Abstract: A drive for machine components has at least one threaded spindle having spindle sections with oppositely oriented axial pitch. Nuts are seated on the at least one threaded spindle and engage the spindle sections, respectively. At least one motor is connected to the at least one threaded spindle for driving the at least one threaded spindle. A first one of the nuts is connected to a machine component. A second one of the nuts is spatially stationary. The at least one threaded spindle provides a drive moment for driving the machine component.

Abstract: In a method for stocking tool magazines of a device for machining workpieces, the device having at least a first spindle and a second spindle configured to be independently movable relative to one another at least in one axis, wherein the first and second spindles have correlated therewith at least a first tool magazine and a second tool magazine, respectively, workpiece machining is continued by the second spindle during stocking of the first tool magazine, and workpiece machining is continued by the first spindle during stocking of the second tool magazine. Alternatively, stocking the first and second tool magazines can be carried out simultaneously.

Abstract: A tool having a base body which carries cutters for machining bores in a workpiece, the cutters being arranged coaxially with one another. The base body further has at least one lifting element, with which the base body can be moved from an eccentric position in relation to an axis of the workpiece bores into a central position, in which the axis of the tool coincides with the axis of the workpiece bores.

Abstract: A bearing device for a threaded spindle has a bearing housing with at least one receptacle configured to receive a bearing part of the threaded spindle. The at least one receptacle is a clamping bushing securing the bearing part by electromechanical elements or fluid-operated elements. The clamping bushing has a wall that is elastically deformable by a pressure medium. The wall and the bearing housing define an annular chamber configured to receive the pressure medium. A control unit is provided to control the pressure of the pressure medium and thus the clamping action of the clamping bushing.

Abstract: A tool having a base body is proposed, on which at least one cutter holder, preferably a rocker-type cutter holder, is mounted such that it can be adjusted transversely with respect to the axis of the tool. The cutter holder carries a cutter and rests via a pressure piece on a control chamfer, which is provided on a control sleeve which is mounted in the base body such that it can be displaced axially in relation to the pressure force. The tool is defined in that the movement of the cutter holder (35) is controlled by at least one centrifugal force-actuated element (44, 66).

Abstract: A device for machining bores in a workpiece has a tool with a base member and cutting blades mounted on the base member for machining coaxial bores in the workpiece. At least one guide bearing for supporting the tool is provided. The at least one guide bearing has a guide bearing axis coaxial to the workpiece axis. The tool and the at least one guide bearing are shaped such that the tool is guided and centered in the machining position of the tool by the at least one guide bearing and is insertable and removable in a radial offset position from the bores and the at least one guide bearing.
