WOODWORKING MACHINES

A wookworking machine that can easily and exactly form digitizing data for a plurality of workpieces even during the working operation on the workpieces, thereby considerably increasing the working efficiency. The woodworking machine according to the invention for working of workplaces into specified three dimensional form is characterized in that the woodworking machine is combined with a copying digitizing device and a computer connected to an NC copying digitizing device. The computer loads the NC copying digitizing device with working conditions such as work-starting points and limits, which are calculated by a CAD of the computer. The computer controls and stores the digitizing data formed by the NC copying digitizing device as a control file integrated by a main program. On the basis of the working conditions, the data is stored through the copying operation of the copying head of the woodworking machine. The computer then carries out the driving and control of the woodworking machine on the basis of the digitizing data stored therein.
