Abstract
A device and a method for fine blanking and forming a workpiece out of a flat strip includes. a cutting plate formed as a disc-shaped transfer part, with several cutting openings adapted to the effective elements which take up and clamp a cut out a blank to transport the blank from one machining stage to the next. The transfer part is turnable with regard to the effective elements of the upper part around a virtual axis parallel to the machining direction in the center of the transfer part, turnable perpendicular to it after a lift over the effective elements of the lower part, and the cutting openings in the transfer part are arranged on a common base circle, the radius of which coincides with the distance of the machining stage to the axis, and that the machining stages of the upper part are arranged on the base circle at fixed distances to each other, wherein the machining stages in the transfer part are allocated at least two machining elements diametrically opposed at the circumference, fixed in the pressure pad of the upper part, arranged parallel to the axis locking bolts and several arranged diametrically opposed at the circumference locking openings in the transfer part for adjusting, fixing and lining up the effective elements to each other.
