ABSTRACT:
A cam milling machine having a headstock and a tailstock, which are fixed on a bed and are horizontally spaced from each other for carrying at a time two camshafts to be rotatable respectively on their axes which extend horizontally in parallel relation with each other. A tool support carrier is guided on the top of the headstock and is movable by an index feed device in a horizontal direction parallel to the axis of each camshaft. Two tool supports each carrying a milling cutter are carried on the tool support carrier to be vertically movable by respective tool feed devices, each for moving the milling cutter associated thereto toward and away from one of the camshafts. The tool support carrier is moved by an index feed device in the axial direction of the camshafts so that each milling cutter is selectively brought into alignment with one of cams on each camshaft. Further, transfer bars horizontally extend across the space between the headstock and tailstock, so that unfinished camshafts are loaded two at a time into the machine from the front of the machine and after machining, are unloaded from the rear of the machine.
