To provide a rotary table device that can prevent the occurrence of malfunction before it happens. A rotary table device equipped with both or one of a clamping mechanism and purge mechanism which operate by way of working fluid, the rotary table device including: a detection unit that detects a pressure or flow rate of the working fluid; a transition information storage unit that acquires and stores transition information related to transition of a pressure value or flow rate value of the working fluid detected by the detection unit; a judgment value storage unit that stores in advance a plurality of sets of judgment value information related to judgment values for judging a pressure value or flow rate value of the working fluid; and a notification unit that notifies of notification information according to the pressure value or flow rate value of the working fluid, based on the transition information stored in the transition information storage unit and the plurality of sets of judgment value information stored in the judgment value storage unit.

A saw may include a housing, a motor assembly, a fan and a baffle. The motor assembly may be disposed within the housing and may include a driveshaft that is rotatable relative to the housing. The fan may be attached to a first end portion of the driveshaft for rotation with the driveshaft. The baffle may be disposed within the housing and may include a recess and a chute in communication with the recess. The fan may be disposed within the recess and may force air through the recess and into the chute. The chute may extend tangentially from a body of the baffle and may include a shape that curves around a rotational axis of the fan as the chute curves away from a plane in which the fan rotates.

An object is to provide a nozzle controller which can constantly cool a tool in a machine tool. A nozzle controller of a machine tool includes: a tool which is gripped in a spindle of the machine tool; a nozzle in which the angle and/or the position thereof with respect to the tool can be changed and which emits a fluid to the tool; a nozzle drive unit which drives the angle and/or the position of the nozzle; a contact acquisition unit which acquires contact between the tool and a work; and a control unit which controls the nozzle drive unit. The control unit calculates, when the contact acquisition unit acquires the contact, based on a length of the tool and a stroke of a feed axis in the direction of the spindle, the angle and/or the position of the nozzle such that the fluid emitted from the nozzle hits a side surface of the tool, and controls the nozzle drive unit based on the result of the calculation.

A machine tool is provided which can execute various works while suppressing increase in cost or size. The machine tool includes a tool spindle device which is a movable member which can move with respect to a mounting surface of the machine tool, and one or more serial-manipulator-type robots attached on the tool spindle device, which can move with the tool spindle device, and which have two or more degrees of freedom, and the robot includes two or more end effectors provided at positions different from each other with one or more joints therebetween.

A cleaning method allows reliable cleaning of thread roots of a female screw. A cleaning method for a female screw includes producing a jet of a cleaning liquid from a nozzle in a direction tilted from an axis of the female screw without inserting the nozzle in the female screw, and directing the jet to impinge on a thread of the female screw while rotating the jet about the axis.

The machine tool includes a tool post linearly movable along a direction parallel to an X axis and a direction parallel to a Z axis, a workpiece spindle which retains a workpiece in a condition rotatable about an axis parallel to the Z axis, and an in-machine robot which is installed in a machining chamber and has joints. The joints of the in-machine robot include a base joint rotatable about an axis parallel to the Z axis, and three parallel joints rotatable about an axis orthogonal to the axis of rotation of the base joint, the parallel joints being located on a distal end side of the base joint and successively arranged from the base joint. The axis of rotation of the base joint is displaced from that of the workpiece spindle.

A swarf-guiding device guides stringy swarf continuously generated from a cut point. The swarf-guiding device includes a jet nozzle that jets coolant, a nozzle-holding device that holds the jet nozzle such that a position and an orientation of the jet nozzle are changeable, and a controller that controls the nozzle-holding device such that the coolant hits the stringy swarf at a downstream position from a cut point in a tool-feeding direction.

According to one implementation, an attachment for a machining apparatus includes: a copying guide in a machining apparatus side and an air supply passage. The copying guide has a through hole for passing a tool through. The copying guide is contacted to a copying mold placed in a workpiece side. The copying guide is attached to a spindle holding and rotating the tool. The air supply passage is adapted to supply air ejected toward the workpiece side through a clearance between the tool and the through hole.

A machine tool that cuts a workpiece by a rotary tool includes a tool spindle device that holds the rotary tool in a manner to allow self-rotation with a predefined tool rotational axis Rt as a center, one or more in-machine robots, and a connecting mechanism that attaches the in-machine robot on the tool spindle device so that the in-machine robot moves independently from the rotary tool at a periphery of the tool spindle device with the tool rotational axis Rt as a center.
