CPC Class B23Q

A drill removal device is provided for use with a scratch generating tool having a stationary member and a scrap generating workpiece engaging member that is moveable with respect to the stationary member. The debris removal device includes a bracket having a stationary member receiving portion for coupling the bracket to the power tool stationary member. A vacuum receiving portion of the bracket is provided for coupling the bracket to a vacuum source, and a passageway portion is provided for placing the stationary portion in fluid communication with the vacuum source. A variable tube bellows is configured for placement adjacent to the workpiece engaging member. The bellows includes a plurality of bi-stable pleats that are moveable between and stationarily positionable in each of an expanded position and a compressed position for permitting the user to vary the length of the bellows between, and fixedly positioned the length of the bellows at a plurality of different lengths.

Provided is a machine tool including: a bed; a work-table which is provided to the bed; a moving device provided to the bed; a spindle head provided to the moving device; at least a vertical main spindle provided to the spindle head, the vertical main spindle extending in the vertical direction; and at least a horizontal main spindle provided to the spindle head, the horizontal main spindle extending in a horizontal direction.

The present invention relates to embodiments of a machine tool, in particular a multi-spindle milling machine, comprise a machine frame, a workpiece clamping device for clamping a workpiece, an axis slide assembly arranged on the machine frame, and a spindle carrier assembly which is arranged on the machine frame and has at least two tool-carrying work spindles. The axis slide assembly is configured to linearly move the workpiece clamped at the workpiece clamping device by way of three controllable linear axes X, Y and Z. The work spindles are arranged at a turret which can be rotated or swiveled about a turret axis at respectively equal distance from the turret axis, and the spindle axes of the work spindles are aligned or can be aligned in parallel to one another and in parallel to the turret axis.

An attrition liner machining tool, configured to machine the surface of an attrition liner provided radially outward of a set of a plurality of fan blades in a gas turbine engine. The tool includes at least one rotating machine tool having a connector at a first end and a cutter at a second end. The connector is configured to rigidly connect to a rotating fan blade mount of the gas turbine engine that, in use of the gas turbine engine, supports the fan blades. The cutter is configured to machine the attrition liner. The at least one rotating machine tool is configured such that, when it is connected to said rotating fan blade mount of a gas turbine engine, the cutter is passed across the surface of the attrition liner when said rotating fan blade mount is rotated.
