Overview
The Haas SR-3015 is a 3-axis CNC sheet router designed specifically for cutting sheet stock — aluminum, composites, plastics, and non-ferrous materials — in a large-format gantry-style platform. With a 3,048 x 1,524 mm (120 x 60 in) cutting envelope, it handles full 5x10-foot sheets without repositioning, which is the defining capability that separates sheet routers from conventional VMCs.
The spindle is a 22.4 kW (30 hp) inline direct-drive unit running to 15,000 RPM with a CT/BT 40 taper. That's significantly more spindle than most router-class machines offer, giving the SR-3015 the power to push large-diameter face mills and profile cutters through aluminum sheet at aggressive feed rates. The inline direct-drive design eliminates belts and gears for smoother operation and better surface finish at high RPM.
Travel is 3,048 x 1,524 x 152 mm (120 x 60 x 6 in). The 6 inches of Z travel is deliberate — this is a sheet-processing machine, not a deep-cavity mill. Rapids run at 30.5 m/min (1,200 ipm) on X and Y with 22.9 m/min (900 ipm) on Z. The T-slot table measures 3,099 x 1,524 mm (122 x 60 in) with a 1,361 kg (3,000 lb) load capacity, giving you full support under large sheet stock.
The 30+1 SMTC handles tool changes in 1.6-second tool-to-tool and 2.8-second chip-to-chip averages. Machine weight is approximately 8,165 kg (18,000 lb). The NGC control is the same as every other Haas, so any Haas operator can step onto this machine without retraining. For shops cutting aluminum sheet, composite panels, and plastic stock at production rates, the SR-3015 delivers a genuine Haas CNC experience in a sheet-router format.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Full 5x10-foot cutting envelope handles standard aluminum and composite sheet sizes without repositioning
- 30 HP 15,000 RPM inline direct-drive spindle provides far more power than typical router-class machines
- 1,200 ipm rapids on X and Y axes keep cycle times competitive on large-format sheet work
- 30+1 SMTC with 1.6-second tool-to-tool supports complex multi-tool nesting programs
- T-slot table with 3,000 lb capacity provides rigid support across the full cutting envelope
- Same NGC control as all Haas mills means zero retraining for existing Haas operators
Limitations
- 6 inches of Z travel limits the machine to sheet-thickness work — not suitable for deep pocketing or 3D contouring
- Large footprint requires significant floor space compared to standard VMCs
- No vacuum table option from factory — T-slot fixturing requires custom hold-down solutions for thin sheet
- Price premium over dedicated router-class machines from CR Onsrud, Thermwood, and others

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The SR-3015P adds a pallet system for load/unload while the machine is cutting, improving throughput on production sheet work. The cutting envelope and spindle specs are identical. The P variant costs more but pays for itself in reduced idle time on high-volume runs.
02
Technically yes, but it is not designed for steel work. The 6-inch Z travel and sheet router architecture are optimized for aluminum, composites, plastics, and non-ferrous materials. For steel work, a standard VMC like the VF-6 or GR series is more appropriate.
03
The SR-4020 increases the cutting envelope to 4,064 x 2,032 mm (160 x 80 in), handling larger sheet sizes. The spindle and control are the same. Choose based on your maximum sheet size requirement.
04
Base price starts around $140,000. With through-spindle coolant, probing, and production options, expect $160,000-$185,000. The P (pallet) variant adds approximately $20,000-$30,000 to the base price.
