Abstract: A tool-holder for machine tools, in particular a punch-holder (10) for forging machines utilised for the production of bolts and screws and provided with an oscillating plate (18), is connected to a plate-like support (12) by means of screws (14), and is adjustable on the same by means of eccentrics (16); said plate-like support (12), which bears at least a punch-holder (10), is caused to be interchangeably integral by two or more screws (20) with the oscillating plate (18) of said forging machine.
Abstract: A tool holder having a plurality of tools fixed thereon is used in a production machine such as a production press to position one tool after the other opposite a workpiece holder. All of the tools perform the same operation and can be brought into position by a pneumatic cylinder which can angularly displace a pinion engaging a rack.
