The new Stallion Hybrid trunnions from TrunnionTable.com enable faceplates and chucks to be installed without removal of the trunnion table for faster part setups, increased productivity and higher-quality parts. The product comes in two models: the 9/20 and the 9/23. The units accommodate a variety of vises, fixtures, three- and four-jaw chucks and collet chucks for flexible job shop workholding. The 9/20 features dimensions of 9" × 20" and is designed to hold a 6" vise. The 9/23 features dimensions of 9" × 23" and is designed for double- or single-station 6" vises.

Subplates and quick-change subplates are available. Standard baseplates enable the trunnion assembly to be offset to one side of the machine to maximize machine travel. A pneumatic brake, built into the outboard support, provides as much as 600 lbs. of clamping. This makes the machine applicable for shops doing heavy off-center milling and drilling. Hydraulic workholding packages are also available.

The trunnions are engineered to bolt onto a machine’s rotary indexer, allowing operators to mill, drill, tap and contour as many as three sides of a part in one setup.
