Abstract
In this chapter machine tool basic design principles, technology history and current state-of-the-art technology are described. History refers to the last two centuries; nevertheless, dramatic changes have taken place over the last ten years. One by one the main aspects involved in machine design and construction will be explained in-depth over the following chapters, completing a general view of the machine tool world, making for easy comprehension of the whole book. A new classification of machines for removal processes is proposed, including the new concepts shown in recent industrial fairs, such as multi-task and hybrid machines. At the end, some typical machines for today’s important sectors are described.
