Abstract

A device is provided for stamping materials in sheet form, especially sheet metal blanks (5), on a single-acting press. The device includes a cushion (2) made from an elastic material, forming a punch and housed in a retention dish (1) and means for preforming and permanently forming the sheet metal blank (5). The preforming and permanent forming means are arranged in a die (6) including a framework (8), an upper peripheral blank-clamp (9) connected to the framework (8) by at least on elastic member (11) for reaction, strain relief and retention and a die bottom (10) arranged in the upper peripheral blank-clamp (9). The upper peripheral blank-clamp (9) and the die bottom (10) are mounted so as to slide relative to one another and include means (13) for instantaneously linking them together.
