Machining tool comprising a frame in which a drive shaft for a tool is mounted so as to pivot about a rotation axis and to move axially along the rotation axis. The shaft is connected to two rotary motors, namely a first motor connected to a member for meshing with a fluted portion of the shaft in order to drive the shaft in rotation and a second motor connected to a nut engaged with a threaded portion of the shaft in order to move the shaft axially. The motors are connected to at least one control unit designed to control the motors independently of one another, and the first motor and the second motor are coaxial with one another.

Provided is a control device for a machine tool that can suitably shred chips in a state without good conformability. A control device for a machine tool which oscillates a tool and a workpiece relative to each other while machining comprises: a comparison unit that compares the oscillation amplitude calculated value calculated by an oscillation amplitude calculation unit and the oscillation amplitude minimum value set by a minimum value setting unit; an oscillation command generation unit that generates an oscillation command on the basis of the oscillation condition and the value of the oscillation amplitude obtained from the comparison results of the comparison unit; and a position/speed control unit that oscillates the workpiece and the tool relative to each other on the basis of a superimposition command obtained by superimposing the oscillation command over a position command.

A numerical value controller includes a storage unit that stores a machining program involving executing a plurality of canned cycles each including a first operation for positioning a drilling position of a workpiece relative to a tool, a second operation for moving the tool from a return point to a hole bottom point, and a third operation for moving the tool from the hole bottom point to the return point; a control unit that controls movement between the tool and the workpiece based on the machining program and that moves the tool along curved paths by starting the second operation before the first operation ends and starting the first operation in a subsequent canned cycle before the third operation ends; a distance calculating unit that calculates a retraction distance; and a curvature calculating unit that reads a positioning command for the drilling position for the subsequent canned cycle.
