Abstract
A multispindle machine for drilling, milling or the like of workpieces has several spindles mounted on at least one crossbeam rail (4), and the workpieces and spindles can be displaced relative to one another along X and/or Y coordinates. To minimize machining time, each crossbeam rail mounts at least two spindles (3) which are displaceably independently of one another in the long direction or X coordinate of the crossbeam rail (4).
Claims20
Multispindle machine for drilling, milling or the like on workpieces, comprising at least one crossbeam rail, at least two spindles mounted on the crossbeam rail, means for supporting workpieces for moving at least one of the spindles and the workpiece relative to one another along and X coordinate and along a Y coordinate perpendicular to the X coordinate, wherein the improvement comprises that each said crossbeam rail (4) is elongated in the direction of the X coordinate, and said at least two spindles (3) are displaceable independently of one another in the elongated direction of the crossbeam rail, and at least one of said spindles (3) on each said crossbeam rail is displaceable relative to said crossbeam rail transversely of the elongated direction of said crossbeam rail (4).
