Haas Controls

• Depending on the make, model, and age of CNC Mill you will be running, there are a variety of different control interfaces that you will have to be able to interact with

• We will primarily be using machines with Haas Control Panels in our labs, but it is important to familiarize yourself with as many interfaces as possible, throughout your career

  • It is notable that all control panels are capable of essentially the same base functionality, they just have different configurations and workflows for using them

    • Typically, the older the machine is, the more "clunky" and less user-friendly the interface is, whereas newer machines tend to be "slick" and intuitive

• Some of the most common controls include the Siemens, FANUC, & Haas Controllers, each of which have several generations/models, respectively:
