Processing apparatus having pivot means

The invention provides a machining apparatus in which a pivoting device which is arranged at the processing device and having a pivoting guide for guiding a pivoting movement about an imaginary pivot axis which lies outside of the pivoting guide, and an intended for machining of a workpiece machining unit is provided, which in the pivot guide of the pivoting device is mounted relative to the processing device pivotable. The inventive device is characterized in that the pivot guide is formed such that the pivot axis passes through the processing unit.
