Machine tool

Abstract

High precision machining is enabled by eliminating the need for a conventional swiveling table, and by enhancing rigidity for supporting a work by relatively reducing the distance from the top surface of a stationary body section () to the position for machining a work by means of a tool on a rotary spindle (). A pair of guide tracks () respectively passing two positions separated in the X axis direction of the stationary body section () and in the Z axis direction intersecting the X axis direction perpendicularly are allowed to guide feed tables () to be movable independently. A support/feed/turn output member () is latched to bridge the feed tables () on the guide tracks (), one feed table () and the support/feed/turn output member () are coupled to rotate relatively about a line in the Y axis direction which intersects perpendicularly both the X axis direction and the Z axis direction, the other feed table () and the support/feed/turn output member () are coupled to rotate relatively about a line in the Y axis direction and to displace relatively in a specific direction related to the positions of the both feed tables (), and a means () for regulating relative displacement in the specific direction is provided additionally.
