It's a fairly inexpensive (up to very expensive) knee milling machine (2.5 axis) which can be used to machine many different parts. It essentially looks like a drill press with tons of extra knobs. It can also be set up with numeric controls and/or digital readouts to do very precise or automated work. Along with a lathe, it's the foundation of most machinists arsenal.
Edit: Bridgeport is a Brand Name, there are other companies that manufacture these types of machines also.

I am assuming you will bolt the Bridgeport to the steel plate and this is why you are using it. Even if that is the case, the Bridgeport has a higher center of gravity than what would be desired for this situation. Also the load on the truck would perhaps cause issues with proper control of vehicle. I would not want to even be around you on the road much less in the vehicle. Please rent a proper truck for the situation or hire the move done by heavy load movers. It will be safer for everyone.
