Device for machining band-like or plate-like material

A device for machining band-like or plate-like material (1), especially for punching, notching and forming it, the device comprising:

• the body (2) of the device,
• at least one tool holder (3), most preferably a gap frame tool holder, between an upper branch (4) and lower branch (5) of which the material (1) to be processed is arranged to be fed, and to the upper branch (4) of which tool holder (3) is connected an upper tool magazine (6) comprising a plurality of upper tools (8), and to the lower branch (5) of which tool holder (3) is connected a lower tool magazine (7) comprising lower tools (9) corresponding to the said upper tools (8),
• a support means (10) for supporting the tool holder (3) movably on the body (2) of the device,
• a transfer means (11) for positioning the tool holder (3) in a transverse direction (B) with respect to the direction of feed (A) of the material (1) to be processed,
• a power means (12) having a buffer disc (13) for effecting the machining movement for the tool comprised of the upper tool (8) and the lower tool (9), which is in the tool holder (3),
• between the buffer disc (13) and the upper tool magazine (6) is arranged a movable spacer (14) for directing the force via the said spacer (14) at an individual upper tool (8) in the upper tool magazine (6), and
• a programmable transfer apparatus (15) is provided for moving the spacer (14),
• characterized in that the transfer apparatus (15) and the tool holder (3) are connected to a joint support means (10) which is supported movably on the body (2) of the device that the transfer apparatus (15) comprises a part (16) effecting linear motion and a part (17) effecting rotational motion and that the part (16) effecting linear motion and the part (17) effecting rotational movement are arranged to rotate together with respect to the body (2) of the device.
