Abstract: An apparatus for machining an end of a tube clamped within the apparatus and including a tool head rotatable about the axis of the tube, a plurality of tool holders including tools arranged about the tool head and radially moveable with respect to the axis, a plurality of push rods uniformly positioned about the tool head and axially parallel to the axis including oblique toothing positioned about one end thereof and a frame connected to the push rods and being displaceable along the axis to provide axial movement to the push rods. A transmission device including toothing for engaging the toothing on the push rods is positioned between the tool holders and push rods for imparting radial movement to the tool holders and tools connected thereto based upon axial movement of the push rods.
