ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for machining at least one half of an interconnecting joint between the end regions of two components has a support, a carrier which is movable and fixable with respect to the support, a cutting means which is mounted on the support for machining the end of a component and a datum point. The carrier has two clamps for separately clamping first and second components. A first one of the components is held in a first clamp and is machined by the cutting means to a first profile. The resultant machined part is then removed and replaced by a second part with the machined part being transferred to the second clamp which is positioned adjacent the datum point to act as a template. The second component is now machined to a profile capable of corresponding with the previously machined profile of the first part. The present invention is particularly suited for the machining of dovetail joints.
