Abstract
The present invention provides a tool magazine, a machine tool, and a method for assembling the tool magazine that can reduce transportation costs. [Solution] The tool magazine comprises a first chain for moving a first group of tool holders along a first track, a first frame supporting the first chain, a second chain for moving a second group of tool holders along a second track, and a second frame supporting the second chain. The first frame and the second frame can be connected vertically while the first chain is supported by the first frame and the second chain is supported by the second frame.
