Abstract

Abstract System for machining or treating workpieces clamped into subframes, comprising tools movable parallel and perpendicular to a workpiece under control of a control unit. The system comprises at least two subframes which can be positioned or are positioned into this system such that said tools can be moved into the operating position with respect to each of the subframes in the system to machine or treat the workpieces clamped into the respective subframes under control of said control unit.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 83 words
System for machining or treating workpieces clamped into subframes, comprising tools movable parallel to and perpendicular to a workpiece under control of a control unit, characterized in that the system comprises at least two subframes which can be positioned or are positioned into this system such that said tools can be moved into the operating position with respect to each of the subframes in the system to machine or treat the workpieces clamped into the respective subframes under control of said control unit.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 83 words
System for machining or treating workpieces clamped into subframes, comprising tools movable parallel to and perpendicular to a workpiece under control of a control unit, characterized in that the system comprises at least two subframes which can be positioned or are positioned into this system such that said tools can be moved into the operating position with respect to each of the subframes in the system to machine or treat the workpieces clamped into the respective subframes under control of said control unit.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 50 words
System according to claim 1, characterized in that said at least two subframes are aligned in the system and that said system furthermore comprises transport means for transporting the tools and the guiding elements asigned thereto into the operating position with respect to at least one of said two subframes.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 64 words
System according to claim 1, characterized in that said at least two subframes are radially directed in the system with reference to a preselected axis of rotation and that the system furthermore comprises transport means for rotating the tools and the guiding elements asigned thereto around said axis of rotation into the operating position with respect to at least one of said two subframes.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 26 words
System according to claim 2 or 3, characterized in that, said transport means comprises stop means which can cooperate with stop means attached to the subframes.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 65 words
System according to one of the preceding claims, characterized in that, the number of subframes is determined by the ratio between on the one hand some of the time periods necessary to clamp the workpiece in the subframe and the time period necessary to remove the workpiece from the subframe, and on the other hand the time period necessary to treat or machine said workpiece.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 53 words
System according to one of the preceding claims, characterized in that, the subframes have vertical parts which in the operating position, in which the clamped in workpiece is machined or treated, are supported onto the work floor, and which vertical parts carry the weight of the tools and the thereto asigned guiding elements.
