Machining center

A machining center comprising:

• a machine bed having
• a top surface,
• a bottom surface that is opposite to said top surface,
• a machining zone that is defined between said top and bottom surfaces,
• a transferring zone that is defined between said top and bottom surfaces, said machining zone and said transferring zone being arranged in a first direction, and
• a gate that is disposed between said machining and transferring zones;
• a work table unit mounted in said machining zone of said machine bed;
• a sliding unit mounted to said top surface, being slidable along a first sliding axis which extends in the first direction, and including a tool spindle that is movably disposed above said work table unit;
• a first driving unit mounted in said transferring zone and extending in the first direction;
• a conveying member disposed between said first driving unit and said bottom surface of said machine bed, and movably mounted to said first driving unit;
• a second driving unit co-movably mounted to said conveying member;
• and
• a loading seat movably mounted to said second driving unit;
• wherein said first driving unit is operable for driving said conveying member to move along a conveying axis which extends in the first direction, thereby driving said loading seat to move along first adjusting axes which extend in the first direction between said transferring and machining zones via said gate;
• and
• wherein said second driving unit is operable for driving said loading seat to move along second adjusting axes which extend in a second direction, which are perpendicular to the first direction, and which are substantially vertical.
