill rapids at 800 ipm (20.3 m/min)
- The 10-tool carousel is listed as optional, so a base machine should not be assumed to have a tool changer

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Speed and tool changer. The Mini Mill-EDU spindle runs to 6,000 rpm and its rapids and cutting feed are both 400 ipm (10.2 m/min), with a 10-tool carousel listed as optional. The Mini Mill runs to 8,000 rpm, rapids at 800 ipm (20.3 m/min), cuts at up to 650 ipm and is listed with a carousel of 10 or 20 tools. Travels, table size, table load and the 10 hp (7.5 kW) rating are the same.
02
Not necessarily. The tool capacity row in Haas's table reads 10 (opt.), which marks the 10-tool carousel as an option. With it, a tool change takes 4.2 s tool-to-tool and 5 s chip-to-chip, and tools are limited to 3.5 in (89 mm) in diameter, 12 in (305 mm) in length and 12 lb (5.4 kg).
03
Haas lists three choices: 220 VAC single-phase at 40 A, 220 VAC three-phase at 25 A, or 440 VAC three-phase at 13 A. Air consumption is 4 scfm at 100 psi (113 L/min at 6.9 bar).
04
The TM-0 has more X travel, 20 in (508 mm), but 12 in (305 mm) of Y, a 7.5 hp (5.6 kW) 4,000 rpm spindle and 200 ipm (5.1 m/min) for rapids and cutting feed. The Mini Mill-EDU has 16 in (406 mm) of X and 14 in (356 mm) of Y, with 10 hp (7.5 kW), 6,000 rpm and 400 ipm (10.2 m/min). Table load is 350 lb (159 kg) on the TM-0 and 500 lb (227 kg) here.
