Abstract: A press brake machine configured to bend a workpiece. The machine includes an upper beam configured to hold an upper tool assembly that includes an upper rotary tool configured to hold an upper punch and an upper die. The machine also includes a lower beam configured to hold a lower tool assembly that includes a lower rotary tool configured to hold lower punch and a lower die. The upper rotary tool assembly is configured to rotate the upper punch and the upper die and the lower rotary tool assembly is configured to rotate the lower punch and the lower die. The upper rotary tool assembly is configured to position to the upper punch downwards to a first upper rotary tool position when the lower rotary tool assembly positions the lower die upwards to a first lower rotary tool position such that the upper punch.

Abstract: Apparatus for adjusting the shape of an elongate die rail in press equipment comprising a plurality of interconnected shaping members spaced apart from each other and extending longitudinally along the inner surface of the die rail. The shaping members are adapted to permit adjustment of an overall curved shape of the elongate outer surface of the die rail by coordinated longitudinal movement, relative to the die rail, of groups of the shaping members with respect to each other. The shaping members are adapted to permit adjustment of one or more localized portions of the overall shape of the elongate outer surface of the die rail by independent longitudinal movement of one or more individual shaping members relative to the die rail outer surface.
