Abstract
Various embodiments relate to a machine tool, in particular for the robot-assisted machining of workpieces. The machine tool comprises a drive and a first shaft with a mounting point for a first tool and a second shaft with a mounting point for a second tool. The drive is coupled to the first shaft directly or indirectly via a first freewheel coupling and to the second shaft directly or indirectly via a second freewheel coupling such that the drive drives the first or second shaft on the basis of the rotational direction. The invention additionally relates to a corresponding method for the robot-assisted machining of a workpiece using machine tool.
Claims9
A machine tool for machining on a workpiece, the machine tool comprising:
- a support;
- a first shaft mounted on the support and comprising a holder for a first tool;
- a second shaft mounted on the support and comprising a holder for a second tool;
- a first element asymmetrically protruding from the second shaft;
- and
- a second element which is unmovable with respect to the support and which is configured to hold the first element and the second shaft in a reference position when the second shaft is not being actively driven;
- and
- a first drive shaft directly or indirectly mechanically coupled to the first shaft by a first freewheeling clutch and directly or indirectly mechanically coupled to the second shaft by a second freewheeling clutch,
- wherein the first shaft and the second shaft are located coaxially to the first drive shaft.
