Abstract
The invention relates to a multiple tool for a punching device. The multiple tool comprises a driving mechanism, which can be displaced in a punching direction, with a driving head for driving the driving mechanism by means of the punching device and a driving body connected to the driving head. The multiple tool further comprises a punching tool magazine, which is connected to the driving mechanism, with a guide body, and a plurality of punching tools guided in the guide body. The punching tools in each case have an effective punching length for punching a workpiece to be machined. The driving body cooperates in each case, during punching use, with one of the punching tools to drive it. The multiple tool also comprises a mechanical punching length testing mechanism to test the effective punching length of the punching tools.
