Abstract
A transfer system, particularly for the transfer of workpieces in multi-station presses ( ), consists of several transfer modules ( to ), which each have a workpiece holding device ( ) which is carried by at least one lever mechanism ( ). Each lever mechanism transmits the adjusting movement of two mutually independent drives ( ) to the workpiece holding device ( ). One of the drives ( ) is disposed in a stationary manner, and the other is moved by the drive disposed in a stationary manner. This basic principle opens up many design possibilities.
