1. A robotic working line for the production of cutting bodies for prosthetic surgery instruments starting from hollow untreated components, wherein said robotic working line comprises in succession:
an automated three-dimensional laser cutting station with a first automated operator configured to pick up said untreated components from a transport support and supply it to a laser cutting apparatus in which a second automated operator provided with a laser cutting head is configured to make both through holes and also optional auxiliary apertures to obtain corresponding semi-finished components;
an automated grinding station able to receive said semi-finished components comprising a third automated operator configured to place each of said semi-finished components in cooperation with one or more grinding tools in order to obtain respective ground components; and
an automated punching station comprising a fourth automated operator able to place each of said ground components in cooperation with a press device configured to perform a punching working on each hole.
