The indexing table facilitates multiface machining in a single setup, thereby concentrating machining operations for greater efficiency. The sides of a deep cavity can be machined with a shorter tool length by rotating the table and inclining the workpiece.

Side tables are provided on the right and left sides of the indexing table to facilitate the machining of long workpieces.

Indexing is accomplished by using highly accurate, rigid sliding surfaces to provide indexing action without lifting up the table. The adoption of this non-lifting table enables even heavy workpieces to be indexed easily.
