Die in Figur 1 in einer Perspektive schematisch dargestellte Holzbearbeitungsanlage ist insbesondere für eine 6-Seiten-Bearbeitung von länglichen Werkstücken 1 wie Holzbalken, Brettern, Platten und dgl. konzipiert. Sie enthält eine hier als Rollenbahn ausgeführte Werkstückauflage 2 mit einem in Transportrichtung gesehen vorderen Auflagebereich 2a und einem vom vorderen Auflagebereich 2a beabstandeten hinteren Auflagebereich 2b. Zwischen dem vorderen und hinteren Auflagebereich 2a und 2b der Werkstückauflage 2 ist ein im Folgenden noch näher erläutertes Bearbeitungsaggregat 3 angeordnet. Die vorderen und hinteren Auflagebereiche 2a und 2b enthalten in an sich bekannter Weise eine Vielzahl hintereinander angeordneter Transportrollen 4, die zwischen parallelen Schienen 5 drehbar gelagert sind. Die Schienen 5 mit den dazwischen drehbar gelagerten Transportrollen 4 sind auf einem hier als Schweißkonstruktion ausgeführten Gestell 6 angeordnet. Die vorderen und hinteren Auflagebereiche 2a und 2b können einen festen Abstand aufweisen. Mindestens einer der beiden Auflagebereiche 2a, 2b kann aber auch horizontal in Richtung der ersten Linearachse (X-Achse) verstellt werden, so dass die Werkstückauflage möglichst nahe am Werkzeug erfolgen kann.In the FIG. 1 in a perspective schematically illustrated woodworking plant is designed in particular for a 6-sided machining of elongate workpieces 1 such as wooden beams, boards, plates and the like. It contains a workpiece support 2 designed here as a roller conveyor with a front support region 2a in the transport direction and a rear support region 2b spaced from the front support region 2a. Between the front and rear bearing region 2a and 2b of the workpiece support 2, a processing unit 3, which will be explained in greater detail below, is arranged. The front and rear support areas 2a and 2b contain in a conventional manner a plurality of successively arranged transport rollers 4, which are rotatably mounted between parallel rails 5. The rails 5 with the transport rollers 4 rotatably mounted therebetween are arranged on a frame 6 designed here as a welded construction. The front and rear bearing portions 2a and 2b may have a fixed distance. At least one of the two support areas 2a, 2b can also be adjusted horizontally in the direction of the first linear axis (X-axis), so that the workpiece support can be as close as possible to the tool.

Die Holzbearbeitungsanlage enthält außerdem eine Transporteinrichtung 7, mit der ein auf der Werkstückauflage 2 liegendes Werkstück 1 relativ zur Werkstückauflage 2 und zum Bearbeitungsaggregat 5 in Richtung einer ersten Linearachse (X-Achse) horizontal verschoben werden kann. Die Transporteinrichtung 7 enthält zwei oder mehrere an einer Führung 8 in Längsrichtung der Werkstückauflage 2 in der ersten Linearachse (X-Achse) motorisch verschiebbare Transportschlitten 9a und 9b, die jeweils eine feste Spannbacke 10 und eine dazu quer verschiebbare bewegliche Spannbacke 11 tragen. Die Führung 8 weist bei der gezeigten Ausführung zwei oberhalb der Werkstückauflage 2 über dem vorderen und hinteren Auflagebereich 2a und 2b angeordnete parallele Führungsschienen 12 auf, zwischen denen die Transportschlitten 9a und 9b mit den nach unten ragenden Spannbacken 10 und 11 über den gesamten Bereich der Werkstückauflage 2 durch entsprechende Antriebe gesteuert verschiebbar sind. Die Führungsschienen 12 können sektional ausgebildet und derart ausgeführt sein, dass einzelne Bereiche der Führungsschienen bei Bedarf geöffnet werden können, um einen größeren Verfahrbereich des Bearbeitungsaggregats 3 zu ermöglichen.The woodworking system also includes a transport device 7, with which a lying on the workpiece support 2 workpiece 1 relative to the workpiece support 2 and the processing unit 5 in the direction of a first linear axis (X-axis) can be moved horizontally. The transport device 7 includes two or more on a guide 8 in the longitudinal direction of the workpiece support 2 in the first linear axis (X-axis) motorized sliding transport carriages 9a and 9b, each carrying a fixed jaw 10 and a transversely displaceable movable clamping jaw 11. The guide 8 has in the embodiment shown two above the workpiece support 2 on the front and rear support region 2a and 2b arranged parallel guide rails 12, between which the transport carriage 9a and 9b with the downwardly projecting jaws 10 and 11 over the entire region of the workpiece support 2 controlled by appropriate drives are displaced. The guide rails 12 may be formed sectionally and designed so that individual areas of the guide rails can be opened if necessary, to allow a larger range of movement of the processing unit 3.

Die Transportschlitten 9a und 9b sind so ausgeführt, dass sie das Werkstück 1 durch entsprechende Zustellung der beweglichen Spannbacken 11 nicht nur fest zwischen den beiden Spannbacken 10 und 11 spannen und in Richtung der ersten Linearachse (X-Achse) transportieren, sondern das Werkstück 1 bei Bedarf auch führen können. So können z.B. die beiden Spannbacken 10 und 11 des in Transportrichtung hinteren Transportschlittens 9b das Werkstück 1 fest spannen und dieses durch Verfahren des Transportschlittens 9b transportieren, während die beiden Spannbacken 10 und 11 des in Transportrichtung vorderen Transportschlittens 9a das Werkstück 1 gleitend führen. Das Werkstück 1 kann aber auch von den Spannbacken 10 und 11 beider Transportschlitten 9a und 9b geklemmt und zur Bearbeitung festgehalten oder durch gleichzeitiges Verfahren beider Transportschlitten 9a und 9b verfahren werden. Das Werkstück 1 kann bei Bedarf auch nur durch den in Transportrichtung vorderen Transportschlitten 9a transportiert werden, während der in Transportrichtung hintere Transportschlitten 9b das Werkstück 1 gleitend führt.The transport carriages 9a and 9b are designed so that they clamp the workpiece 1 by appropriate delivery of the movable clamping jaws 11 not only fixed between the two clamping jaws 10 and 11 and transport in the direction of the first linear axis (X-axis), but the workpiece 1 at Need also be able to lead. Thus, e.g. the two clamping jaws 10 and 11 of the rear transport carriage 9b in the transport direction firmly clamp the workpiece 1 and transport it by moving the transport carriage 9b, while the two clamping jaws 10 and 11 of the forward transport carriage 9a guide the workpiece 1 in a sliding manner. However, the workpiece 1 can also be clamped by the clamping jaws 10 and 11 of both transport carriages 9a and 9b and held for processing or moved by simultaneous movement of both transport carriages 9a and 9b. If required, the workpiece 1 can also be transported only by the transport carriage 9a in the transport direction, while the transport carriage 9b, which is located in the transport direction, guides the workpiece 1 in a sliding manner.

Zur Bewegung der Bearbeitungseinheit 13 in mehreren Achsen enthält das Bearbeitungsaggregat 3 einen quer zur Werkstückauflage 2 zwischen dem vorderen und hinteren Auflagebereich 2a und 2b angeordneten horizontalen Träger 15, der über einen Schlitten 16 horizontal und vertikal in einer Y- und Z-Achse verfahrbar an einem Gestell 17 angeordnet ist. Der Träger 15 ist bei der gezeigten Ausführung als senkrecht zur ersten Linearachse (X-Achse) verlaufender horizontaler Querträger ausgeführt. Das Gestell 17 ist stationär ausgebildet, könnte in einer weiteren Ausbaustufe aber auch in der X-Achse verfahrbar sein. Der Schlitten 16 ist über vertikale Führungsschienen 18 an dem Gestell 17 in einer zur ersten Linearachse (X-Achse) rechtwinkligen zweiten Linearachse (Z-Achse) vertikal verschiebbar angeordnet. Über horizontale Führungsschienen 19 ist der Träger 15 am Schlitten 16 in einer zu der ersten und zweiten Linearachse senkrechten dritten Linearachse (Y-Achse) horizontal verfahrbar.For the movement of the processing unit 13 in a plurality of axes, the processing unit 3 includes a transversely to the workpiece support 2 between the front and rear support region 2a and 2b arranged horizontal support 15, which is movable via a carriage 16 horizontally and vertically in a Y- and Z-axis on a Frame 17 is arranged. The carrier 15 is executed in the embodiment shown as perpendicular to the first linear axis (X-axis) extending horizontal cross member. The frame 17 is stationary, but could be movable in a further expansion stage but also in the X-axis. The carriage 16 is vertically slidably mounted on the frame 17 via vertical guide rails 18 in a second linear axis (Z-axis) perpendicular to the first linear axis (X-axis). About horizontal guide rails 19, the carrier 15 on the carriage 16 in a direction perpendicular to the first and second linear axis of the third linear axis (Y-axis) is horizontally movable.

An einer vorderen Stirnseite 20 des zwischen den vorderen und hinteren Auflagebereich 2a und 2b ragenden vorderen Endes des horizontalen Trägers 15 ist ein horizontal auskragendes vorderes Trägerteil 21 um eine zu der ersten Linearachse (X-Achse) rechtwinklige erste Drehachse (A-Achse) drehbar angeordnet. Das Trägerteil 21 ist als ein von der vorderen Stirnseite 20 vorstehender horizontaler Stützkörper mit einer zur ersten Drehachse (A-Achse) parallelen Abstützfläche 22 ausgeführt. Auf der Abstützfläche 22 des vorderen Trägerteils 21 ist ein winkelförmiger Arm 23 um eine zur ersten Drehachse (A-Achse) rechtwinklige zweite Drehachse (B-Achse) um 360° schwenkbar angeordnet. Der winkelförmige Arm 23 weist einen auf der Abstützfläche 22 des vorderen Trägerteils 21 aufliegenden unteren Schenkel 24 und ein dazu rechtwinkliges, von dem Trägerteil 21 seitlich auskragendes Stützteil 25 mit einer inneren Anlagefläche 26 auf.At a front end face 20 of the front end of the horizontal beam 15 projecting between the front and rear support portions 2a and 2b, a horizontally cantilevered front support part 21 is rotatably disposed about a first rotation axis (A-axis) perpendicular to the first linear axis (X-axis) , The support part 21 is designed as a projecting from the front end 20 horizontal support body with a first axis of rotation (A-axis) parallel support surface 22. On the support surface 22 of the front support member 21, an angle-shaped arm 23 is pivotable about 360 ° about a second rotation axis (B axis) perpendicular to the first rotation axis (A axis). The angular arm 23 has a resting on the support surface 22 of the front support member 21 lower leg 24 and a rectangular thereto, laterally projecting from the support member 21 support member 25 with an inner abutment surface 26.

An dem freien Ende des um die zweite Drehachse (B-Achse) ebenfalls motorisch schwenkbaren Arms 23 ist die als Motorspindel ausgebildete Bearbeitungseinheit 13 um eine von der ersten Drehachse (A-Achse) beabstandete und zur zweiten Drehachse (B-Achse) rechtwinklige dritte Drehachse (C-Achse) drehbar angeordnet. Die Bearbeitungseinheit 13 ist an der zur Abstützfläche 22 rechtwinkligen inneren Anlagefläche 26 des Stützteils 25 angeordnet. Über den winkelförmigen Arm 23 mit dem von dem vorderen Trägerteil 21 rechtwinklig auskragenden Stützteil 25 ist die dritte Drehachse (C-Achse) parallel zu der ersten Drehachse (A-Achse) angeordnet. Die Bearbeitungseinheit 13 ist über einen Motor um die dritte Drehachse (C-Achse) drehbar. Sämtliche Antriebsmotoren sind gesteuert, so dass die Bearbeitungseinheit 13 eine gesteuerte Bewegung gegenüber dem Werkstück 1 ausführen kann. In die um die Werkzeugdrehachse D motorisch drehbare Werkzeugaufnahme 14 der Bearbeitungseinheit 13 kann ein Fräser, ein Bohrer, eine Säge oder ein anderes geeignetes Werkzeug eingespannt sein. Die Werkzeugdrehachse D ist rechtwinklig zur dritten Drehachse (C-Achse) ausgerichtet.At the free end of the about the second axis of rotation (B-axis) also motor pivotable arm 23 is designed as a motor spindle machining unit 13 about one of the first axis of rotation (A-axis) spaced and the second axis of rotation (B-axis) right-angle third axis of rotation (C-axis) rotatably arranged. The processing unit 13 is at the support surface 22 perpendicular to the inner bearing surface 26 of the support member 25th arranged. About the angle-shaped arm 23 with the right of the front support member 21 projecting support member 25, the third axis of rotation (C-axis) is arranged parallel to the first axis of rotation (A-axis). The processing unit 13 is rotatable about a motor about the third axis of rotation (C-axis). All drive motors are controlled so that the processing unit 13 can perform a controlled movement relative to the workpiece 1. A milling cutter, a drill, a saw or another suitable tool can be clamped in the tool holder 14 of the machining unit 13, which can be rotated by a motor about the tool rotational axis D. The tool rotation axis D is aligned at right angles to the third axis of rotation (C axis).

Der Träger 15 ist mit seinem gegenüber dem Vertikalträger 19 auskragenden vorderen Ende zwischen dem vorderen und hinteren Auflagerbereich 2a und 2b auch über und unter dem Werkstück 1 so verfahrbar, dass die in drei Achsen drehbare Bearbeitungseinheit 13 mit dem Werkzeug zu allen Seiten des Werkstücks gelangt. So kann z.B. neben der Ober- und Unterseite des Werkstücks auch die Hinter- und Vorderseite des Werkstücks 1 bearbeitetet werden. Auch die beiden Stirnseiten des Werkstücks 1 können bearbeitet werden. Durch die vorstehend beschriebenen Bewegungsmöglichkeiten im mehreren Achsen kann somit das durch die Transporteinrichtung transportierte Werkstück 1 ohne Umkanten auf allen sechs Seiten bearbeitet werden.The support 15 is movable above and below the workpiece 1 with its front end projecting relative to the vertical support 19 between the front and rear support regions 2a and 2b so that the machining unit 13 rotatable in three axes reaches the workpiece on all sides of the workpiece. Thus, e.g. In addition to the top and bottom of the workpiece and the back and front of the workpiece 1 are edited. Also, the two end faces of the workpiece 1 can be edited. As a result of the above-described possibilities of movement in several axes, the workpiece 1 transported by the transport device can thus be processed without being edged on all six sides.
