Patent number: 11103936Abstract: In the internal milling machine according to the invention for milling a work piece that rotates during machining with an annular internal milling cutter (5) on the one hand side the Z slide (4a, b) of each tool support (3a, b) includes a pass through opening and on the other hand side the transversal slide (7) supporting the internal milling cutter (5) is move able in the X-direction, the running direction of the mounting surface (1a) of the bed (1) wherein the mounting surface slopes downward in a forward direction. Based on this general configuration and in particular the arrangement of the Z-slides (6a, b) for the at least one tool support (3a, b) outside of the Z-supports (16a, b) for the opposite spindle stock (2?) yields advantageous centers of gravity in particular of the move able components and a high level of stability of the machine and therefore high level of machining precision of the machine.Type: GrantFiled: July 28, 2017Date of Patent: August 31, 2021Assignee: MAG IAS GmbHInventors: Walter Pompe, Andreas Schweizer, Günther Puschina, Achim Fleischer, Anders Helmut, Ralf Rummel, Manuel Schwarz, Daniel Ost
