Method of performing several machining steps on workpieces and machining module system for carrying out the method

摘要

With a method of performing several machining steps on workpieces, a solution is to be provided which makes possible the greatest possible productivity with optimum utilisation of the requisite machining equipment, in the course of which only a minimum number of operating and monitoring personnel is required to carry out the machining. This is achieved in that the machining modules (1) required for the machining steps desired in each case are selected from a multiplicity of machining modules (1) carrying out in each case at least one machining step and are connected in series in the appropriate sequence to form a system (14), each machining module (1a) being connected to the respectively adjacent machining module (1b) via a separate attachable feed device (3) for the workpiece (12), and the feed device (3) being driven by a central drive (15). <IMAGE>
