Method for
machining a component (26, 28, 30), in particular a component (26, 28, 30) for a turbomachine, comprising at least the following steps: a) Arranging the component (26, 28, 30) on a clamping device (24) by a
robot unit (20) and aligning the component (26, 28, 30) relative to the clamping device (24) by the
robot unit (20); b) Fixing the component (26, 28, 30) to the clamping device (24) by moving at least one clamping element (32, 34) of the clamping device (24) by a
robot unit (20), wherein the clamping element (32, 34) is moved by being subjected to at least one rotational movement (36) by the robot unit (20) and during the at least one rotational movement (36) of the clamping element (32, 34) torque monitoring and / or
angular rotation monitoring by the robot unit (20); and c)
Machining the component (26, 28, 30) fixed to the clamping device (24) by a
machine tool (12) d) Loosening and / or removing the clamping device (24) from the
machine tool (12) by the robot unit (20) e) Releasing and / or removing the machined component (26, 28, 30) from the clamping device (24) by the robot unit (20), wherein the clamping element (32, 34) is subjected to a movement (36) by the robot unit (20) limited by a stop element (40) when releasing the machined component.
