Abstract (en)

A machine for shaping metal cylinders, comprising: a turntable (1) configured to receive metal cylinders (100) with one open end, and to rotate step-wise, such that the cylinders go through a plurality of shaping positions (32); and a tool-rack table (2) carrying a plurality of shaping tools (21), the machine being provided with means for axially shifting the tool-rack table between a standstill position, in which the tools (21) are separated from the cylinders (100) on the turntable, and a contact position, in which the tools (21) come into contact with the cylinders (100). <??>At least a plurality of the tools (21) are provided with means for axially shifting the tool with regard to the tool-rack table (2), such that the total shifting (X + Y) of the tool towards the turntable corresponds to the sum of the shifting of the tool-rack table (X) from the standstill position and the shifting (Y) of the tool (21) with regard to the tool-rack table (2). <??>The invention also refers to a method. <IMAGE> <IMAGE>
