The one-sided forming tool comprises at least one first trimming device, a second trimming device provided with a punch, and with at least two clamps arranged to hold a blank in position over said one-sided forming tool. The clamps are arranged moveable in respect to each other such that the blank is stretchable and pressure is applicable by said membrane so shaping the blank against said one-sided forming tool within a single and continuous press operation.
