Abstract
A device for clinch joining a component, including a retaining portion for positioning the device at a holder and a main body with a die unit and a punch unit, the main body being mounted on the retaining portion by a bearing point. A drive unit reversibly drives a linearly movable actuating element coupled to a punch or to a die element, along a joining axis of the device to act on the component present between the punch unit and the die unit. The main body moves relative to the retaining portion at the bearing point. A control apparatus between the actuating element and the retaining portion positions the main body relative to the retaining portion in accordance with the position of the actuating element along the joining axis as a result of the driven movement of the actuating element.
