Abstract

A multiple stand press or similar press facility for the forming of sheet metal parts has a bedplate, several press stands, and a press slide 7 which can be moved up and down by the press drive via drive gear boxes and connection rods. Tools in progressive stations follow a drawing station. In order to be able to reduce the size of the press facility, the press slide extends along at least two stand areas, and the introduction of force takes place via the connecting rods into the press slide in the stand areas.
