Trunnion System

Product catalog summary
Overview: The MIDACO Trunnion System is designed for use with an Automatic Pallet Changer and a 4th Axis to enhance the capabilities of vertical machining centers, providing benefits similar to horizontal machining centers. The system does not include the 4th Axis Rotary-Indexer, which must be acquired separately.
Key Components:
  • 4th Axis Actuator Assembly: Essential for the operation of the trunnion system, allowing for the machining of multiple sides of a part.
  • Trunnions: These are clamped onto the pallet and transferred into the machining area via the Automatic Pallet Changer.
Specifications:
  • Only one 4th Axis is required to operate two trunnions.
  • The trunnion system is designed to machine all sides of a part without the need for cable management, as the 4th Axis remains within the machine tool.
  • The trunnion measures 21 inches (533.4mm) long by 8 inches (203.2mm) wide.
Benefits:
  • Increases productivity of the 4th Axis by adding a Trunnion or a Vertical Rotary Faceplate (VRF) to a MIDACO Pallet Changer.
  • The VRF provides increased versatility for workholding options.
