Abstract

Press brake tools suitable for punching and/or otherwise deforming workpieces, such as sheet metal. Provided in some embodiments are a press brake tool and a press brake tool holder, in combination. Methods of using press brake tools are also provided. In certain embodiments, the tool has a mechanism for locating and/or seating, such as a tool-seating mechanism adapted for moving the tool parallel to a pressing axis of a tool holder on which the tool is to be used.
