ABSTRACT:
Turret comprising a turret body and a turret head which is rotatable about an indexing axis relative to the turret body and in which several spindles are rotatably mounted. By moving away from the turret body in the direction of the indexing axis, the turret head is unlocked and made rotatable about the indexing axis. To enable one only or several selected spindles to be driven at a time and the remaining spindles to be locked against unintentional rotation, a drive shaft mounted in the turret body in spaced relation to the central indexing axis is released from the previously driven spindle when the turret head moves away from the turret body, and, in addition, each spindle has an associated locking mechanism which is arranged in the turret head and which is only released in the case of the spindle to be driven at that particular time when the turret head is locked on the turret body.
