Abstract: A device for loading and unloading a machine-tool with tools, the tools being mounted in a tool store and being transportable via a manipulation device, which is particularly movable along multiple axes to a transfer position on the machine tool or in the machine tool and, after use in the machine tool, being removable therefrom, and the manipulation device having a gripper device for receiving the tools. To save weight and increase the access speed of the manipulation device, the manipulation device has at least one displacement arm movable in a preferably horizontal first movement direction, which is mounted so it is displaceable on a guide element, and the gripper device is mounted so it is displaceable on the displacement arm in this first movement direction.

Abstract: The invention relates to a manipulation device for loading and unloading a shelf, in particular for a processing center, having at least one lift truck including a telescopic extension, the telescopic extension having at least one first telescoping part and at least one second telescoping part, and the first telescoping part being connected to the lift truck and the second telescoping part being connected to the first telescoping part so it is displaceable in an essentially horizontal displacement direction.

Abstract: An apparatus for chucking workpieces (13; 13a, 13b, 13c, 13d, 13e, 13f, 13g, 13h, 13i, 13j) on a machining center (1) includes a base plate (22) having a holding fixture for a clamping jaw (10) of the machining center (1) and at least one clamping surface protruding upwardly from the base plate (22) in the used position and including a plurality of workpiece holding fixtures. An improved possibility for use can be achieved in such a way that the clamping surface is arranged in an integral manner with the base plate (22).
