A machine tool having a vertical main spindle and a method of making the same
摘要
<p>A machine having a vertical main spindle include a bed having a bottom portion and a pair of walls arranged uprightly from both ends of the bottom portion, the sidewalls having horizontal upper mounting surfaces thereon. A first slider is slidably horizontally mounted on the upper mounting surfaces for movement along a first axis. A second slider is slidably horizontally mounted on the first slider and guided by a pair of guide rails arranged on the first slider for movement along a second axis perpendicular to the first axis. A jig apparatus is mounted on the bed for clamping a workpiece at a position lower than the first slider. A spindle head that vertically supports a main spindle is mounted on the second slider so that the main spindle is moved along the third axis perpendicular to the fist and second axes between the guide rails. <IMAGE></p>
