MANUFACTURING SYSTEM
A manufacturing system including a base and multiple work machine modules that are arranged in an arrangement direction on base to be attachable to and detachable from base, in which one wheel of a pair provided on work machine module is engaged with one rail of a pair provided on base in a state in which positional deviation in the arrangement direction is prohibited, and the other wheel of the pair is engaged with the other rail of the pair in a state in which positional deviation is permitted in the arrangement direction, thereby the position of work machine modules on the base in the arrangement direction is specified, and work machine modules are fixed at a setting position on the base to be restricted so as to be drawn toward the base by a module fixing mechanism that is provided on the base.
MACHINE TOOL HOLDER, METHOD AND COMPUTER PROGRAM FOR OPERATING A MACHINE TOOL HAVING SUCH A MACHINE TOOL HOLDER
The invention relates to a machine tool cocoon (10) for receiving a workpiece, having a base element (18) on which the workpiece can be disposed, wherein the base element (18) comprises at least one receptacle (47) for receiving and fixing a workpiece (40), and a support device (11) separably connected to the base element (18). The machine tool cocoon (10) can be positioned on a tool position of a tool changing system by means of the support device (11). The invention further relates to a method and a computer program.

AUTOMATIC FIXTURE REPLACEMENT MECHANISM FOR MACHINE TOOL
Automatic fixture replacement mechanism for machine tool, wherein includes multiple sets of fixtures for installing work pieces to be processed and a movable manipulator for loading fixture; the movable manipulator is installed on a two-dimensional movable mechanism; the movable manipulator is provided with a pull nail that is fastened to the clamp and the fixture is provided with a pin hole matching with the pin. For batch processing of a large number of work pieces with multiple fixtures, the use of movable manipulator to automatically install and unload fixtures can greatly improve the efficiency of processing. The structure of the mechanism and the operation are simple so that it is reliable and easy to be implemented. Hence, it can be widely used in various types of CNC machining centers.
WOOD-PROCESSING SYSTEM AND WOOD-PROCESSING METHOD
A wood-processing system having a buffer, which receives and buffers planar workpieces of wood materials or wood substitute materials, and a deposit device, onto which workpieces removed from the buffer can be deposited. At least one robot is included to remove the workpieces from the buffer and to deposit said workpieces on a deposit element of the deposit device and/or at another deposit location in the buffer. The system can be operated continuously, with workpieces being loaded sequentially into the buffer, removed from the buffer by the robot, and sorted onto the deposit device.
CUTTING MACHINE
A cutting machine includes a processing chamber provided with a cutting device to cut a cutting object retained by an adaptor, a cleaning chamber provided with a cleaning device to clean the adaptor, and a conveyor to convey the adaptor to the processing chamber and the cleaning chamber.
Universal machining apparatus and control system
A universal machining system capable of accommodating multiple small-batch or one-off machining jobs, involving workpieces of different diameter and composition, comprises a rotating chuck having multiple jaws that may be adjusted positionally inward or outward towards the longitudinal centerline of the workpiece or removed entirely, and a tool turret capable of holding a variety of socketed tools. System also comprises a measurement sensor, which may be separate or comprise one of the socketed tools. A control program collects machining instructions for a series of workpieces, and directs the chuck, the tool turret, the measurement sensor, and at least one robot to load/unload workpieces and tools from the chuck and turret, respectively, measure workpieces and tools for quality control, and track available storage, overriding or skipping individual machining instructions as dictated by safety parameters and the availability of raw materials and tools.
TRAY AND MAGAZINE FOR HANDLING PROFILES
