Abstract
The invention relates to a device () and a method for processing objects () with a plurality of tools (), as well as with a tool drive arrangement (). The tools () in each case comprise at least one lever () as well as an acting element () which may cooperate with the object (). The levers () are pivotably attached on tool drive arrangement () on bearing points () and may be driven along a closed revolving path by way of the movement of the tool drive arrangement (). The acting elements () are distanced to the bearing point (). The pivot position of the levers () relative to the tool drive arrangement () may be set in dependence on their position along the revolving path with a guide mechanism. According to the invention, the guide mechanism () is adjustable, wherein different distances (d, d') of adjacent acting elements may be realized in a predefined reference region by way of the adjustment.
