Abstract
Provided is a machine tool with a machine rack constructed of structural parts and components mounted thereon, the components including functional components. The functional components generate heat during the operation of the machine tool which is input into the structural parts and/or the components by heat transport. The machine tool may also include a flow channel system disposed on the structural parts and/or the components of the machine tool in which a tempering medium is circulated such that the heat generated by the functional components is distributed in the machine rack and/or the components as a result of the passage of the tempering medium.
Claims20
A machine tool comprising:
- a machine rack constructed of structural parts that have components mounted thereon, wherein the components include functional components configured to generate heat during operation of the machine tool which is input into the structural parts and/or the components by heat transport;
- and
- a flow channel system having first and second flow channels:
- wherein the flow channel system is disposed in first areas and second areas spaced from the first areas on the structural parts and/or the components of the machine tool wherein a heat input into the second areas generated by the functional components is less than a heat input into the first areas and a liquid is circulated in the flow channel system such that the heat generated by the functional components is distributed in the machine rack and/or the components as a result of passage of the liquid so as to equalize the temperature gradient in the machine tool exclusively by circulating the liquid in the flow channel system, and
- wherein the flow channels of the flow channel system are hollow profiles and said hollow profiles are disposed directly on a surface of the components of the machine tool.
