Abstract: An edge-routing unit has a routing tool (4) on a shaft (9) of a routing motor (6), which is arranged on a rest (10), and which is controlled approximately along a workpiece outline in a workpiece feed-through direction, an X-axis, and in a workpiece thickness direction, a Z-axis. Furthermore, by way of a feeler wheel (5), which is coaxial to the routing tool (4) and which travels over a workpiece surface adjoining an edge strip (3), the rest (10) is supported on the workpiece (1) for follow-up of the routing tool (4) according to a contour sensed. In order to be able to change adjustment of the routing tool (4) relative to the feeler wheel (5) during machining operations, a positioning slide (15) is arranged on the rest (10), on which the positioning slide (15) and the routing motor (6) sit together with the routing tool (4) and which is traversable in a motor-operated program-controlled manner relative to the rest (10), in a direction of the X-axis and in a direction of the Z-axis.
