Has anyone seen a hydrolic indexer?

Hi Hipshot,

Never seen one in the flesh but it is a point of interest.

So, did a Google search and found the following result.

There is a downloadable .pdf file that shows how these machines work for anyone
that may be interested.

I have seen a few Hydraulic ACTUATORS but not indexers.  Also have seen pneumatic actuators.

Seen loads of mechanical indexers.  Steer clear of the ones that create grooving of the steel base.
