Abstract: A plastic forming machine including a fixed pole; a movable pole; a shaft for fixing a raw material; an electric motor for rotating the shaft; a linear movement system enabling the movement of the movable pole; a first pressing rod positioned on lower surface of the movable pole, includes a first arm extending parallel to the movable pole, a second arm extending vertical to the first arm, and a third arm, having a first end and second end, connected to the first arm from its second end; a second pressing rod having a first and a second end, is connected slidingly to the first arm from its first end; at least one actuator connected to the first arm; a contact end connected to the second ends of the second pressing rod and the third arm; at least one control system for controlling the linear movement mechanism and the actuator.

Abstract: The invention relates to a forming machine for the spinning/flow forming of a workpiece, having a machine bed, a headstock, a main spindle rotatably mounted on the headstock, having a flow forming mandrel, which is provided to receive the workpiece, a support, which carries at least one machining tool, and which is axially displaceable relative to the main spindle in a longitudinal direction of the machine bed. Furthermore a main spindle drive for driving the main spindle in rotation and a feed drive for displacing the support are provided. The main spindle drive has at least two drive motors, each having a drive pinion. The main spindle has a driving gear, which can be driven by the drive pinions of the drive motors.
