Abstract

In a machine tool, in particular a laser machine tool, a workpiece slide or tool slide is movable along a guide rail and has at least two guide carriages that are guided on the guide rail. The machine tool has a covering hood that is moved along with the slide, for covering that rail section of the guide rail that is located between the two guide carriages. The covering hood is a part that is not connected to the slide. The covering hood is guided on the guide rail in a displaceable manner between the two guide carriages and is entrained in the displacement direction by the rear guide carriage when the slide is displaced.
