Abstract
Apparatus for forging a shaft flange comprises a forging press having a fixed plate and a moving platen. The moving platen carries a finish-forging die as well as a plurality of upper preforming dies while the fixed plate carries a rotary table having a series of like lower dies arranged in a circle. In use, a workpiece is carried by one of the lower dies sequentially into engagement with the upper preforming dies and the finish-forging die by rotational indexing movements of the table so that both the preforming forging operations as well as the finish forging operation are carried out in the same press. The finish-forging die is located substantially on the central axis of the press frame and the rotational axis of the table is spaced from this central axis.
