Abstract
An adjustable punch assembly is provided for use at an indexable punching station in a turret punch press. The overall length of the punch assembly may be adjusted using a motor and pulley system that is also used for indexing the punch tool. Further, the punch assembly includes a quick disconnect connection between the punch driver and the punch tip that facilitates the changing of the punch tip.
