Abstract
A machine tool comprises a first travelling assembly () which carries in its turn a second travelling assembly (). The first assembly () is adapted to position the second assembly () in a relatively wide space (S) and with movements at relatively low speeds and accelerations. The second assembly () carries in its turn a tool which is provided with actuators for positioning the tool in a relatively narrow space (S) and with movements at relatively high speeds and accelerations. The machine includes means for controlling the movements of the two assemblies () which are so arranged to obtain s global movement of the tool without solutions of continuity in all the space of movement (S) of the first assembly (). The invention also relates to a manipulator device which can be used independently or be installed as a second assembly () on a travelling structure of a machine tool.
