Machine-tool, for high speed milling of superimposed plates, comprises three dimensional tool movement, blank grip, blank grip support and articulated suspending rods, support jacks and guides

摘要

Miller (6) is able to move in 3 dimensions using slides (7,8,12) and is surrounded by blank grip skate (14). Skate is able to move vertically controlled by guide rods (19) and actuated by jacks (15) which are attached to blank grip support (13). Support (13) is normally locked (20) and is suspended by articulated rods (17) such that when jacks operate and lock is freed, work is gripped but tool continues to finish bridge.
