Abstract
For machining a workpiece the workpiece is fixed in a first gripping device of a machining device in order to make at least one element. Next the workpiece is transferred to the second gripping device of the machining device, where the workpiece is fixed by means of the element in the second gripping device of the machining device, while the first gripping device remains connected to the machining device. The element comprises a dovetail-shaped mounting element.

Method for machining a workpiece, wherein the workpiece is fixed in a first gripping device of a machining device for making at least one element, after which the workpiece is transferred to a second gripping device of the machining device, wherein by means of the element the workpiece is fixed in the second gripping device of the machining device, while the first gripping device remains connected to the machining device, characterized in that the first and second gripping devices are located on different sides of a gripping table that is swiveling about a swivel axle, which gripping table is at least swiveling from a first position, in which the workpiece that is fixed in the first gripping device can be machined for making in the workpiece the element that comprises a dovetail-shaped mounting element, towards a second position in which the workpiece that is fixed in the second gripping device by means of the dovetail-shaped mounting element can be machined, and vice versa.
Machining device for machining a workpiece, which machining device is provided with at least a first gripping device that is suited for fixing a workpiece that is to be provided with an element, which machining device is further provided with a second gripping device that is suited for fixing the workpiece by means of the gripping element, characterized in that the machining device is provided with at least one tool for making the element comprising a dovetail-shaped mounting element in the workpiece fixed in the first gripping device, the first and second gripping devices being located on different sides of a gripping table that is swiveling about a swivel axle, which gripping table is at least swiveling from a first position, in which the workpiece that is fixed in the first gripping device can be machined for making the dovetail-shaped mounting element in the workpiece, towards a second position in which the workpiece that is fixed in the second gripping device can be machined with the tool, and vice versa.
