ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for forming complex shapes in work of large dimensions, including a turn table on which a support for a tool mount is mounted slideable in a horizontal slide. The tool mount has a turret which may be circular or polyganol or any other suitable shape with tools extending from its periphery. The tool mount is mounted in the tool-mount support slideable in a vertical slide. Drives are provided for rotating the turn table, for changing the position of the tool-mount support horizontally along the horizontal slide, for changing the position of the tool mount vertically along the vertical slide and for rotating the turret. The selection and positioning of the tool may thus be predetermined. The work is mounted on a fixture over the turn table so that any selected ones of the tools extending from the turret can be positioned in cutting engagement with the work. The drives are controlled or programmed in accordance with a predetermined program preset in a numerical control unit or by a tracer following a template to form the complex shapes.
