Zusammenfassung:A multi-axis turning center has a spindle head, a spindle rotatably supported by the spindle head, and a table or a headstock for gripping and rotating a workpiece thereon. The table or the headstock is disposed in confronting relation to the spindle. The spindle head is relatively movable in the three mutually transverse axes directions to the workpiece gripped and rotated by the table or the headstock. A multi-point turning tool is mounted on the spindle and having a plurality of tips, for turning the workpiece gripped and supported by the table or the headstock. The spindle head is movable to translate the multi-point turning tool to one of positions around the workpiece, and the tips are selectively used depending on the one of the positions to turn the workpiece.
