Abstract:
Provided is a machine tool enabling prompt supply of a workpiece to a machining unit by using a loader. The machine tool is provided with: a first loader for conveying a workpiece to a first machining unit; a second loader for conveying a workpiece to a second machining unit; and a workpiece conveyance device for transferring a workpiece between the first loader and the second loader. The workpiece conveyance device allows for mounting of a first inversion unit, a second inversion unit, and a shift unit thereon.
