Haas · CNC mills and lathes

A WiFi USB stick for your Haas.

Runs a program straight from the stick, or copies it into memory. WiFiDrive stays in its USB port, looks to the Haas like any stick, and gets your programs there over your own WiFi.

  • Works as it ships: the Haas reads it as is.
  • Run a program straight from it, as from any stick.
  • If your Haas won’t read it, a full refund within 30 days.

The stick

What a Haas asks of it.

  • PortOn the right side of the control pendant, under a removable dust cap
  • FormatFAT32 and USB 3.1 or lower by Haas's guide; the Haas machines we tested read WiFiDrive's FAT16 as it ships
  • File namesPrograms are named Onnnnn; a subprogram called from outside memory must be Onnnnn.nc
  • Writes backPrograms copied out, and backups; settings go to USB0/<serial>/CONFIGURATION/
  • WiFiDrive’s layoutThe one it ships with
  • Sourceshaas.co.uk, haascnc.com, haascnc.com (2), haascnc.com (3), practicalmachinist.com (forum)

Will it work with your Haas?

If your Haas reads a USB stick, it reads WiFiDrive. If yours doesn’t, send it back within 30 days for a full refund.
