Claim:
A forging apparatus for pressing a blank placed in a die cavity into a workpiece free from providing a draft angle on an inner surface of a die, said inner surface being parallel relative to said workpiece and a direction in which said blank is pressed, and said forging apparatus removing said workpiece from said die, comprising: an actuator; a first die unit displaceable along an axis by said actuator; a second die unit disposed in a body at a position confronting said first die unit; and a displacement member disposed between said first die unit and said second die unit for displacement along said axis, said displacement member having an inner wall surface facing said first die unit and said second die unit and extending parallel to said axis; wherein said displacement member is separate from said first die unit and said second die unit, and displaced axially downward in union with said workpiece by a flowing material of said workpiece contacting said inner wall surface of said displacement member under pressure of said first die unit and said second die unit.
