A machine tool system includes a machine tool including a processor to process a workpiece with a tool, and a bed on which the processor is mounted, a transport apparatus including two, left and right, legs spaced apart from the bed to transport the workpiece and feed the workpiece to the processor or discharge the workpiece from the processor, and a plate that connects the bed to the legs and is elastically deformable. The plate is upright such that a plate surface is aligned with a front-rear direction, and a connection portion of the plate that connects with the bed and a connection portion of the plate that connects with the legs are displaced in a front-back direction.

The present invention relates to a system, comprising: a transport device 100 comprising a transport vehicle 110 which can be moved freely on a base area and a handling device 150 provided on the transport vehicle 110, a carrier for goods in transport 200 which can be received by the handling device 150 and includes at least one first alignment element 220, and a receiving apparatus 300 for receiving the carrier for goods in transport 200 which can be set up on the base area or arranged on a machine set up on the base area, wherein the handling device 150 is configured to hold the carrier for goods in transport 200 in such a way that, when the carrier for goods in transport 200 is inserted and/or exchanged on the receiving apparatus 300 by the handling device 150, the carrier for goods in transport 200 is kept movable relative to the handling device 150, and the receiving apparatus 300 includes at least one second alignment element 320 which, when the carrier for goods in transport 200 is inserted and/or exchanged, is configured to interact with the at least one first alignment element 220 of the carrier for goods in transport 200 for aligning the carrier for goods in transport 200 with the receiving apparatus 300.

A system for processing a workpiece includes a milling platform, a workpiece handling robotic arm (WHRA), and a spindle robot arm (SRA). The WHRA has a holding tool adapted to move the workpiece from an input staging area to the milling platform, and from the milling platform to an output staging area. A base of the WHRA, the input staging area, the output staging area are all positioned on a same side of the milling platform. The SRA has a milling tool and is adapted to mill the workpiece when supported on the milling platform. The system may include a processor configured to control the WHRA to move the holding tool to a release position or orientation based on positional data of the workpiece generated by contact position sensors, and to move a robotic arm to position vacuum pods on the milling platform, based on the geometry of the workpiece.
