A blank (17), which has been sheared off from a coil of wire or from a rod, is rotated through 90 DEG , this rotation being required in connection with the forging of this blank. The gripping-jaws (19, 20), serving for the purpose of transport from one station to the adjacent metal-working station, are attached, for this purpose, to rotating devices (9c, 9d), which are mounted in a manner permitting rotation and are located, on the one hand, on a guide part (7a, 7b) which is driven to reciprocate (A) and to oscillate about an axis (93), and, on the other hand, are anchored to the stationary die-holder (3) via a guiding mechanism (23a, 23b). The guiding mechanism can be regarded as a spatial double-link mechanism, possessing a connecting rod (24), a coupling link (25), a stationary pin-joint (28), a ball-joint (30), and a pin-joint (29a, 29b) which travels with the rotation device (9c, 9d). The components are arranged in such a way that the greatest part of the intended 90 DEG rotation of the blank takes place in the first half of the translational transport movement.
