An accommodating device for accommodating an arbitrarily shaped object , comprising a base frame , at least one first base carrier support , which is arranged at the base frame and includes two guides, on which at least one first base carrier is displaceable on a first carrier displacement unit by way of a first base carrier drive , and a second base carrier , supported on a second carrier displacement unit , is displaceable by way of the first base carrier drive or by way of a second base carrier drive , a third base carrier , arranged on a third carrier displacement unit , being displaceable on the first base carrier support by way of a third base carrier drive , by way of the first base carrier drive or by way of the second base carrier drive , or the third base carrier being arranged on a second base carrier support , which is arranged at the base frame and includes two guides, on a third carrier displacement unit and being displaceable by way of the third base carrier drive , wherein an intermediate carrier support is arranged at each of the base carriers , along which an intermediate carrier is displaceable with an intermediate carrier displacement unit by way of an intermediate carrier drive at the respective base carrier , wherein a connecting carrier displacement unit is arranged on the intermediate carrier , by way of which a connecting carrier support is displaceable with an end-face tool holder by way of a connecting drive , so that the arbitrarily shaped object can always be received by at least three determination elements arranged at the tool holders of the base carriers , characterized in that the base frame , having a box design and comprising a guide for media via cables and hoses in the interior, is supported in the vertical on a substructure made of two pedestals . at least one first base carrier support , which is arranged at the base frame and includes two guides, on which at least one first base carrier is displaceable on a first carrier displacement unit by way of a first base carrier drive , and a second base carrier , supported on a second carrier displacement unit , is displaceable by way of the first base carrier drive or by way of a second base carrier drive , a third base carrier , arranged on a third carrier displacement unit , being displaceable on the first base carrier support by way of a third base carrier drive , by way of the first base carrier drive or by way of the second base carrier drive , or the third base carrier being arranged on a second base carrier support , which is arranged at the base frame and includes two guides, on a third carrier displacement unit and being displaceable by way of the third base carrier drive , wherein an intermediate carrier support is arranged at each of the base carriers , along which an intermediate carrier is displaceable with an intermediate carrier displacement unit by way of an intermediate carrier drive at the respective base carrier , wherein a connecting carrier displacement unit is arranged on the intermediate carrier , by way of which a connecting carrier support is displaceable with an end-face tool holder by way of a connecting drive , so that the arbitrarily shaped object can always be received by at least three determination elements arranged at the tool holders of the base carriers , characterized in that the base frame , having a box design and comprising a guide for media via cables and hoses in the interior, is supported in the vertical on a substructure made of two pedestals . <EOS>
