A machining system (100) for machining workpieces which have a bore to be machined by honing has a honing machine (200) which has a plurality of workstations (220-1, 220-2, 240-1, 240-2), wherein at least one of the workstations is configured as a honing station (220-1, 220-2). The honing machine has an internal transport system (600) with a plurality of workpiece holding devices (670-1, 670-2, 670-8) for holding a workpiece, a workpiece held in a workpiece holding device being moved one after the other by moving the transport system along a transport path (610) Different work stations of the honing machine can be transported. Furthermore, a loading system (400) is provided for loading and unloading the honing machine. The loading system (400) has a robot unit (500) for loading and unloading the workpiece holding devices (670-1, 670-2, 670-8). The robot unit is configured to carry out at least one of the following operations in addition to loading and unloading the workpiece holding devices (670-1, 670-2, 670-8): (a) replacing workpiece holding devices (670-1, 670-2, 670-8) or interchangeable parts of the workpiece holding devices of the transport system; (b) exchange of tools (tool change) at a work station; (c) exchange of (workpiece-specific) measuring equipment; (d) gripping a workpiece and moving the workpiece relative to a tool Work station in such a way that at least part of a relative movement between the tool and workpiece required at the work station is brought about by controlled movements of the workpiece by means of the robot unit.
