PURPOSE:To simplify control for assembling and disassembling a modular tool by providing the tool assembly device wherein a space between a retaining arm for holding the tool and a connection drive device is made equal to a space between the connection edge of a module and a connection part. CONSTITUTION:An old modular tool 11 exchanged between a main spindle 2 and a tool magazine 4 shifts to a tool assembly position, thereby being opposed to a tool automatic assembly device 6. In this stage, an assembly device 34 advances, the circular groove 24 of a cutter part module 14 is held with a retaining arm 35 and the connection of the tightened part 23 of an adapter module 13 is released with a nut runner 36. Similarly, the connection 23 of a holder module 12 is furthermore released and the modular tool 11 is disassembled. Then, the modular tool 11 is assembled in a sequence reverse to the aforesaid process. In this case, a space (b) between the retaining arm 35 and the nut runner 36 is set to be equal to a space (a) between connection edges 12a and 13a, and the connection part 23. According to the aforesaid system, the modular tool 11 can be disassembled and assembled automatically. Also, the control of disassembly and assembly becomes easy and a device can be simplified. |
