A method for producing a sintered part, having at least the following steps: a) providing a sintered part, said sintered part having a first end face, a second end face arranged at a distance from the first end face in an axial direction, and a circumferential surface between the end faces; b) arranging the sintered part in a tool; c) applying a first pressure force, which acts on the end faces at least in the axial direction, to the sintered part by means of the tool; and d) applying a second pressure force, which acts on the circumferential surface at least in a radial direction, to the sintered part, wherein the sintered part is reshaped at least by the second pressure force, or mechanically processing the sintered part. Steps c) and d) are carried out at least partly simultaneously.
