In a lead forming apparatus for a semiconductor device, a holder holds a semiconductor device with leads to be formed, the semiconductor device having leads extending from a package. Two die assemblies (for bending, for cutting, or the like) are set in parallel, each including top and bottom dies matched with each other. A mover changes relative distance between the two die assemblies. The top and bottom dies in the two die assemblies are positioned so the leads of the semiconductor device held on the holder are between the dies.
