Machine tool

A machine tool comprising a spindle with a tool attached to, and a table configured to support a machining object, the machine tool configured to perform machining to the machining object by the tool while relatively moving the spindle and the table, the machine tool comprising:

• a chip antiscatter mechanism configured to suppress scattering of chips generated from the machining object by the machining,
• the chip antiscatter mechanism including:
• a chip stirrer configured to stir the chips, by jetting a gas into a dry machining region above the table, the dry machining region including the machining object;
• a fluid curtain forming nozzle configured to form a fluid curtain by jetting a fluid liquid or gas membranously from above to an outside of the dry machining region so as to surround the dry machining region, and to form a closed region by the membranous fluid curtain, the closed region including the dry machining region;
• a discharger including a discharging path having a flow path opening, and configured such that the fluid jetted membranously by the fluid supply directly enters the flow path opening and passes through the discharging path so as to be discharged;
• a cylindrical inner enclosure arranged to extend upward from an upper surface of the table so as to surround the machining object, an inside of the inner enclosure is the dry machining region;
• and
• a cylindrical outer enclosure arranged to extend upward from the upper surface of the table, so as to surround the inner enclosure and to form a space, and the space between the inner enclosure and the outer enclosure is the discharging path configured to receive and discharge the fluid jetted membranously.
