  • Patent number: 11850693
    Abstract: A machine tool for machining workpieces comprises at least one tool spindle, at least one workpiece table, at least one first tool magazine, and at least one second tool magazine. The at least one tool spindle and the at least one workpiece table are movable relative to one another along a vertical axis and two horizontal axes to machine a workpiece that is clamped on the workpiece table with a tool that is clamped in the tool spindle. The vertical axis and the two horizontal axes are orthogonal to one another. The at least one first tool magazine, a tool set is provided that comprises a plurality of tools for machining, wherein the tools can be selectively clamped in the tool spindle. The at least one second tool magazine, a tool set is provided that comprises a plurality of tools for machining, wherein the tools can be selectively clamped in the tool spindle.

  • Publication number: 20230356338
    Abstract: An equipping device for a machine tool comprises a tool shuttle that is movable between a first transfer position and a second transfer position, a provision location for insertion or removal of a tool, and a tool carrying unit that is associated with the tool shuttle. The tool carrying unit comprises at least one gripping mechanism that is adapted to grip a tool to be transferred and to secure it to the tool shuttle. The provision location is accessible for the tool shuttle in the first transfer position. The tool shuttle is configured to exchange a tool between the provision location and a magazine location of a tool magazine. The magazine location is accessible for the tool shuttle in the second transfer position. The gripping mechanism comprises a guide element that is movable relative to a base body of the tool shuttle and a securing element that is movable relative to the guide element. At least the guide element is movable parallel to a longitudinal axis of the tool.

  • Patent number: 10046427
    Abstract: A workpiece change for use in a machine tool that comprises a tool spindle for clamping tools for machining workpieces, comprises two wheels arranged parallel to one another and rotatable about an axis of rotation into at least two prominent angular positions. Two swivel tables for clamping workpieces are arranged between the wheels and are each mounted on the wheels to swivel about a swivel axis which runs parallel to the axis of rotation. In each prominent angular position, one of the swivel tables is located in its working position in which clamped workpieces can be machined with the tools. Both wheels are supported at their rim.
