A tool-changing mechanism for machine tools of the kind in which tools can be inserted into a spindle. A tool magazine receives several tools and a double-ended tool-changing arm is provided on each of its two ends with gripping mechanisms. The tool-changing arm is rotatable about an axis of rotation which is parallel to the spindle axis and the tool-changing arm can be moved along the direction of its axis of rotation. The tool-changing arm can also be pivoted, between a working position and a rest position, about a pivot axis which is parallel to its axis of rotation. |
