A movable stand with casters for installing each of a plurality of separate type control panels that correspond to a plurality of machine tools disposed in parallel and are disposed to be separated from the machine tools, is provide. The stand includes a top plate sections on which the separate type control panel is installed, a plurality of leg sections that support the top plate section, and horizontal sections that are provided to attach the casters to bottom sections of the leg sections and are horizontal to a floor, in which, out of the horizontal sections, a height from the floor of one horizontal section is different from a height from the floor of another horizontal section.

An apparatus for the processing of wire and/or tubular components includes a base member and at least two wire/tube processing modules. The modules can be releasably engaged with each other and the base member in which engagement mechanically and electrically couples the modules and the base member. The base member includes an operator interface enabling operation to any linked module.

The present invention relates to a transport device (100) for transporting one or more handling devices, each for handling a pallet (300) and/or a workpiece (1) on a machine tool (1000) which is set up on a base surface for machining the workpiece (1), wherein the transport device (100) is freely movable on the base surface for positioning the one or more handling devices relative to the machine tool (1000), in particular within a region in front and/or next to the machine tool (1000) and/or in front and/or next to a working space of the machine tool (1000).

Work cell (10), comprising a support frame (11) inside which at least one working plane (12) is obtained on which the objects to be worked are placed and at least one automatic operator device (13) configured to perform the workings on said objects.

A machine base for use in a machining system is provided. The machine base includes at least one work piece holder device receiving section having a work piece holder device interface, which includes an aligning device adapted for receiving the work piece holder device aligned on a z-axis. The machine base further includes at least one first machining unit receiving section provided with a first machining unit interface adapted for receiving a first machining unit including a first tool holder interface, and at least one second machining unit receiving section provided with a second machining unit interface adapted for receiving a second machining unit including a second tool holder interface. The first and second machining unit interfaces are arranged on opposing first and second sides of the work piece holder device interface and are movable at least along the x-axis or y-axis, respectively.
