The table clearly is a welding table. It has a welding cable connection on the bottom that swivels. (and also came with some length of
But what does it do exactly, eludes me. It is made by Automated Concepts of Omaha, NE, that fell victim to corporate carnage.

What Pete said: two position rotary table. Typically used on a robot welder, slight chance it could be used for a manual operation if the setup is particularly ugly or they wanted to let things cool in the fixture. You will find that the table spins fairly fast. I'd expect it to spin 180 degrees in 5 to 10 seconds. Look for some detents or locking pins to assure that it is EXACTLY in position.
