Abstract
A forging machine (,) comprises at least two forging punches (,) acting against each other and longitudinally guided in a forging box (,), which forging punches each have separate mechanical lifting drives and preferably vertical position adjusting means. To achieve a rugged lifting drive with high machine rigidities and a simplified construction, the lifting drives are comprised of a wobble plate drive (,) including a wobble plate (,) rotatably and drivably, but immovably mounted in the forging box (,) about a wobble axis (T) offset in parallel to the respective forging punch axis (S), and a pressure plate (,) associated to the wobble plate (,) and supported in the manner of a ball-and-socket joint on the end face of the associated forging punch (,) facing the wobble plate, where preferably the forging punches (,) can be pressurized via pressure springs (,) in the sense of a frictional connectoin of wobble plates (,) and pressure plates (,).
