A device for flow-forming workpieces having a rotatable first, outer forming tool for acting upon an outer contour of a first workpiece in the form of a hollow body. The device also has a first, inner forming tool for acting upon an inner contour of the workpiece. The first workpiece can be set in rotation about a first workpiece axis and can be plastically deformed by a pressure applied by the first, inner forming tool and the first, outer forming tool in a forming zone formed between the first forming tools by the material being made to flow between the first forming tools. The device has a drive for driving the first, outer forming tool.

A pipe grooving tool that works with commercially-available power drives. The tool attaches to the power drive using the existing tool assembly on the power drive, and allows a single operator to cut, ream and groove multiple pipe segments, without having to replace tools or otherwise alter the power drive and its tool assembly between grooving different pipe segments.

A device for cold working pipe elements has two or more cams, each having a gear which meshes with a pinion to turn all of the cams. Each cam has a cam surface with a region of increasing radius and may have a region of constant radius extending around a cam body. Each cam also has a traction surface extending around a cam body. A discontinuity in each cam surface is aligned with a gap in the traction surface of each cam. The discontinuities and gaps provide clearance for insertion and removal of the pipe element between the cams to form a circumferential groove when the cams are rotated.

A roller tool for a machine tool for the linear forming of a metal sheet comprises a housing, a tool head which for reversibly interacting with a ram of the machine tool is mounted so as to be rotatable relative to the housing about a tool longitudinal axis, having an impact face for transmitting a contact pressure force that is oriented so as to be parallel to the tool longitudinal axis from the ram to the tool head, and a rotary engagement for transmitting a rotating movement about the tool longitudinal axis from the ram to the tool head, and a roller installation for interacting with the metal sheet, having at least one roller body that is capable of being rotatingly driven by way of the tool head.
