MACHINE TOOL HAVING A LOADING AND UNLOADING DEVICE

摘要

The invention relates to a machine tool (10) for machining workpieces (P), wherein the machine tool (10) has at least one first spindle assembly with at least one working spindle (24) on which a machining tool (25) for workpiece machining is arrangeable, wherein the machine tool (10) has a workpiece holding device (50) for holding workpieces (P) for the purpose of workpiece machining by way of the machining tool (25), wherein the machine tool (10) has a guide arrangement (30) for the relative positioning of the workpiece holding device (50) holding the workpieces (P) and the first spindle assembly (21) for workpiece machining, wherein the guide arrangement (30) comprises a workpiece-holder guide (59, 62) for guiding the workpiece holding device (50) so as to position a workpiece holder (51) holding the workpieces (P) relative to the first spindle assembly (21). In the machine tool (10), provision is made for said machine tool to have a workpiece changing device (90), in particular a working robot (91), for exchanging workpieces (P) on the workpiece holding device (50), said workpiece changing device (90) participating in a positioning movement of the workpiece holder (51) during workpiece machining by the particular machining tool (25), and being configured to exchange at least one workpiece (P) that is on the workpiece holder (51) and is not currently being machined while another workpiece (P) held by the workpiece holder (51) is being machined by the first spindle assembly (21).
