Abstract:
A hexapodal machining center comprising a stationary frame (3) and a support (2), which are interconnected by six struts (1) of adjustable length, the support (2) having provided thereon six separate articulation points for the struts, wherein three first articulation points of three first struts (1) on the support (2) define a first plane of application located on a first side of the support (2) and three further articulation points of three further struts (1) on the support (2) define a second separate plane of application located on a second side of the support (2), the two planes of application being spaced from one another, wherein the articulation points of the three first struts (1) of the first plane of application on the support (2) define a first plane of application on the frame (3) and the articulation points of the three further struts of the second plane of application on the support (2) define a second separate plane of application on the frame (3), and wherein the first plane of application on the frame (3) lies on the first side of the support and said second plane of application on the frame lies on the second side of the support.
