A machine tool is provided, comprising a machine frame, at least one carrier device for a tool or a workpiece by means of which a tool acting on a workpiece or a workpiece being acted upon by a tool is held during the machining of a workpiece, and a holding device holding the at least one carrier device in a non-movable or movable manner relative to the machine frame, wherein a bearing device is provided by means of which the at least one carrier device is mounted in a floating manner on the holding device with displaceability in a direction of displacement along a displacement path, and wherein an adjusting device is provided by means of which the position of the at least one carrier device along the displacement path can be adjusted and fixed.

Machine tool with floating carrier device

In order to provide a machine tool with at least one movable slide, which has a plurality of holders for tools and/or workpieces, and which can be corrected in a simple manner, the at least one slide has a plurality of separate subslides and the relative position of the subslides in relation to one another is adjustable in a securable manner.

Machine tool and method for the correction or compensation of different tool lengths in a machine tool

A tool changing device for a machine tool with at least one tool carrier is proposed, which comprises at least one transit station, into which a tool is introducable in an inward transit direction and is extractable in an outward transit direction, wherein, at the transit station, the tool is at least one of detachable from the assigned tool carrier and fixable to the tool carrier provided.

Tool changing device for a machine tool and method for changing tools on a machine tool

The invention discloses a tool-changing concept in which tools are accommodated in a rack and, by means of a storage and retrieval unit located behind the rack, are removed and fed through the rack to a tool changer, by means of which it is possible to remove a tool from a spindle of the machining center and to insert the tool fed by the storage and retrieval unit.

Tool-changing system

To improve a machine tool, comprising a machine frame, a workpiece holder arranged on the machine frame for a workpiece to be machined, a tool holder arranged on the machine frame for receiving a tool and at least one drive with a slide for executing a relative movement between the tool and the workpiece in the direction of at least one axis, such that it allows as high dynamics as possible, it is proposed that the drive comprise electric linear motors aligned parallel to the axis and spaced from one another in a transverse direction, that the slide extend between the two linear motors, and that a control be provided for simultaneously operating the linear motors for displacement of the slide.

Machine tool

In order to improve a device for the non-circular machining of workpieces comprising a machine frame, a workpiece spindle held on the machine frame and operated as C-axis for a workpiece to be machined, a Z-slide displaceable on the machine frame in the Z-direction in relation to the workpiece spindle and having a Z-axis drive, an X-axis drive in the form of a linear motor arranged on the Z-slide for advancing a tool in the X-direction towards the workpiece, and a numerical control system for activating the X-axis drive in correlation with the rotation of the workpiece spindle, such that more precise work results are obtained, it is proposed that the linear motor serving as X-axis drive be a three-phase asynchronous linear motor with a primary part fixedly arranged in the X-direction on the Z-slide and a secondary part movable relative to the primary part.
