[origin: EP0417469A2] On a straightening machine, resetting from the straightening of a workpiece (10) to the straightening of a workpiece (10') can be performed automatically. The workpiece holders (7), the straightening supports (8) and/or the measuring devices (9) can be displaced along a positioning rail (11) and clamped either to the positioning rail (11) or a transfer rod (30) displaceable in its longitudinal direction, which takes the elements (7, 8, 9) along one after the other into their new desired position. <IMAGE>
