A machining device with tools is provided on a plane that is substantially perpendicular to the movement direction of the workpieces, the machining device being spatially aligned with the workpiece on the perpendicular plane. The machining device includes partial circle segments which are arranged on perpendicular planes that can be adjusted relative to one another and on the partial circle arc of which the tools are arranged in a movable manner. Each of the individual partial circle segments can be moved in the X, Y, and Z direction. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A device for machining rod-shaped workpieces such as window profiles or door profiles, which are movable by means of a transportation device in at least one horizontal plane, and wherein a machining device having tools, which is spatially aligned in the perpendicular plane in relation to the workpiece, is provided in a plane arranged substantially perpendicularly to the movement direction of the workpieces, wherein the machining device comprises partial circle segments and, which are arranged in adjustable planes perpendicular to one another, and on the partial circle arcs and of which the tools are movably arranged, and the individual partial circle segments, are each movable in the X, Y, and Z directions. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The device as claimed in claim 1, that wherein one partial circle segment is arranged on a movable column and the other partial circle segment is movably arranged in a gantry. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the partial circle segments and are each arranged to complete a circular ring adjacent to the transportation device for the rod-shaped workpiece. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the partial circle segment arranged on the gantry is arranged on a circular arc dimension section which extends between the circle angles of approximately 135° to 315° or from 20° to 200°, wherein the partial circle segment arranged on the column is correspondingly arranged opposite in completion of the circular ring. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein a movable carriage, on which a motor and the machining tools are arranged, is arranged on each of the partial circle segments. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein means for formfitting with the motor are provided on the outer lateral arc (19) of the partial circle segments. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein a toothed belt (20), which interacts with a gearwheel arranged on a motor axis, is preferably arranged on each of the outer lateral arcs (19). ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the motor axis is arranged having the gearwheel perpendicular to the partial circular segment. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein contact pressure rollers and are supported on the carriage for the toothed belt (20) respectively in front of and behind the gearwheel. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the tools designed as milling cutters or drills are arranged on the carriage. ### Claim 11 (depends on 1) The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the tools are movable or displaceable on the carriage in relation to the center axis.
