Abstract
The machine tool includes a saddle, a table which moves relative to the saddle, a telescopic cover fixed to the saddle, and a wiper fixed to the table. The telescopic cover protects a guide member which supports the saddle in such a manner as to be capable of moving with respect to the bed. When chips generated by the working of a workpiece placed on the table have deposited on the surface of the telescopic cover, the wiper fixed to the table removes the chips by the movement of the table and causes the chips to fall.
