Abstract
A rotary indexing machine has a fixed machine frame, which is designed for holding a multiplicity of machining units and includes at least one support. The rotary indexing machine has a rotary table rotatable relative to the machine frame about a vertical indexing axis to be arranged on the rotary table The support is designed for the lateral attachment of at least one of the machining units to create free space for machining. The machine frame has high rigidity and stability, a large free space for machining workpieces being created at the same time in the region of the rotary table, and good accessibility of satellites. The indexing devices and the rotary table ensure adjustment or setting-up of the machine.
