Machine tool and method for machining workpieces, in particular metal workpieces

摘要

The machine has tool spindle (12) for retaining a rotating machining tool (30) and two workpiece holders (34,50) for retaining two workpieces. Both workpiece holders (34,50) are relatively moveable to each other, to transfer a workpiece (44) from one workpiece holder to another workpiece holder. Another tool spindle (14) is provided for retaining another rotating machining tool (32). The latter tool spindle is relatively moveable to the latter workpiece holder, to work on the latter workpiece. An independent claim is also included for a method for machine cutting treatment of workpieces in particular of metallic workpieces.
