A movable punch holder moves relative to the die block and includes a plurality of punch pins that are movable within the movable punch holder between a first limit position where the punch pin is able to pierce the workpiece and a second limit position where the punch pin is unable to pierce the workpiece. Each punch pin includes a position setting mechanism that includes an actuator and cam to move the punch pins against the biasing force of a spring.
