Machine tool and workpiece processing system

A workpiece processing system comprising:

• a plurality of machine tools, each of the machine tools, including:
• a plurality of modules each having a workpiece holder that holds a workpiece and an operation part holder that holds an operation part for performing a predetermined operation to the workpiece held by the workpiece holder, the workpiece holder and the operation part holder being integrally provided;
• and
• a bed on which each of the modules is installed, wherein
• the modules include a movable module and an opposite module disposed to face the movable module,
• the workpiece is processed while being transferred between the movable module and the opposite module,
• a recess is provided next to the opposite module, the recess being formed by cutting out the bed,
• the movable module is movable to be aligned with the opposite module,
• the movable module is provided to be movable to face the recess,
• the plurality of the machine tools is arranged in parallel such that the recess is provided therebetween, and
• the movable module is commonly used as a movable module for one of the machine tools and as a movable module for another of the machine tools.
