The holding unit includes a holding portion holding the work in a state in which a side portion of the work on the holding unit side is exposed. The tilt mechanism is an arcuate slide mechanism including an arcuate shape portion with respect to a virtual horizontal line as the center, and an abutting portion abutting against the arcuate shape portion.

A workpiece support (1) for removing material from a dental workpiece (2) which is held by the workpiece support (1) and is rotated together with the workpiece support (1) about a drive rotation axis (3) when material is being removed. The workpiece support (1) has at least two workpiece support parts (4, 5, 6) which can be separated from each other and connected to each other. One of the workpiece support parts (4, 5) has at least one compensation region (7) with a material projection (8) for introducing a compensation surface (9) by removing material, and the other workpiece support part (6) has a seating surface (10) for connecting to the compensation surface (9) in a formfitting manner.

The present invention discloses a multi-degree-of-freedom numerical control turntable including: a B-shaft rotating assembly; a C1-shaft workbench swing assembly; a C2-shaft workbench rotating assembly; and an S-shaft workbench movement assembly. The B-shaft rotating assembly includes a rotating connection land and a B-shaft power control mechanism; the C2-shaft workbench rotating assembly includes a movement base, a workbench and a C2-shaft power control mechanism; the S-shaft workbench movement assembly includes a swing base and an S-shaft power control mechanism; and the C1-shaft workbench swing assembly includes a swing arm and a C1-shaft power control mechanism, with the C1-shaft line intersecting the B-shaft line. The S-shaft power control mechanism can drive the movement base to move along an S-shaft line on the swing base to cause a region to be machined of a workpiece to approach the intersection point of the C1-shaft line and the B-shaft line. The present invention adds the C1-shaft and S-shaft, so that when the cutting edge point participates in the motion, the coordinate change of the linear shaft is smaller, the compensation range of the linear shaft is smaller, the machining efficiency is higher, and the surface quality and machining accuracy are less affected by the accuracy of the linear shaft.

The invention relates to a device for machining frames welded from profile pieces such as window or door frames made of plastic, said device comprising at least one machining head and machining tools which are mounted thereon and can be delivered to the relevant machining position on the frames. The machining head can be pivoted around an axis and has a positioning shaft which is mounted at an angle with respect to the pivot axis and on which the machining tools are mounted. The positioning shaft extends on both sides of the machining head with machining tools at both end regions of the positioning shaft.

Disclosed is a five axis machining apparatus. The five axis machining apparatus comprises a base member, a support member, a stationary base, a first moving plate, a second moving plate, a third moving plate, a fourth moving frame, a fifth moving frame and a controller (not shown). The five axis machining apparatus is designed to hold together A, C and X axes thereby resulting in a reduced size without compromising on rigidity that is required for processing metallic job components. The five axis machining apparatus allows independent as well as simultaneous control of X, Y, Z, A and C axes.
