摘要:
A compact, multiple spindle computer-controlled machine tool is disclosed. The machine may have a spindle base with two spindles (422, 424) disposed vertically relative to one another along an axis, the spindles having parallel axes of rotation. The spindle base may be computer controlled and have z and x axis motion relative to a tool post (432). The tool post (432) may have a tool turret (430) and may provide computer-controlled y axis motion so that the tool turret may be utilized with both spindles. The tool post may also have a machining unit that may be used to machine workpieces held by either spindle.
