Claim 18:
19. A processing installation for aircraft structural components comprising a processing station comprising a clamping frame for receiving an aircraft structural component which is intended to be processed, wherein the clamping frame extends along a station longitudinal axis which extends in a longitudinal direction, and a processing unit for processing the aircraft structural component which has an upper tool unit having an upper tool which is orientated along a first tool axis and a lower tool unit having a lower tool which is orientated along a second tool axis, wherein the first tool axis and the second tool axis are or can be orientated parallel with a vertical direction which is angular relative to the longitudinal direction, wherein in at least one processing position of the upper tool and in at least one processing position of the lower tool the first tool axis and the second tool axis are orientated coaxially relative to each other, and wherein the lower tool is supported on a lower tool carrier,
wherein in at least one processing position of the upper tool and/or in at least one processing position of the lower tool the respective tool axis extends non-coaxially relative to a lower tool carrier axis, wherein the lower tool carrier is linearly displaceable relative to a lower frame portion in a transverse direction, and wherein the lower tool is linearly displaceable relative to the lower tool carrier;
wherein the upper tool is supported on an upper tool carrier, wherein the upper tool carrier is supported on an upper frame portion which extends in the transverse direction;
wherein the lower frame portion and the upper frame portion are connected to each other over at least one lateral frame portion, wherein the lower frame portion and the upper frame portion do not move with respect to the at least one lateral frame portion, and wherein the lower frame portion, the at least one lateral frame portion and the upper frame portion together form a C-shape or portal-like shape; and
wherein the lower frame portion is linearly displaceable in the longitudinal direction, together with the upper tool unit and lower tool unit.
