The invention relates to a dental machine tool, in particular a dental milling machine (10), having a tool (12) that is changeable in particular via a tool bank (16), and a workpiece holder (14) for receiving a workpiece such as a dental blank made of ceramic, composite or plastics material such as PMMA, and having a housing (24) which is closable during machining by the machine tool, and having a negative-pressure connection to the housing (24). At least one air nozzle (30) that is fitted on or in the housing (24) is directed towards the workpiece and/or the workpiece holder (14) and/or the tool (12) and/or the tool bank (16) and/or a pane of a front flap of the machine tool. Said air nozzle (30) is equipped with at least one electrode for generating an electric field in the region of the nozzle or in front of the latter, and at least one nozzle comprising at least one electrode is directed towards that side of the workpiece or of the workpiece holder (14) on which the tool (12) machines the workpiece. At least two electrodes of an ionizer extend in a spaced-apart manner over a substantial part of the housing (24), and as a result of the application of an in particular pulsating AC voltage provides spatial deionization of the air flowing through the housing (24) and/or deionization of the surfaces of the workpiece, workpiece holder (14), tool (12) and/or window (28) and of the chips produced by the machining operation.

An ultrasonic cutter includes a tool holder and an ultrasonic oscillator. The tool holder has a lower circular air-out aisle defined by sleeving an inner ring and an outer ring. The inner ring has oppositely a first surface and a second surface, and the outer ring has oppositely a third surface and a fourth surface. A gap spacing the first surface from the third surface has an upper air inlet and a lower air outlet. The second surface has a lower inner inclined surface forming a first angle with the first surface. The fourth surface has an outer inclined surface forming a second angle with the third surface. The ultrasonic oscillator, disposed in a chamber of the tool holder spatially connected with the gap, is used for providing ultrasonic oscillation to a cutter. In addition, a cooling and chip diversion system for the ultrasonic cutter is also provided.

Device for machining a workpiece (10) comprising a housing (200), at least one machining head (210) carrying a machining tool (211), characterized in that it comprises an air system (300) for evacuating the chips produced during the machining of said workpiece (10) comprising: an air inlet (301) and an air outlet (302) and an air flow channel (303); a means (304) for causing an air flow to flow in said air flow channel (303); and an air passage through-hole (305) delimiting said air outlet, through which said machining tool (211) extends so that said air flow caused to flow in said air channel can be expelled from said housing through said through-hole in order to repel said chips produced by said machining tool out of said enclosure (201) of said housing.

A laser machine for machining workpieces has a workpiece support that forms a support main plane and is permeable to air perpendicularly to the support main plane. Supply air is directed to an upper side of the workpiece support. Air that is contaminated due to machining is discharged as exhaust air from the upper side of the workpiece support through the workpiece support to the bottom side of the workpiece support. In order to generate a laminar supply air flow which is perpendicular to the upper side of the workpiece support, the flow cross section of the supply air channel is divided into partial cross sections by partial cross sectional walls.

A needle screw fitted to a compressed fluid supply part that is provided on a nozzle main body of a dust removing device adjusts the jet flow rate of a first compressed fluid from a jet nozzle by adjusting the flow path area of a first fluid supply path. Meanwhile, the suction flow rate of a second compressed fluid to be discharged into a discharge flow path is adjusted by adjusting the flow path area of a second fluid supply path by turning a nozzle main body-side adjustment screw that is provided on the nozzle main body and a suction nozzle-side adjustment screw that is provided on a suction nozzle.
