Abstract
A machine tool includes a turret device, a turret slide device configured to slide the turret device along a turret slide axis, a tool spindle device, a tool spindle slide device configured to slide the tool spindle device along a tool spindle slide axis, a numerical control device configured to numerically control the turret slide device and the tool spindle slide device, and a programmable logic controller (PLC) connected to the numerical control device. When control of the turret slide axis for sliding the turret device and control of the tool spindle slide axis for sliding the tool spindle device are switched, the numerical control device shifts the control of the turret slide axis and the control of the tool spindle slide axis by changing a value of a predetermined device in the PLC.
