Abstract: An arrangement for feeding rod-shaped workpieces to a machine tool comprises an elongated hollow guide member for accommodating a respective workpiece therein. A support structure extends longitudinally of the guide member and surrounds the same with spacing, and a plurality of elongated elastically yieldable members extends longitudinally of the guide member in the spacing and supports the guide member in the support structure. The oscillations to which the guide member is subjected during the operation of the arrangement are damped by the elastically yieldable members so that they are not transmitted to the support structure. The elastically yieldable members may be hollow tubes into which a pressurized medium is introduced, and the pressure of the medium may be adjusted so as to correspond to the various working conditions.
