Pipe machining apparatuses, tool supports, and methods of operating pipe machining apparatuses are provided. In one aspect, a pipe machining apparatus includes a frame, a tool carrier coupled to and movable relative to the frame, and a tool support coupled to and movable with the tool carrier relative to the frame. The tool support is adapted to support a tool and move the tool in a first direction toward a pipe at a first increment and move the tool in a second direction away from the pipe at a second increment. The second increment is larger than the first increment.

A processing machine and method for planing an end surface of a finished pipe with a clamping device for the pipe to be processed via a tool holder with a planing tool, whereby the tool holder is driven by a motor and can rotate about an axis of rotation. The tool holder is driven by a motor so that it can rotate about an axis of rotation, whereby the clamping device and the tool holder are driven by a motor and can move toward one another in a direction parallel to the axis of rotation of the tool holder. The processing machine includes a cooling device that is arranged in such a manner that it cools the pipe to be processed and/or the planing tool with the aid of liquid and/or solid carbon dioxide during the operation of the device.

A device and a method for machining of a flat side of an optical workpiece. The device has two flat guides and a side guide for fluidic guidance of a spindle unit and/or a slide. A linear drive with an assigned tool is located on a slide with a turntable. Highly accurate machining is enabled.

The present invention relates to a precision CNC facing lathe, which comprises a facing head that has slide ways and a feed slide that is mounted in the slide ways on the facing head, wherein, a ball screw feeder that can drive the slide to move in radial direction and a dynamic balancer are arranged on the facing head. The dynamic balancer comprises weight blocks, a weight cable, fixed blocks, and pulleys. The lathe provided in the present invention can absolutely substitute conventional rack-and-gear driven CNC facing lathes, and can improve work piece machining accuracy and machining efficiency.
