Midaco Trunnion System for 4th Axis Machining


Trunnion System and Rotary Indexer shown in VMC

ONLY ONE 4th Axis is required to get the benefits of a Horizontal Machining Center on your VMC equipped with a MIDACO Automatic Pallet Changer. Increase 4th Axis productivity by adding our TRUNNION SYSTEM.


If you’re looking for new ways to innovate on your machining floor, perhaps you aren’t actualizing the full potential of your machining center at hand.


NO Cable Management Required

Midaco Automatic Pallet Changer AS5020SD with Trunnion System

With MIDACO’s Trunnion System, increase 4th-axis productivity by turning your vertical machining center into a horizontal machining center with NO cable management required.

This system includes one 4th axis actuator assembly and two trunnions which are then mounted on your new or existing Automatic Pallet Changer, and it works with any 4th axis rotary-indexer (not included). Additional individual trunnions are also available separately.

Only ONE Rotary Indexer Needed for Two Pallets

Midaco Trunnion System

A trunnion is mounted on each pallet of the Automatic Pallet Changer outside the vertical machining center, giving you access to TWO machining set-ups for just one rotary indexer. 

Once transferred into the machine table, the pallet clamps onto the MIDACO receiver and the trunnion automatically engages with the 4th axis rotary indexer, providing a cost-effective solution to increase your VMC’s capability by machining 360 degrees without needing cumbersome cable management.

Vertical Rotary Faceplate

Midaco Vertical Rotary Faceplate with T-slots on Automatic Pallet Changer

Similar to the Trunnion System, MIDACO’s Vertical Rotary Faceplate can increase the versatility of your workholding options when combined with your rotary indexer and is mounted onto the pallet in use. Once transferred into the machining area via the MIDACO Automatic Pallet Changer, the faceplate engages with your rotary indexer and rotates 360 degrees to machine multiple sides. Available with T-Slots or Spindle holes.


For pallet sizes from 22" x 15" up to 50" x 24"
