Abstract:
A swaging machine for swaging rod-shaped workpieces, comprising a ring-shaped forging box supported in a machine frame so as to be rotated and driven about the travel axis of the workpiece, where in radial recesses of the forging box tool-carrying forging punches are accommodated, which act against each other and can be lifted via a lifting drive while the forging box rotates at the same time, characterized in that the forging punches are supported in the recesses of the forging box via pivotally mounted longitudinal guideways, and oscillating movements with a direction of movement lying in a normal plane with respect to the travel axis can be superimposed on the lifting movements of the forging punches, which oscillating movements swivel back the associated forging tools relative to the forging box during their contact with the workpiece at an angular velocity corresponding to the angular velocity of the rotation of the forging box, but directed in the opposite direction.
