A lathe is provided that can produce complex shapes. The lathe includes a turret movement system with a B axis, which can be activated by a control. The turret axis may be designed as an H axis, which extends in a place at right angles to the B axis and can be activated by the control.

Machine tool

The invention provides a tool support for machine tools comprising a base unit, a holding member arranged on the base unit and two supporting surfaces extending at an acute angle to one another arranged on the holding member for supporting a tool holder in first and second supporting areas. A clamping device acts on a clamping member of the tool holder such that the tool holder acts upon the supporting surfaces with the two supporting areas. The clamping element may be mounted in the holding member for rotation about an axis and bear a wedge surface movable around the axis for acting on the clamping member. The wedge surface of the clamping element may engage over the clamping member proceeding from an insert position during the rotation of the clamping element in a first direction of rotation and displace the clamping member increasingly in the clamping direction.

Tool holder for machine tools and tool system for machine tools

In order to improve a tool support for tool holders of rotationally driven tools which can be driven via a gear wheel arranged on one side of the tool holder and mounted for rotation about a gear wheel axis, comprising a receiving means provided on the tool support for at least one tool holder and a first toothed ring provided on the tool support it is suggested that a second toothed ring movable about the toothed ring axis so as to turn on a second path be provided on the tool support, that the second path have a second area of engagement nearest to the gear wheel axis for a gear wheel on the tool holder side, this area of engagement extending at a greater radial distance from the gear wheel axis that the first area of engagement and being located closer to the tool holder in the direction of the gear wheel axis than the first area of engagement.
