Machine Operation: This machine takes all of the different sized parts shown on the front of the machine
(see photo below) and feeds them down the tracks to a station where the “trunion” is clamped in the closed
position, the cap pressed in place and the finished assembly is ejected into the discharge bin visible under the
machine. No adjustments are required in the tooling for the different sized parts
