Abstract
The present invention provides for a frame construction which comprises frames wherein a machining tool and functional devices for making the tool operate are mounted on separate frames, and the respective frames can run independently. The present invention also provides a machining device which utilizes the aforementioned frame construction so that machining accuracy can be maintained irrespective of the weight of the functional devices mounted on the frame.
