Abstract
The turret for machine tools has a turret disk which is rotatable via a gear unit and can be positioned in determined rotational angle positions, wherein the gear unit also serves to drive a tool drive shaft. A plurality of tool holding devices are provided on the turret disk so as to be distributed on the circumference including a base part and a tool holder which is displaceable relative to the base part vertically relative to the turret axis and adjustable. A feed gear unit is provided in the base part for the tool holder, wherein the feed gear unit can be coupled with the tool drive shaft. The tool holder and accordingly the tool carried by it can accordingly be adjusted in the radial direction. A fixedly arranged tool holder is provided with another tool at the turret disk, so that two parallel surfaces can be machined simultaneously by means of the two tools, wherein the opposite feed movements are effected by means of the carriage carrying the turret on the one hand and by means of the tool holding device on the other hand.
