    The invention relates to a position compensation system in a transfer center and a method thereof.
    In a transfer center, the machining spindles are arranged in a spindle head, so that the relative position of the individual machining spindle to one another, to the workpiece and to the machine frame is fixed. If necessary, some tool spindles can be moved between a retracted rest position and an extended working position. A position adjustment of a single machining spindle is not provided.
    In a transfer center, the workpiece to be machined is guided to the tools, and furthermore, a spindle head is designed to carry out a large number of similar machining operations, for the most part several machining operations are carried out simultaneously at different feature positions. Therefore, the accuracy requirement is shifted from the exact positioning of a single tool to the exact alignment of the workpiece with respect to a plurality of tools.
    A position deviation can result, for example, from the weight of the workpiece carrier and the workpiece clamped thereon. Also, the stress caused by the machining to a force on the workpiece carrier and, depending on the distance to the clamping or holder, to a corresponding lever arm. To keep the deviations due to force or weight low In known transfer centers, the machine frame or the machine frame is correspondingly solid, which results in increased production costs. A solid workpiece holder, including the traversing mechanism. N2012 / 01400 • · • · * · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · ·. * ·· · * ·
    Device, but has another very significant disadvantage. Since the workpieces must be moved as quickly as possible between the machining positions, it is required in a massive structure much more drive energy to accelerate the masses and slow down again. Also, these movements can cause the entire transfer center micro-oscillations, which has a very negative impact on the achievable accuracies.
    Since the relative position of the tools relative to one another can not be changed, it must be ensured that the workpiece is correctly aligned for all machining steps or machining features. For machine tools, not transfer centers, prior art designs are known for correcting the alignment between the workpiece and a machining spindle.
    For example, DE 196 19 103 A1 shows a compensation device in which the carrier with the tool holder mounted thereon can be corrected in its orientation relative to a desired orientation. In particular, a pivoting of the holding plate or of the carrier in relation to the guide rails is thus possible.
    From DE 37 08 412 A1 a device for level control of a machining carrier is known, in which a workpiece carrier is pivotally mounted at one end and at the other end controllable pressure elements are provided. This can be ensured that the workpiece is always in the predetermined zero position in relation to the workpiece. iäs -a g
    WO 00/37213 A2 discloses a machine tool having two processing tools arranged side by side in a processing unit. Between the shots of the machining spindles a gap in the processing unit is provided, in which gap two pressure elements are arranged, by activating the printing elements, the gap width can be changed and thus reaches an offset of the processing position of the two processing tools N2012 / 01400

    become. Furthermore, embodiments are disclosed in which the relative orientation of a single machining spindle is influenced. For the problem in a transfer center with a multi-spindle machining head, the prior art does not provide a solution, since the documents always deal with the alignment of a machining spindle in relation to the workpiece or the alignment of a workpiece to the machining spindle. Multiple machining operations are performed simultaneously with a multi-spindle machining head, so that alignment of only a single relative position does not provide the desired accuracy.
    The object of the invention is therefore to provide a system for a transfer center, which makes it possible to ensure the position accuracy of a plurality of processing positions on a workpiece. In particular, it is an object of the invention to ensure the positional stability despite a compact machine design.
    The object of the invention is achieved by a position compensation system, which is used in a transfer center for machining workpieces. The transfer center has several, preferably stationary, arranged in a machine frame machining spindles, wherein in the machine frame further a workpiece manipulator is arranged, on which a workpiece carrier is flanged. The workpiece manipulator is movable by means of drive means in at least one spatial direction in relation to the machine frame. On the workpiece carrier, a workpiece to be machined is further arranged by means of a clamping device. Between the workpiece and the machine frame at least two pressure elements are arranged, wherein the effective directions of the two pressure elements form an angle to each other.
    If the workpiece manipulator is movable in relation to the machine frame in at least one spatial direction, positioning inaccuracy can occur, for example due to existing inaccuracies in the drive means. It can also come through the weight of the workpiece carrier or of the workpiece clamped thereon, to a mechanical deformation of the workpiece carrier and / or N2012 / 01400 of the machine frame. Since the direction of action of the two pressure elements enclose an angle to one another, it can now be ensured in an advantageous manner that a position compensation between the actual and desired positions is possible at least in two directions. Preferably, the two effective directions are aligned parallel to the X and Z processing axes of the transfer center, wherein an X-Y orientation is possible. According to the claim, however, it is also provided that the lines of action of the at least two pressure elements can include any angle in order to be able to be adapted individually to a position compensation
    According to a development, it is provided that the pressure element is formed by a hydraulic pressure element. Liquids are incompressible and can thus on the one hand transmit a very large pressure, which is converted by the pressure element into a corresponding force effect. On the other hand, by correspondingly stable maintenance of this pressure, a corresponding holding effect can also be achieved.
    For workpiece machining, basic system accuracy is provided. It will therefore have the machine frame or the workpiece manipulator a corresponding rigidity. Furthermore, the workpiece will be clamped with a corresponding basic accuracy on the workpiece carrier. Also, the control of the drive means of the workpiece carrier will have a corresponding accuracy. According to one embodiment, according to which the pressure element has a travel of up to +/- 0.5 mm, a large part of the possibly occurring position deviations can now be corrected.
    It is further contemplated that the angle < = 120 °. With an arrangement of the directions of action parallel to machining axes, the angle will be equal to 90 °.
    According to a development, it is provided that the effective directions of the two pressure elements lie in one plane, which plane is aligned parallel to a bearing surface of the workpiece carrier. With this development, a rela- N2012 / 01400 φφ f φ * ► φ φ φ φ φ φ φ φ Ιφ * φφφφφφ * · * · φφ φφφφ «« φ_ φ φ φ · * ····· 5 · * * tive positioning of the workpiece on the support surface of the workpiece carrier possible.
    The clamping device, with which the workpiece is clamped on the workpiece carrier, may be formed as a universal part in order to be formed as possible for a variety of different applications. In order to enable a positioning of the workpiece, it is provided according to a development that the pressure elements between the clamping device and the workpiece carrier are arranged. Thus, existing clamping devices can continue to use, for example. In which the pressure element is additionally clamped with.
    A development further consists in that the pressure elements are arranged integrated in the tensioning device. Thus, an individually designed clamping device is formed, which is adapted specifically to the requirements of the respective clamping position or Aufspannerfordernisse.
    A further development also consists in that the tensioning device is formed by the pressure elements. Thus, no additional clamping device is required, the clamping and alignment of the workpiece is possible by the sophisticated further developed clamping device. This also brings a simplification in the workflow with it, since thus not the clamping device and the pressure element are to be handled as individual components, but this can be felt in a single step.
    If, for example, the actuating force of a pressure element is insufficient to carry out the position compensation under conditions of use, two pressure elements can be arranged opposite one another in the same direction of action. In one embodiment, the workpiece is located between the two printing elements. Another possible embodiment is that the two pressure elements adjoin one another. Thus, in addition to an increase in the applicable force, a doubling of the achievable Verstetlwegs is achieved.
    To simplify the arrangement and control of the printing elements, it is advantageous if pressure lines are provided in the workpiece carrier, which are connected via N2012 / 01400 * «··· * · • * • * • 6
    Closures in the workpiece carrier are accessible. In particular, it is advantageous if the workpiece carrier has a plurality of connections which are easily accessible when the workpiece is arranged on the workpiece carrier. Thus, the use of the subject position compensation system leads to no, or only a very small, restriction on the arrangement of the workpiece on the workpiece carrier. It is also advantageous if, in addition, a piping system for hydraulics and / or pneumatics and / or electrical engineering is present, since possibly also additional operating media and / or sensors to the pressure element and / or the workpiece must be performed.
    In addition to a positional deviation caused by a misalignment of the workpiece in relation to the workpiece carrier, a positional deviation by the orientation of the workpiece manipulator is also possible. In most cases, the reason lies in a deformation due to the load occurring, for example, by the weight of the workpiece, or by a machining position in which a large lever arm is formed.
    The workpiece manipulator usually has a base frame in which a first and second carriage is arranged, wherein the first carriage relative to the base frame along two parallel aligned first rail guides in a first direction and the second carriage relative to the first carriage along two parallel aligned second rail guides in a second direction is movable. The printing elements are arranged between the base frame and the first carriage and / or between the first and second carriage.
    The workpiece manipulator is the central part of a transfer center, as thus the workpiece, preferably on the second carriage flanged workpiece carrier, is moved between the individual processing positions. On the one hand, the workpiece manipulator should be as light as possible in order to enable a high travel speed and keep the required drive power low on the other hand, the manipulator must also be designed to be very stable in order to reduce the mechanical load by the weight of N2012 / 01400 • 4 · * * 4 4 4 4 4

    With the objective training can now compensate for the occurring deformations. Due to a large adjustment of the pressure elements with a corresponding force application capacity, evnt. Also, individual components of the workpiece manipulator be made less massive, since the occurring deviation can be equalized with the training according to the claims.
    According to the conventions in the workpiece machining movement of the workpiece carrier in the Y-Z direction is possible with this claim training.
    By rail guide is understood, for example, a longitudinal guide device of a rail and a carriage. Equally meaningful but also understood to mean flat bar guide, round rod guide, Gieitführung, electromagnetic guide, hydraulic guide, this list is not exhaustive.
    According to a development, the effective directions of the two pressure elements lie in a plane which is aligned perpendicular to a front surface of the base frame. This level, hereinafter referred to as the clamping level, also corresponds in the usual way to the plane on which the workpiece is arranged, whereby depending on the workpiece and the workpiece holder, this plane can also be an imaginary plane. With this development, it is now ensured that the clamped on the workpiece carrier and thus usually also supported workpiece, can be positioned relative to its support surface. This has the advantage that the mechanical support function of the workpiece carrier is maintained even in the relative positioning.
    In order to ensure an undisturbed relative movement of the carriages relative to one another and with respect to the base frame and nevertheless to compensate for the position. N2012 / 01400 I * * · ··· »· · * * *« * · * «> In accordance with a further development, the first and / or second rail guide is formed from a longitudinal rail and at least two guide carriages, wherein a pressure element is arranged in the region of a guide carriage. Since the preferred direction of deviation is usually known from structural and load-dynamic considerations, by balancing one of the two pressure elements in a carriage, a compensation of the expected position deviation can be carried out. As already mentioned, a rail guide is understood as meaning all those guide systems which have a guiding part or leading part and a part engaging in this guide or following part.
    A development further consists in that in each case a Druckeiement is arranged in the region of each of the two guide carriages. This results in an increase in the compensation options, since thus, with a 4-point guide, the offset of each contact point of the carriage can be influenced by the guide member.
    It can also be provided that, in addition to the movement in the Y-Z direction, the workpiece manipulator can also execute a feed movement in the X direction. For this purpose, in the second carriage a relative to the second carriage slidably mounted flange, a quill is present, to which the workpiece carrier is flanged. According to a development, it is now provided that the pressure elements are arranged between the second carriage and the flange carrier. When extending the Flanschträgers it can come by the weight of the workpiece carrier and / or by the workpiece clamped thereon and the additional load during processing to a deflection of the quill, which can be compensated by the claimed training. The directions of action of the two pressure elements lie in a plane which is aligned parallel to a front surface of the base frame - this corresponds substantially to the Y-Z plane.
    In order to be able to achieve a positional compensation that is as universal as possible, it is provided that each pressure element is connected via a pressure line to a pressure N2012 / 01400 ΜΜ ··· · ·· «« · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N. ♦ · «» Φ Φ · Φ · * * ♦ * • > »· · · * * ♦ · ♦ · **** · * valve is connected. Thus, by a targeted positive or negative displacement of the individual printing elements as far as possible, each relative position compensation can be performed.
    The object of the invention is also achieved by a position compensation method in a transfer center for machining workpieces. In this case, at least one workpiece is arranged in a clamping device on the workpiece carrier, wherein the workpiece aulweist a plurality of processing features. Each processing feature also has an actual relative position to the machine frame. From a detection device deviation information between the actual relative position and a desired relative position is determined, which deviation information is evaluated by a control module and proportionally, at least one pressure control valve is controlled, which pressure control valve is connected via a pressure line with at least one pressure element. By controlling the pressure control valve, there is a change in the pressure in the pressure line, which also changes the pressurization of the at least one pressure element. This causes a change in the adjustment position along the travel, which change of the travel compensates for the deviation between the actual and desired relative position.
    The detection device may be formed according to a development by a position detection device which detects the actual relative position. Since a position inaccuracy can happen, for example, during clamping of the workpiece, the current relative position of the workpiece can be determined with this development. The position detection device may be formed, for example, by a touch device, an optical distance measuring device or the like. The relative position can be detected to the workpiece carrier, the machine frame and / or the machining head, depending on which part of the transfer center is defined as a reference point.
    In addition to a positioning inaccuracy can also be caused by a static and / or a dynamic load positional deviation. Static by the weight of the workpiece, dynamically by the lever arm extending through the N2012 / 01400 14 · ft · ft i. · * ** 10 · «ft II • · * •« ft • * *
    Therefore, it is provided according to a development that the detection device is formed by a strain gauge, which detects a deformation of the components of the transfer center. For example, this can be done by means of a strain gauge, a load cell and / or the like. Critical to a position deviation due to mechanical stress is the deflection of the sleeve or the flanged workpiece carrier.
    Since the masses to be held are known in the course of planning the processing steps, essentially these are the workpiece and the workpiece carrier, the expected position deviation can be determined in advance. For example, the expected deformation can be calculated by simulation models of the workpiece manipulator. According to one embodiment, it is therefore provided that the detection device is formed by a processing data evaluation module, which determines the mass distribution of the workpiece to be machined. Thus, proactively, a position correction can be carried out before a work step is carried out.
    To correct a positional deviation due to an inaccurate clamping of the workpiece, it is provided that the pressure elements are integrated in the clamping device and / or that the pressure elements are arranged between the clamping device and the workpiece carrier. This ensures that the workpiece is aligned relative to the workpiece carrier.
    Since different loads can occur during the machining of a workpiece and during the movements of the workpiece holder between the machining positions, it is provided according to a development that the position detection device, the evaluation module and the control module form a control loop and an adaptive adaptation of the is- Perform relative position. With a permanent monitoring or detection of the actual relative position, an adaptive adaptation in the sense of vibration damping can thus also be achieved. Due to the clamping situation of the workpiece, it may also occur that some machining features are correctly N2012 / 01400 I ««

    while others require a position compensation - for example, when the workpiece is clamped twisted. With the training according to the claim it can be ensured that for each processing characteristic only the amount specifically required is corrected.
    For a better understanding of the invention, this will be explained in more detail with reference to the following figures.
    Each shows in a highly schematically simplified representation:

    Fig. 4 a) and b) a further detail of the arrangement of Druckele elements.
    Fig. 1a to Fig. 1c show an embodiment of the subject position compensation system 1 in a transfer center for machining workpieces. In this case, a workpiece manipulator 3 is arranged in a machine frame 2, on which workpiece manipulator 3 a workpiece carrier 4 is flanged. On the workpiece carrier 4, the workpiece to be machined 5 is clamped by means of clamping devices 6, wherein by clamping a stationary fixation of the workpiece 5 is achieved in relation to the workpiece carrier 4, in particular the workpiece 5 is held in relation to a bearing surface 7 of the workpiece carrier 4.
    To clarify the essential components of the subject position compensation system, the other components of the transfer center, in particular the machine frame and the machining head, are not or only N2012 / 01400 * 4 «4 4« 4 4 «« φ I · · · 4444 • I · t · ·· Φ «4 4« · »· shown schematically. It is essential for a transfer center that the workpiece is guided to the tool spindle, which is usually arranged stationary in relation to the machine frame. This task is performed by the workpiece manipulator.
    The workpiece manipulator 3 has a base frame 9, in which a first 10 and second 11 carriages are arranged. The first carriage 10 is displaceable relative to the base frame 9 in a first direction 12, the second carriage 11 is relative to the first carriage 10 in a second direction 13 slidably.
    The displacement of the first 10 and second 11 carriage by means of drive means, which are not shown to simplify the figures.
    The workpiece carrier 4 is flange-mounted on a flange carrier 14, which flange carrier 14 is held held in the receiving device 8. To simplify the illustration of the workpiece carrier is shown in Fig. 1a offset from the flange. A refinement can also be that the flange carrier 14 is movable relative to the receiving device 8 in a third direction 15 or that in addition or alternatively, a rotation of the Flanschträgers 4 about the third direction 15 is possible. The drive means required for the movement of the flange carrier 14 are again not shown in the figure, also for reasons of simplicity. Since it can come when clamping the workpiece 5 on the workpiece carrier 4 to an offset between a desired alignment position and the actual alignment position, it is provided that between the workpiece 5 and the machine frame 2, at least two pressure elements 16 are arranged. In the illustrated embodiment variants, the two pressure elements are arranged in the region of the tensioning device 6. In the figure, only two clamping devices are shown to represent the effect of the printing elements and thus the position compensation can. In practice, a plurality of tensioning devices will be provided to accommodate the forces involved in machining the workpiece 5 and to hold the workpiece securely in place. The two pressure elements 16 are now arranged such that their directions of action form an angle to each other. Thus, it is possible to be able to move the clamped workpiece N2012 / 01400 relative to its clamping position, and thus slight positional deviations, so that it can move relative to its clamping position to compensate for the workpiece. However, these are only minor positional adjustments, since the workpiece 5 is arranged in principle exactly aligned on the workpiece carrier 4, with a development of a pressure element 16 is provided that with this position adjustment of +/- 0.5 mm is possible.
    In particular, such a position compensation is advantageous if at least two workpieces 5 are clamped on the workpiece carrier 4 at the same time and are processed with the largely stationary arranged in a machining head machining spindles simultaneously at several positions. It is of particular importance that the individual workpieces are correctly aligned in relation to each other and in relation to the tool spindles. Without the subject position compensation system both workpieces must be aligned exactly to each other and in addition to the machining spindles, which significantly increases the setup effort. The effort for the positioning of the workpieces increases disproportionately with the number of simultaneously clamped workpieces or simultaneously performed processing steps. Here it is therefore of particular advantage if the exact fine positioning of the workpieces can be performed by an automatic system.
    Since the pressure elements 16 are preferably designed as hydraulic pressure cans, it is provided according to a development that pressure lines 17 are provided in the workpiece carrier 4, which can be connected via terminals, preferably in the support surface 7, with the pressure elements 16.
    1a shows a schematic diagram of the receptacle of the flange carrier 14, in Fig. 1 b, a possible embodiment of the workpiece carrier 4 is shown. Fig. 1 c shows a possible Detaiiausführung the tensioning device 6, which in this embodiment a Spannbüge! 18, which is arranged by means of a clamping element 19 on the support surface 7, wherein the workpiece 5 is fixedly arranged on the support surface 7 by the geometric configuration of the clamping bracket 18. In the case shown, between the clamping yoke 18 and the N2012 / 01400, it is now necessary to:

    Workpiece 5 arranged a Druckeiement 16, wherein it comes to a change in length 20 when pressurized. This will also lead to an offset of the workpiece 5. By arranging at least two pressure elements, the directions of action of which enclose an angle to one another, as shown for example in FIG. 1 a, a positional compensation of the workpiece 4 can be carried out after it has been clamped on the bearing surface 7.
    To determine the necessary correction offset can be provided that the workpiece carrier 4, a position detection device 21 is present, which determines the current actual position of the workpiece 5 in relation to the workpiece carrier 4, whereupon a control device determines the correction to be performed and the required pressurization of the printing elements 16 , The position detection device 21 may be formed, for example, contact-loaded by styli, stop contacts or the like, but it is also a contactless detection possible, for example by optically or acoustically acting distance measuring devices.
    The not dargesteilte control device comprises in addition to a module for position evaluation and determination of a correction information, pressure control valves to preferably each individually, or possibly groups of pressure elements, to apply an individual pressure.
    FIGS. 2a and 2b show a further possible embodiment of the position compensation system 1. FIG. 2a shows a rear view of the base frame 9, with the tool carrier arranged on the flange support 14 not being shown for the sake of simplicity of illustration. Shown are the first 10 and second 11 carriages, wherein furthermore the flange carrier 14 is held in the receiving device 8.
    By means of first rail guides 22, the first carriage 10 is displaceable relative to the base frame 9, by means of second rail guides 23, the second carriage 11 is displaceable relative to the first carriage 10. The flange carrier 14 will preferably also have a third rail guide 24, so that thereby N2012 / 01400 ··· ** 15 + ♦ · * ·· a displacement of the flange carrier 14 in the third direction 15 is possible. To simplify the illustration, the drive means are not shown in this figure.
    Again, between the workpiece on the workpiece carrier (not shown) and the machine frame 2, in turn, at least two pressure elements 16 are arranged, wherein the effective direction at an angle to each other.
    In Fig. 2a, in addition to the two pressure elements 16, further pressure elements are provided, in particular between the base frame 9 and the first slide 10 first pressure elements 25 and between the first 10 and second slide 11 second pressure elements 26 are provided.
    2b shows a simplified side view of a transfer center, in which a processing head 27 is arranged in a machine frame 2, in which processing head 27 a plurality of processing spindles 28 are arranged. The machining spindles 28 are usually arranged stationary in the machining head 27, which machining head is in turn arranged stationarily in the machine frame 2. Thus, the processing positions 29 of the tool spindles 28 are fixed in place, so that even small deviations of the orientation of the workpieces 5 on the workpiece carrier 4, in relation to the processing positions, on the dimensional accuracy of the performed processing has a negative effect.
    In addition to inaccuracies in the clamping of the workpieces 5 a position inaccuracy is additionally given by the fact that the relative position of the workpieces 5 can change to the processing positions 29 due to mechanical loads. To assume different machining positions of the flange 14 of the workpiece manipulator 3, along the third direction 15 is extended (in the illustration to the left). As a result, the workpiece carrier 4 protrudes far from the receiving device 8, whereby it already due to the weight of the workpiece carrier 4 and the or the workpieces clamped thereon and / or the mechanical stress caused by the action of the tools of the tool spindles, to a deformation of the Werkstückma- N2012 / 01400 · «· *» φ · ** ·· «« · · «« * * * · I · ft * · · ·· * * * ·· • · t »** ·· · ···· * It is possible that the nipulator 3 can come. In particular, the flange carrier 14 will deflect with the workpiece carrier 4 flanged thereto. This results in a far greater change in the relative position than in the case of tool spindles lying further inside (right-hand tool spindle in FIG. 2 b) when the processing positions 29 are far outside, for example the left-hand tool spindle in FIG. 2 b. This would mean that workpieces spanned further outwards will have larger deviations in the machining positions than workpieces spanned further inside. In addition to or in addition to the position deviation due to mechanical deformation of the workpiece carrier 4 and the Flanschträgers 14, the deviation due to a slight misalignment in the clamping of the workpiece 5 may be added additionally. By the arrangement of two pressure elements 16, as shown in FIGS. 2a and 2b, pressure can now be exerted on the guidance of the flange carrier 14 in the receiving device 8, so that with the same control of the two pressure elements 16, the deflection and individually different Pressure control of the printing elements 16 additionally a position correction of the clamped workpieces is possible.
    Further, by controlling the first 25 and / or second 26 printing elements, a further individual correction of the alignment position of the workpiece to the processing position is possible.
    3a shows a detailed representation of the arrangement of the pressure elements 16 between the flange carrier 14 and the receiving device 8 of the second carriage 11. The flange carrier 14 is movable along its third rail guide 24 and can thus perform a position change in the third direction 15.
    3b shows a cross section through the guide of the Flanschträgers 14 in the receiving device 8, wherein the cutting line is selected such that both in Fig. 3a daigestellten printing elements 16 are abgebiidet. The third rail guide 24 comprises, for example, a plurality of guide rails 30 arranged on the flange carrier 14, in which guide carriages 31 engage. The guide carriages 31 are held by the take-up device 8, so that a two-point bearing N2012 / 01400 φφ ΦΦ φ ·· »Φ Φ · k Φ · Φ ΦΦ k I Φ * · Φ. * Ί7 · φ φ φ φφ φ of the flange carrier 14 is formed. The pressure elements 16 are arranged only in a bearing point, so that when pressure is applied an offset of the flange 14 in the region of the right bearing point of Fig. 3b is achieved. By the distance between the left, solid bearing point and the right, displaceable bearing point thus a lever is formed, which can be corrected in accordance with the law of levers, a positional deviation of the projecting workpiece holder by adjusting the offset in the right bearing point.
    4a and 4b show a detailed view of the first pressure elements 25, in the region of the first rail guide 22 between the base frame 9 and the first carriage 10, and the second pressure elements 26, between the first 10 and the second carriage Hin of the embodiment shown here the first 22 and second 23 rail guide also formed from a rail and a carriage, wherein the guide carriage along the guide rail are movable and thus allow a change in the relative position of the first 10 and second 11 carriage. In the illustrated embodiment, a pressure element is arranged at each guide carriage, a first pressure element 25 between each carriage of the first rail guide 22 and the first carriage 10 and a second pressure element 26 between the carriage of the second rail guide 23 and the second carriage 11. Thus, by individual Activation of the individual pressure elements 25, 26, the orientation or orientation of the Flanschträgers 14 are influenced individually. If, for example, the two first pressure elements 25 from FIG. 4 a are assumed to be uniformly pressurized, the two upper first pressure elements 25 of FIG. 4 b are pivoted to the flange carrier 14 in the plane of the second direction 13. It is also possible, by uniform pressurization of the two left, second pressure elements 26 of FIG. 4a, this corresponds to the upper and lower, second pressure element 26 of FIG. 4b, uniformly pressurized, is a pivoting of the flange 14 in the plane of First direction 12 is possible, If all the first 25 and / or second 26 pressure elements uniformly pressurized, a movement of the flange in the third direction 15 is possible.
