Abstract
A compact machine tool for automatically interchanging two gang heads mounted at the front end of a machining unit. The machine tool includes a horizontally movable tool support, a revolving body mounted above the tool support and rotatable about a first horizontal axis, a tiltable body capable of angularly moving about a second horizontal axis perpendicular to the first horizontal axis, and a gang head magazine. The revolving body is so rotated as to interchange the two gang heads respectively placed in an upper position and a lower position. The magazine has a rotary body for moving plural gang heads within a horizontal plane so that they may be successively placed in a front position.
