ABSTRACT:
A machining center has machine tools which each have a working space for machining workpieces 21, a clamping station 18 in which workpieces 21 to be machined are clamped into workpiece holders 19, and a loading device which transports the workpiece holders 19 between the clamping station 18 and the working space of at least one machine tool. The workpiece holder 19 have a fixture 51 having self-locking clamping elements 53 for positionally accurate clamping of a workpiece 21. The fixture 51 carries a coupling module 66 for supplying the clamping elements 53 with fluidic energy as well as a multiple coupling 70 which serves for the transfer of measurement signals, and is selectably docked therein.
