Abstract
The invention relates to machines and methods for the separative machining of a plate-shaped workpieces. The machine includes a first movement device for moving the workpiece in a first direction (X), a second movement device for moving a machining head, which directs the machining beam onto the workpiece, along a second direction (Y), Between workpiece bearing faces there is formed a gap for the passage of the machining beam. In the machine, mutually facing side edges of at least two of the workpiece bearing faces are oriented non-perpendicularly and non-parallel with respect to the first direction (X).
Claims16
A machine for the separative machining of a plate-shaped workpiece by a processing beam, the machine comprising:
- a machining head configured to direct the processing beam onto the plate-shaped workpiece;
- a first movement device configured to bidirectionally move the plate-shaped workpiece in a first direction (X);
- a second movement device configured to bidirectionally move the machining head in a second direction (Y);
- and
- at least two workpiece support units including at least two workpiece bearing faces for supporting the workpiece, a gap configured for the passage of the processing beam being formed between the workpiece bearing faces,
- wherein mutually facing side edges of at least two of the workpiece bearing faces are oriented non-perpendicularly and non-parallel with respect to the first direction (X).
