To provide a press apparatus and a tool device in which die units are arranged at an adequate spacing in the longitudinal direction of a workpiece, a random pitch (distance) transfer can be realized, a plurality of apertures of different shapes in a product can be machined at random, and a relative long product can be worked.

The press apparatus includes an inputting device that enables a user of the press apparatus to input working pattern data representing the workpiece, and a display device that displays a working pattern of the workpiece based on the input working pattern data. A tool selecting device selects a plurality of tools required for working the workpiece in accordance with the working pattern data. A calculator calculates a transferring pitch of the workpiece in order for parts of the workpiece to be sequentially arranged in predetermined positions in a feeding direction of the press apparatus with respect to the plurality of tools selected by the tool selecting device. In this regard, the calculator also determines which tool is to be operated in association with the transferring pitch. The press apparatus further includes a controller that controls the transferring pitch calculated by the calculator.
