A tool changing system for chip forming machine tools is described which with a simple construction ensures a tool change both in conjunction with horizontal spindles and vertical spindles and also spindles which adopt intermediate positions, which minimizes the flight circle or disturbing circle and ensures short change times. This tool changing system includes a double grasper arrangement which is linearly movable by means of a transport device, which can execute pivotal movements over different angular ranges and which has grasper arms which are directed parallel to the pivot axle of the double grasper arrangement and are symmetrically displaced relative to one another in two perpendicular directions relative to the pivot axle, with each grasper arm being adjustable perpendicular to its longitudinal extent over a predeterminable stroke. |
