Although the processing order has been described assuming that the workpieces are simultaneously carried in and out of the workpiece mounting sections 31 and 32, a plurality of workpiece mounting sections are provided in a chain and a desired workpiece is installed. It may be a rotary type work feeder or the like in which the object placing section is sequentially indexed to be rotated to the workpiece transfer position. In the case of such a rotary type work feeder, the headstock 4
On a movement trajectory in a direction orthogonal to the main shaft axis of (main shaft 5),
The unprocessed workpiece transfer position 33a where the chuck 6 receives the unprocessed workpiece from the work feeder 3 (see FIG. 9), and the processed workpiece transfer position 33b where the chuck 6 transfers the processed workpiece to the work feeder 3 (see FIG. 9). Is provided, and when the work placement portion on which the unprocessed work is placed is positioned at the unprocessed work transfer position 33a, the processed work is simultaneously placed at the processed work transfer position 33b. What is necessary is just to be able to position the workpiece mounting part to perform. In this case, when the operation of delivering the processed workpiece and the operation of receiving the unprocessed workpiece are continuously performed, the indexing operation of the workpiece mounting device is not performed, so that the transfer time can be shortened, which is preferable.
