<p>A machine tool capable of in-machine measurement of workpiece dimensions while achieving size reduction of the machine tool and prolonged life of a sensor. The machine tool machines a workpiece held at a spindle and comprises: a turret tool post having tool holding faces; a support strut mounted on one of the tool holding faces and extending radially of the turret tool post; a sensor fixed to a head portion of the support strut and measuring the dimensions of a workpiece; and a first cover piece and a second cover piece supported by a base portion of the support strut. The first cover piece and the second cover piece are capable of opening and closing circumferentially of the turret tool post, and cover the support strut and the sensor when closed.</p> |
