A multistage press for the bulk deformation of a piece of wire includes a wire feed with associated apparatus for cutting to length, and a transfer device—having grippers—for receiving a piece of wire that has been cut to length and transferring the latter to subsequent forming stages, there being arranged, on that side of the cutting-to-length apparatus opposite from the wire feed, a device for partially heating a length of wire. A method produces a formed part with a multistage press of this type.

A spring forming apparatus is shown generally at 200, in which metal wire 220 is fed from a supply (not shown) by feed rollers 230, via irregularity-effecting rollers 240 to a forming station 250. The forming station comprises a first deflector 260 and a second deflector 270. When the spring S is complete, it separates automatically from the rest of the wire 220 due to the presence of an irregularity 280, without the need for a cutter device.

A wire thread insert comprises besides a cylindrical helix consisting of a plurality of coils a moving tang projecting into the interior of the helix for installing the wire thread insert into a receiving thread. The wire thread insert is connected to the cylindrical helix via a bending portion such that the moving tang can be redressed into the receiving thread after installation of the wire thread insert. The wire thread insert is installed by means of an installation tool with a mounting spindle, which installs the wire thread insert in the receiving thread via a moving shoulder and the moving tang. A compression blade provided at the mounting spindle bends the moving tang back into the receiving thread while the mounting spindle is removed from the installed wire thread insert.

Provided is a manufacturing method of a wire rod for forming a coil, the manufacturing method including the steps of: placing an element wire in a forming space surrounded by a plurality of split dies; and pressure-forming the element wire by moving the plurality of split dies in a direction of narrowing the forming space. In the step of pressure-forming the element wire, at least one of the plurality of split dies is moved, and the plurality of split dies each having a surface that changes in shape in a longitudinal direction of an element wire to pressure-form the element wire into the wire rod having a plurality of different cross-sectional shapes in the longitudinal direction.
