A machine tool capable of reducing the lateral width of the upper part thereof by reducing the lateral width of a bed (1) while maintaining the laterally moving distance of a spindle (10) at a same one as before, comprising a longitudinal guide rail (2) installed on the bed (1), a slide (3) installed through the guide rail (2) movably in longitudinal direction, a column (6) installed on the slide (3) movably in lateral direction, and the spindle (10) installed in the column (6) movably in vertical direction, wherein first cover plates (25) are fixed to the right and left sides of a vertical moving route for the spindle (10), side cover plates (26) are installed continuously with the outer end edges of the first cover plates (25) so as to be bendable rearward, a second cover plate (32) is installed at the front sides of the first cover plates (25) and the side cover plates (26) integrally with the slide (3) so as to cover the front side of the moving range of the column (6), and a shield machining space (SK) is formed at the front of the second cover plate (32).
