Abstract
A device for working on sheet metal structures, for example the bodies of motor vehicles, to which the structures are fed in succession through a work station. The device has a pair of opposed movable units on either side of the feed path carrying, positioning, clamping and/or welding tools disposed in sets. Each set comprises at least two tools each of which is movable individually between a retracted non-operative position and an operative position so that at any one time, one tool of each set is capable of doing work on a body disposed between the pair of opposed units.
