Machine tool for wood, plastics or the like

摘要

A machine tool for machining workpieces formed of wood, synthetic plastic materials and the like is disclosed, including a transport device mounted on a frame for transporting the workpiece relative to at least one laterally arranged workpiece, and a sound damping cover unit arranged laterally of the tool for partially surrounding the round radiating region of the tool or the workpiece, characterized in that the sound damping cover unit includes a plurality of pivotally connected sound damping members that are displaceable between retracted position and extended positions above and/or below the plane of movement of the workpiece. One end of the damping cover unit is connected with a supporting frame that contains a receiving space for receiving the damping cover unit when in the retracted position. When in the extended position, the free end of the sound dampening cover unit extends above and/or below the workpiece and terminates adjacent the free end of a corresponding sound damping cover unit connected with the opposite side of the machine frame.
