Abstract

A tool turret includes a tool disk (2) swivelable about a support column (32) that defines a swivel axis (26) into positions in which at least one machining tool fastened to the tool disk (2) is in a machining position. A drive device (14) includes drives (10, 8) connected by a controllable coupling device (18) to outputs (20, 22) used to drive the tool disk (2) or the machining tool. The drive device (14) is arranged inside the tool disk (2) together with the drives (8, 10) and the output (22) used to drive the machining tool. The output used to drive the tool disk (2) in a swiveling manner has a gear train arrangement (34) outside the tool disk (2) on the support column (32). The gear train arrangement has an output shaft (70) that extends along the support column (32).
