KME 5-axis Trunnions
Turn Your Vertical Machining Center into a 5-Axis Production Machine. Designed specifically for Vertical Machining Centers, KME CNC’s 5-axis platters are built right into a precision rigid meehanite cast iron trunnion frame and table. Standard models come with 1, 2, or 3 independent 5-axis platters on the trunnion table, giving your VMC full-range production capability. Just like the 5-axis tombstones, KME CNC’s trunnions are able to completely integrate with control systems, so you do not need to program the control box. Our units will work with direct g-code from your machine controls.
Features:
• Ability to position parts for five sides machining
• Increasing operator’s efficiency by reducing set up time
• Easy install on existing equipment with no additional drive cards
• Utilize existing space inside machine more efficiently
• Programmable directly through g-code
• Excellent dimensions for various machine sizes
• 0 backlash for 10,000 hrs of continuous use
“KME’s trunnion is so compact and so powerful that I have been able to witness some of the best surface finishes I have encountered.”
– Justin at CNC Precision
The World’s 1st Wireless Trunnion – TR 100 RF
New Trunnion model TR 100RF has all of the features of the standard wired models while being the perfect application for palletizing VMC.
An easy to use system with no messy cables.
Custom Applications
KME CNC can design a trunnion for your application. Custom 5-axis trunnions can be made to specific matching needs including different drive configuration, large or smaller sizes, less or more platters. KME CNC’s trunnions have the lowest platter height in the industry, with 7.87” from table to platter, allowing maximum Z height clearance. KME CNC can also manufacture trunnions with 10” platters, depending on their specific needs. No additional drive cards necessary!
