This completes the cutting of both sides of the workpiece 17.

In the above embodiment, the saddle 10 is configured to reciprocate in the direction, but the slide table 1.1 may be configured to reciprocate in the direction. In this case, for example, as shown in FIG.
．． The slide bases 1, 1 are fixed to a table 38.38a provided with a groove 37.37 that is slidably fitted into the table 36.
The table 38.3aa is moved by means of an electric motor, a rack, gears, or a hydraulic cylinder, and the saddle 10 is fixed to the bed 12. With this configuration, since the saddle 10 is fixed,

By moving the workpiece in the direction and adjusting the interval according to the machining dimensions of the workpiece, the workpiece mounting table and the processing tool are moved and arranged at predetermined positions in conjunction with the slide table.

That is, the workpiece mounting table can be moved extremely quickly according to the machining dimensions of the workpiece.

Moreover, since the workpiece mounting table is configured to be able to move freely in the reciprocating direction of the slide table or the saddle (the direction that intersects the reciprocating direction of the slide table), the slide table or the saddle can reciprocate. By moving the workpiece in the moving direction, both sides of the workpiece can be machined, resulting in the special effect that the continuous machining work is extremely simplified.

In addition, if a positioning guide is provided in conjunction with the slide table to position the workpiece by bringing the side surface of the workpiece into contact with the side position of the workpiece mounting table, the slide table can be moved in the front-rear direction facing the workpiece and the By adjusting the interval according to the machining dimensions of the workpiece, the workpiece mounting table and the positioning guide move simultaneously in conjunction with the slide table.

Therefore, the workpiece can be positioned simply by bringing the side surface of the workpiece into contact with the positioning guide and placing it across the workpiece mounting table, making this positioning work much easier than in the past. It was possible to do this quickly and efficiently, resulting in a remarkable improvement in work efficiency.
