A lathe includes a lathe-side chuck that holds a workpiece with the workpiece directed toward or facing a front side, a main spindle that rotates around an axis, and a tool that machines the workpiece. A machining center includes a rotary tool that rotates around an axis in the horizontal direction and an MC-side chuck that holds the workpiece and is able to turn between at least a workpiece pass/receive position in which the workpiece is directed toward or facing the front side and a machining position in which the workpiece is directed toward or facing the rotary tool. A loader includes a guide rail extending above the lathe-side chucks, and MC-side chuck along the horizontal direction and a loader head that holds the workpiece and carries the workpiece between at least the lathe-side chucks, and MC-side chuck by moving along the guide rail.

A machining apparatus includes a first frame including a first surface formed along a Z-axis direction and a second surface formed along a Y-axis direction. An X-axis moving mechanism and a Z-axis moving mechanism are disposed on the first surface side of the first frame. A Y-axis moving mechanism is disposed on the second surface side of the first frame. A second frame supports the first frame from the second surface side of the first frame. An A-axis rotating mechanism, a B-axis rotating mechanism, and a supporting mechanism that supports an object to be machined are moved by the Y-axis moving mechanism. The t Y-axis moving mechanism is disposed in a space located below the first frame in the Z-axis direction, and formed by the second flame.
