Overview
The Haas ST-40LY combines an 80 in (2,032 mm) bed with a Y axis, a C axis and BMT75 live tooling, on a lathe that turns up to 27.5 in (699 mm) in diameter. Y travel is ± 3 in (± 76 mm) and the live tools run to 4,000 rpm.
Large, long parts are slow and risky to re-fixture, and that is the argument for this configuration: mill the keyway, drill the cross-holes and cut the flats while the shaft is still between the chuck and the tailstock. The C axis interpolates and positions to 0.01°, turns at up to 49 rpm on a 5 hp (3.7 kW) rating, and is held by a 21.5 in (546 mm) brake with 450 ft-lbf (610 N·m) of holding torque.
Compared with the two-axis ST-40L, the Y axis takes turning diameter from 30 in (762 mm) down to 27.5 in (699 mm) and X rapid from 710 ipm (18 m/min) down to 472 ipm (12 m/min). Y moves at 472 ipm as well, and Z at 320 ipm (8.1 m/min). Y thrust is 2,300 lbf (10,231 N) against 5,500 lbf (24,465 N) on X and 9,000 lbf (40,034 N) on Z.
The turret has 12 BMT75 stations and indexes in 2 s. Turning output is 40 hp (29.8 kW), 1,400 ft-lbf (1,898 N·m) at 150 rpm and 2,400 rpm, with an XP option listed at 55 hp (41 kW) and 2,100 ft-lbf (2,847 N·m) at 150 rpm. The MT5 tailstock travels 84.5 in (2,145 mm) and pushes with 200 lbf (890 N) to 3,000 lbf (13,345 N).
Haas lists a starting price of US$292,995. The table for this model carries no weight or shipping dimensions, so get those from Haas before planning the foundation and rigging.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- ± 3 in (± 76 mm) of Y travel on an 80 in (2,032 mm) bed
- BMT75 live tooling at 4,000 rpm with a 2 s turret index
- C-axis brake of 21.5 in (546 mm) diameter with 450 ft-lbf (610 N·m) of holding torque
- MT5 tailstock with 84.5 in (2,145 mm) of travel, so long shafts stay supported while they are milled
- 1,400 ft-lbf (1,898 N·m) at 150 rpm, or 2,100 ft-lbf (2,847 N·m) with the XP option
Limitations
- Turning diameter is 27.5 in (699 mm), down from 30 in (762 mm) on the ST-40L
- The C axis tops out at 49 rpm and 5 hp (3.7 kW), which suits positioning and light contouring more than heavy C-axis milling
- Z rapid of 320 ipm (8.1 m/min) across 80 in (2,032 mm) of travel
- No machine weight or shipping size is listed for this model

Frequently Asked Questions
01
A Y axis with ± 3 in (± 76 mm) of travel, an interpolating C axis and BMT75 live tools at 4,000 rpm. The ST-40L is a two-axis machine that turns 30 in (762 mm) in diameter with a 710 ipm (18 m/min) X rapid. The ST-40LY turns 27.5 in (699 mm) and its X rapid is 472 ipm (12 m/min). Turning length, chuck, bar capacity and spindle rating are the same.
02
Haas lists its control type as interpolated motion and positioning, with 0.01° positioning, a 49 rpm maximum and a 5 hp (3.7 kW) rating. The brake is 21.5 in (546 mm) in diameter and holds 450 ft-lbf (610 N·m). On a part near 27.5 in (699 mm) across, a cutting force at the rim has a long lever arm, so check the holding torque against the cut before milling far from center with the spindle clamped.
03
BMT75 live tooling at up to 4,000 rpm, in a 12-station turret that indexes in 2 s. The turret takes any combination of OD and ID tools, varying with the turret, and boring-bar rear clearance is 4.5 in (114 mm) from the turret face. The live tools run faster than the 2,400 rpm main spindle.
04
Yes. The ST-40SY has the same ± 3 in (± 76 mm) Y travel, 27.5 in (699 mm) turning diameter and 4,000 rpm live tools with 28 in (711 mm) of turning length, and its Z rapid is 710 ipm (18 m/min). The ST-40LY's 80 in (2,032 mm) is for shaft-type parts; short, wide parts do not need it.
05
An MT5 tailstock with 84.5 in (2,145 mm) of travel. Thrust ranges from 200 lbf (890 N) to 3,000 lbf (13,345 N). Being able to mill and drill with the tailstock engaged is much of the value of a Y axis on a bed this long.
