A work machining apparatus capable of reducing the stand-by time in each main spindle as much as possible and can improve the operation ratio is provided. In a work machining apparatus having at least one movable spindle 22 which moves forward and backward between the work supply position and the work take-out position, in which a work is supplied to movable main spindle 22 at the supply position, the movable main spindle 22 is moved from the supply position to the take-out position and the work is taken out from the movable main spindle 22 at the supply position, whereby the work is conveyed from the supply position to the take-out position, wherein a tool rest 6 corresponding to the movable main spindle 22 is provided integrally with the movable main spindle 22 and movably on the movable spindle 22, thereby enabling the tool on the tool rest 6 to process the work held on the movable main spindle 22 during the conveyance movement of the work by the movable main spindle 22.
