Patent number: 8202206Abstract: A workpiece is machined using a first cutting tool and subsequent cutting tools in a predefined time sequence. The sequence of cutting tools defines a sequence of previous and subsequent cutting tools, with each previous cutting tool being replaced by a subsequent cutting tool in the course of the machining operations. Each previous cutting tool, which is replaced by a subsequent cutting tool, is deposited at a defined storage place in a tool magazine. When being put back into the tool magazine, the previous cutting tools are distributed to the storage places in a spatial sequence which is different from a spatial sequence at the start of the machining operations and which substantially corresponds to the time sequence.Type: GrantFiled: June 19, 2007Date of Patent: June 19, 2012Assignee: Stama Maschinenfabrik GmbHInventors: Achim Feinauer, Karl Frommer

Patent number: 7631407Abstract: A machine tool for cutting machining of work pieces has a tool spindle and a work piece spindle. The work piece spindle is a hollow spindle having a through hole extending through the spindle and a holding mechanism for holding a work piece at one end. The work piece held in the holding mechanism can be machined through the through hole by means of a machining tool held in the tool spindle.Type: GrantFiled: February 13, 2007Date of Patent: December 15, 2009Assignee: Stama Maschinenfabrik GmbHInventors: Achim Feinauer, Thomas Altmann, Pavel Blazek

Patent number: 7367929Abstract: A machine tool for the cutting machining of workpieces, in particular of metallic workpieces, has a first and a second tool spindle for receiving a first and a second machining tool, and it has a first and a second workpiece carrier for receiving a first workpiece and a second workpiece. The first tool spindle is movable relative to the first and to the second workpiece carrier in order to selectively machine the first or the second workpiece. Moreover, the first workpiece are movable relative to one another in order to transfer a workpiece from one workpiece carrier to the other workpiece carrier. The second tool spindle is movable relative to the second workpiece carrier in order to machine the second workpiece.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2007Date of Patent: May 6, 2008Assignee: STAMA Maschinenfabrik GmbHInventors: Achim Feinauer, Pavel Blazek

Patent number: 7177720Abstract: A machine tool comprises a tool carrier moveable relative to a workpiece to be machined. A controller controls the relative movement of the tool carrier and the workpiece by means of a control program. If an unplanned event occurs during the operational movement of the machine, the relative movement of the tool and the workpiece is stopped, and a restart from a starting position is carried out later. The starting position is in this case approached along a trajectory, and the trajectory is determined automatically as a function of the machining operation in which the unplanned event occurred.Type: GrantFiled: May 19, 2005Date of Patent: February 13, 2007Assignee: STAMA Maschinenfabrik GmbHInventors: Peter Grund, Rolf Kuppinger, Karl Frommer

Patent number: 6749495Abstract: A machine tool comprises a working area, closed by walls and a roof covering, in which a device for receiving a work piece is arranged, and a headstock with a main spindle is arranged, into which tools for machining the work piece can be clamped. Device and headstock are movable relatively to each other. In a front wall an opening lockable by a door leads into the working area. At least one part of the roof covering is movable between two positions in such a way that it locks the working area to the top in a first position and releases same to the top for loading in a second position.Type: GrantFiled: July 25, 2001Date of Patent: June 15, 2004Assignee: Stama Maschinenfabrik GmbHInventors: Peter Grund, Siegfried Schmid, Pavel Blazek, Walter Niederberger

Patent number: 6131259Abstract: A movable column is adjustable longitudinally and transversely in controlled fashion on a machine bed which defines a longitudinal direction and a transverse direction. A tool spindle is adjustable in controlled fashion on the movable column along a spindle axis normal to both the longitudinal direction and the transverse direction. A clamping axis is defined by a tool support which is rotationally adjustable in controlled fashion about this clamping axis and includes a clamping device through which a material rod can be pushed and in which it can be clamped. A front portion of the material rod, presenting the workpiece to be machined, is disposed within the working range of the tool spindle. A supply device is provided for pushing the material rod through the clamping device.Type: GrantFiled: January 4, 1999Date of Patent: October 17, 2000Assignee: Stama Maschinenfabrik GmbHInventors: Gerhard Stark, Pavel Blazek

Patent number: 5025539Abstract: A drilling and milling machine comprises a travelling pillar (20) having a tool spindle (25) which is movable along its own spindle axis (Z) and along the two further axes (X, Y) of a three-dimensional coordinate system (X, Y, Z), and a workpiece carrier (30) which is stepwise rotatable about a pivot axis (A). The pivot axis (A) extends horizontally and at right-angles to the spindle axis (Z). The workpiece carrier (30) is constructed for clamping a material bar (18), the axis of which coincides with the pivot axis (A) and the end portion of which forms a workpiece (18') to be machined by the workpiece spindle (25). On the travelling pillar (20) a severing unit (26) is arranged which in each operating cycle severs a machined workpiece (18') from the workpiece bar (18). The resulting partition face can then be further machined by the drilling and milling machine.Type: GrantFiled: January 11, 1990Date of Patent: June 25, 1991Assignee: Stama Maschinenfabrik GmbHInventor: Gerhard Stark
