VF series mills are a range of 3-axis vertical machining centers, which can be outfitted with 4th and 5th axis drives if so configured. These mills are available in different sizes, ranging from VF-1 to VF-14. The VF in the name stands for "Very First" as the first machine Haas produced was the VF-1 ("Very First One").
CAM software automates the process of converting 3D models into tool paths, the route the multiaxis machine takes to mill a part (Fig. 1). This software takes into account the different parameters of the tool head (in the case of a CNC router, this would be the bit size), dimensions of the blank, and any constraints the machine may have.
A rating plate on a machine carries information about its operational limits. The plate frequently contains the names of the machine and its manufacturer, so the rating plate is often called a name plate (hence the term " nameplate capacity " for a generator), although many devices carry separate nameplates and rating plates.

A trunnion (from Old French trognon 'trunk') [1] is a cylindrical protrusion used as a mounting or pivoting point. First associated with cannons, they are an important military development. First associated with cannons, they are an important military development.
A Stewart platform is a type of parallel manipulator that has six prismatic actuators, commonly hydraulic jacks or electric linear actuators, attached in pairs to three positions on the platform's baseplate, crossing over to three mounting points on a top plate.
The second cylinder rotates with the first. The axes of the two cylinders are always parallel, but the mating faces are able to slide against each other. Thus the second cylinder can rotate about a different, but always parallel axis to the first. As the second cylinder approaches the edge to be located, it is pushed into alignment with the first.
Gene Francis Haas (born November 12, 1952) is the American founder, president, and sole stockholder of Haas Automation, a CNC machine tool manufacturer. He also has a presence in motorsports, having founded NASCAR teams Stewart-Haas Racing and Haas Factory Team, as well as the Formula One team, Haas F1 Team.
