The present invention is for a means for working of elongated objects. These objects can be profiles of wood, plastics or metal, e.g. extruded aluminium profiles. A means comprises sections for feeding in (1) profiles, working (2) and feeding out (4) the worked profiles. Additionally there may be between the working section and the feeding out section a device (3) for cutting of worked profiles to correct length. The means also comprises arrangements for linear movement of the profile through the different sections. A work station position within a working section comprises a frame or similar device which in itself comprises several, preferably four, working units, whereby each working unit may carry one or more working tools (22), e.g. cutting mill or drill, which during the working stages can move with at least three degrees of freedom.
