An ironing apparatus for forming a cup-like metallic article such as an one-piece metallic can body is provided. The apparatus comprises a punch provided on a tip of a ram adapted to reciprocate in the horizontal direction and a plurality of ring dies cooperating with the punch. In the apparatus, the punch reciprocates such that the center of the end face thereof moves along a locus curved downwardly with the gravity, and the die is disposed to be slightly inclined with respect to a vertical plane such that the axis of the die extends substantially in the tangential direction of the locus at the location of the die.
