Abstract: A conveying device for objects, such as pharmaceutical packaging material or parts, includes or forms a conveying pot with a base wall, or is part of a conveying pot with a base wall. The device features a jacket that has an inner peripheral surface and an outer peripheral surface and that extends from a first side to a second side. At least one conveying path for the objects runs helically along the inner peripheral surface from the first side to the second side. The at least one conveying path has at least one anchoring element. The jacket includes at least one through-opening assigned to the at least one anchoring element. The at least one anchoring element reaches through or engages in the at least one through-opening and is integrally bonded to an edge of the at least one through-opening during production, in particular by welding.

Abstract: A method for producing a complex sheet metal part includes clamping a border region of the metal sheet between a die ring of an upper tool part of a pressing tool and a downholder of a lower tool part of the pressing tool; moving the upper tool part further downwards thereby pulling the metal sheet over extended punch inserts of a punch of the lower tool part, thereby generating local material reserves of the metal sheet; moving the upper tool part further downwards while actively retracting the punch inserts, thereby releasing the local material reserves; and forming the metal sheet between the die and the punch using only the local material reserves.
