Turning machine tool includes a workpiece spindle, a cantilevered longitudinal guide adjacent the workpiece spindle and movable parallel to the rotary axis thereof, at least one tool support mounted on the free end of the cantilevered longitudinal guide and being movable in a horizontal plane perpendicularly to the rotary axis of the workpiece spindle within a work space for the turning machine tool, guide means for the cantilevered longitudinal guide, and a round guide system which includes two transverse guides movable perpendicularly to the rotary axis of the workpiece spindle, the cantilevered longitudinal guide being supported outside the work space through the intermediary of the guide means in the round guide system.

Turning machine tool

A turning machine tool having a workpiece spindle and a tool turret shaft extending parallel thereto and including a transmission and drive means, a single free-standing front plate for supporting and bearing the spindle and the turret shaft, the front plate having a front side at which a working space is provided and a rear side on which the transmission and the drive means are mounted, the transmission having a housing and the spindle and the turret shaft being supported in bearing parts, the transmission housing and the spindle and turret-shaft bearing parts being mutually braced at a spacing from the rear side of the front plate so that in the working space at the front side of the front plate, coordination of a workpiece placed on the spindle to the tools of the turret, is stabilized.
