I think this machine or one very similar to it has been discussed on the (old) forum. I think the opinion was that it was not as good as separate machines.
usually referred to as a “Universal Machine Tool” – have a look on lathes.co.uk for “Adcock and Shipley” and “Dainichi (Japan)”. Then there are a host of others under the heading of “Combination Machines”
These things are never better than separate machines unless you are desperate for space.
Looking at the video I thought that the demonstrator/salesman was about to become an Accident & Emergency statistic. So I did not run the video to its end.
