The machining station now proposed presents a specific structural arrangement, enables the incorporation, contrary to already existing stations, of an axis dedicated to deep drilling, favoring the use of deep drill tools under ideal conditions, without size restriction. Accordingly, the station is comprised of an operating base, on which there lays an operating module and an arrangement module. This new arrangement for the machining station is therefore more versatile and adaptable to the specificities programmed for each part to be machined. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A machining station comprising: an operating base on which there are mounted, an operating module and an arrangement module, separated by a support structure; wherein: the operating base comprises a set of displacement guides; the operating module comprises an operating table installed on a rotating block, rotating block which is mounted on at least a displacement guide of the operating base (2); the arrangement module comprises a curtain which is coupled to the support structure, an arrangement window installed on the curtain, said arrangement window having coupled a drill arm which is installed on a mechanical support which in turn is mounted on at least a displacement guide of the operating base; said drill arm comprising a drive unit which moves inside said arm; the operation of the drive unit and respective drill arm, as well as the movements of the rotating block, of the curtain and of the mechanical support are controlled by way of a central control unit endowed with processing capacity. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The station according to claim 1, wherein the displacement guides of the operating base are installed on plane ZX. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The station, according to claim 1, wherein the rotating block of the operating table, is adapted to provide the operating table with a rotational movement of 360° over plane XZ, and of 135° over plane YZ, and a linear movement along axis Z, by action of the displacement guides of the operating base. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The station according to claim 3, wherein the movements of the operating block are driven by a mechanical system. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The station according to claim 1, wherein the curtain has linear movements along of axes X and Y. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The station according to claim 1, wherein the mechanical support has installed on its body at least a displacement guide where the drill arm is installed. ### Claim 7 (depends on 5) The station according to claim 5, wherein at least a displacement guide is installed along axis Y. ### Claim 8 (depends on 5) The station according to claim 5, wherein at least a displacement guide of the operating base where the mechanical support is mounted, is disposed on axis X. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The station according to claim 1, wherein the drive unit of the drill arm moves inside said arm, along axis W, parallel to axis Z. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The station according to claim 1, wherein the drill arm comprises a door, to enable access for an operator to change the drill tool, said door adapted to prevent liquids used during machining from passing to the arrangement module of the station; coupling mechanisms for installing the drill tool supports. ### Claim 11 (depends on 1) The station according to claim 1, wherein the arrangement window comprises at least a drain outlet. ### Claim 12 (depends on 11) The station according to claim 11, wherein the drill arm is formed by a slanted drill base such that liquids used during machining return to the operating module by way of the drain outlets of the arrangement window. ### Claim 13 (depends on 1) The station according to claim 1, comprising a filter unit arranged to clean and filter the liquids used during machining.
