WORKPIECE MACHINING METHOD
The purpose of the present invention is to improve the machined-surface quality of a curved surface of a workpiece without reducing the machining speed when the curved surface is subjected to removal machining. Provided is a workpiece machining method in which a rotating table on which a workpiece is placed and a tool are relatively moved along two linear movement axes orthogonal to each other, the workpiece is rotated about each of a first turning axis and a second turning axis orthogonal to each other by the rotating table, and at least one curved surface of a protruding curved surface and a recessed curved surface is subjected to removal machining. The method includes: disposing the first turning axis so as to be parallel to a first linear movement axis of the two linear movement axes, the motor load during linear movement in the first linear movement axis being relatively small; disposing the second turning axis on a plane perpendicular to the first linear movement axis; and subjecting the curved surface to removal machining along the direction of curvature while moving the workpiece along the first linear movement axis and rotating the workpiece about the second turning axis.
HEIGHT MILLING DEVICE AND HEIGHT MILLING COMPONENT THEREOF
A height milling device is provided, which has a base platform with a working surface and at least a height milling component displaceably disposed on the working surface for performing a height machining on a target object, thereby speeding up the production, improving the production efficiency and reducing the labor cost.

Positioning system
A positioning system moves an object in two generally orthogonal directions using a rotationally adjustable bearing system that connects the object to two pairs of non-parallel rails, the bearing system permitting the object to be smoothly translated in one or two directions to a desired position in planar space. This translation is performed smoothly notwithstanding a lack of parallelism between the linear rails.
MACHINE TOOL WITH WORKING SURFACE DEFINED BY ORIENTABLE SUCTION CUPS
The machine tool (1) having a work head (9) adapted to support a tool (21), a workpiece holder (30) having a two substantially parallel beams (31) arranged at a distance adjustable orthogonally to the longitudinal extension of the beams, a carriage (35) on each beam (31) movable along the longitudinal extension of the beam (31), on each carriage (35) a suction cup (39) for blocking the workpieces (P) to be machined. The position of each suction cup (39) with respect to the carriage (35) onto which the cup is mounted is adjustable by rotating around an axis (D-D) which is substantially orthogonal to a blocking surface, for blocking the workpieces, defined by the suction cups (39). To each suction cup (39) an actuator (46, 48) is associated, controlling the rotation of the suction cup (39) with respect to the carriage (35) onto which the cup is mounted.
