Abstract
To provide a composite lathe enabling the overlapping of movement areas without lowering supporting stiffness of a tool post, and thus realizing enhanced machinability. An XY supporting plane A by which a tool post 5 in is supported to be movable in an X-axis direction is set non-parallel to an XZ supporting plane B by which a third spindle 6 is supported to be movable in the X-axis direction, and an axis of the movement in the X-axis direction of the tool post 5 is set apart in a Y-axis direction from an axis of the movement in the X-axis direction of the third spindle 6.
