The machine tool has the functions of a vertical machining center and a horizontal machining center, and also has the function of milling bevels that the existing vertical and horizontal dual-purpose composite machining center does not have. After adding a first rotary table 120, a tool spindle and a horizontal tool magazine are saved, and the cost of the machine tool is reduced. Then, the vertical and horizontal dual-purpose composite machining center is equivalent to a standard vertical machining center when vertical machining, and is equivalent to a standard horizontal machining center when horizontal machining. The two can be switched freely at any time. Therefore, there is no problem of interference between the horizontal spindle and the workpiece when vertical machining, and there is no interference between the vertical spindle and the workpiece when horizontal machining, which solves the mutual interference problem of the existing vertical and horizontal dual-purpose composite machining center.
