Abstract
A metal-working machine (10) comprises a first machining unit including a machining head (12) and means (11) in the form of a clamp for bringing, holding and axially displacing the material to be machine. The machining head (12) carries tools (13 and 14) which rotate and move relative to two axes X.sub.1 and X.sub.2 perpendicular to the axis (15) of the material. The machine also comprises a main turret (16) equipped with machining stations (17) and stations for receiving (18) the parts. In a first option, it comprises a second machining unit (2) carrying machining stations (23). In a second option, it comprises a third machining unit (24) carrying a machining station (26) equipped with a possibly rotating tool (25). In a third option, the machine is completed by an auxiliary turret (20) carrying a machining station (21).
