Abstract
A orientation device including two turrets, carrying a plurality of punch-die pairs, are rotatable to carry a punch-die pair to a work station and, simultaneously, another punch-die pair to a changeover station. A magazine of punch-die pairs comprises at least one pair of discs joined to each other and carrying a series of punch-die pairs. The discs are selectively rotated to take a predetermined new punch-die pair to a collection station. At least one exchange arm is rotated by a corresponding servomotor and carries at least one gripper element, axially and radially moveable with respect to the arm, independently of each other.
Claims4
