The invention relates to a finishing device for removing the weld bead generated during welding of a window or door frame or frame section at the mitered surfaces, wherein the finishing device comprises a support surface for the frame or frame section and a processing arm for supporting a tool holder, and the processing arm consists of a plurality of arm elements that move in hinged fashion relative to one another but can also be fixed in place, wherein the tool holder comprises at least two cutting tools driven by a rotational drive, said tools rotating about a tool axis and at least one tool laterally next to the blade of the tool, contact sides.

A sawing and drilling combined machining device includes a frame, a clamping mechanism, a sawing mechanism and a drilling mechanism; the frame includes a first end for mounting the clamping mechanism, a second end for mounting the drilling mechanism, and a third end for mounting the sawing mechanism, the first end and the second end are two opposite ends of the frame in a horizontal direction, and the third end is at an upper end or a lower end of the frame between the first end and the second end.

A hobbing machine is disclosed having a workpiece spindle, by means of which a workpiece can be rotated about a workpiece axis, a hobbing head, at least one chamfering device, a first slide with a first slide guide system, wherein the hobbing head is arranged on the first slide, and a rail system. The first slide, by means of its first slide guide system, is arranged in a displaceable manner on the rail system. The hobbing machine also has a second slide with a second slide guide system. The at least one chamfering device is arranged on the second slide. Also, the second slide, by means of its second slide guide system, is arranged in a displaceable manner on the rail system, such that the first slide and the second slide can be displaced on an identical portion of the rail system. Presented is a structurally simple hobbing machine by means of which a workpiece can be hobbed and chamfered in a short period of time.

The disclosure relates to a processing installation for aircraft structural components having a processing station comprising a clamping frame, wherein the clamping frame extends along a station longitudinal axis, and a processing unit which has a first upper tool unit having an upper tool which is orientated along a first tool axis and a lower tool unit having a lower tool which is orientated along a second tool axis wherein the first tool axis and the second tool axis can be orientated parallel with a vertical direction which is angled with respect to the longitudinal direction, and wherein in at least one processing position of the upper tool of the first upper tool unit and in at least one processing position of the lower tool of the lower tool unit the first tool axis and the second tool axis are orientated coaxially relative to each other.

Machine tool, comprising a workpiece carrier assembly (11) including a workpiece carrier (12), said workpiece carrier assembly (11) being supported on a workpiece carrier support (1) for horizontal movement in a first direction in parallel with a horizontal Z axis; a first tool carrier (21), supported on a tool carrier support (2) for horizontal movement in a second direction, said first tool carrier (21) being displaceable in said second direction between an operative position in which said first tool carrier (21) is facing said workpiece carrier assembly (11), and an inoperative position in which said first tool carrier (21) is not facing the workpiece carrier assembly (11).
