What we have listed Haas DS-30 machines at
Across 31 Haas DS-30 machines we have listed with a published price, the range ran from $39,750 to $185,000. These are the prices we asked, not what any machine changed hands for — condition, hours, tooling and control generation move a machine within that band. Ask us where a specific one sits.
Before you buy
Getting one inspected
We always strongly recommend an inspection before you buy. KD does not perform it ourselves — the inspection is done by you, by a third-party technician, or by the OEM.
We have a network of 3rd party techs whom we can recommend. Most buyers are looking at a machine in another state or across the country, and sending a tech who is already nearby saves the travel time and cost of going to see it yourself.
An inspection on a lathe typically covers the way covers, the chuck and jaws, the tailstock, turret indexing, coolant condition and ballscrew backlash.
Spindle hours are worth confirming rather than taking from a listing, because an hours meter can be reset. A high-hour machine that has been maintained regularly is a lot better than a lower-hour machine that has been neglected.
Buy the options from the factory
We would not recommend buying a machine and adding options later. It is very expensive to do so if it did not come out of the factory with those options.
That applies to live tooling, a tailstock, a sub-spindle, high-pressure coolant, a tool presetter, a parts catcher and a chip conveyor. The parts catcher and the chip conveyor look like bolt-ons and are not — they are hard and expensive to add after the fact.
A bar feeder is the exception. That one can be added at a reasonable expense.
Clear title
KD runs lien searches on every transaction so that our buyers can have peace of mind that they are purchasing an asset that does not have any active liens on it. We take this very seriously and are willing to pass up a deal if the seller won't cooperate on getting active liens cleared.
