Hydromat EPIC II Trunnion V8 & V12 Rotary Transfer Machine image

The EPIC II Trunnion rotary transfer machines come in two models; the V8 and V12. These models are equipped with the EPIC II CNC control featuring plug-and-play toolspindles for greater flexibility.These modular machines provide tremendous versatility and flexibility in a turnkey machining system.

Hydromat Trunnion machines are well suited for the manufacturing of small casting applications, irregularly-extruded bar stock parts and shafts from 1/2” to 12” in length. The Trunnion machines are equipped with 8 (V8 machine) or 12 (V12 machine) chucks. These hydraulically actuated, self-centering chuck jaws keep the workpiece stationary while the table indexes to each machining position.

Consistent, high productivity and precise machining, combined with the elimination of costly secondary operations make the Trunnion machines an outstanding solution for cost effective manufacturing.
