  • Machine tool
    Patent number: 7255519
    Abstract: The present invention provides a machine tool capable of suppressing cost increase of a cover even when a long workpiece is machined. A machining unit 3 by which the spindle 2 is supported to be movable in X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis directions relative to the machining table 5; and a shielding mechanism 100 provided in said machining unit 3 to prevent chips and coolant from scattering out of a machining area.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 13, 2006
    Date of Patent: August 14, 2007
    Assignee: Mori Seiki Co., Ltd.

  • Machine tool
    Patent number: 7172375
    Abstract: The present invention provides a machine tool realizing high-speed movement of a spindle and thus reducing the machining time without any increase in size of the whole machine. A machining unit 3 by which a spindle 2 with a tool T attached thereto is supported to be relatively movable in X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis directions is mounted on a long bed 4 having a plurality of machining areas a1 to a4 arranged in one direction, and the machining unit 3 is movable in the arrangement direction of the machining areas.
