A forming device, (e.g., a spindle press), can include a processing head, having a processing tool that is guided along a movement axis for the forming processing of a workpiece, and a processing region, located opposite the processing head, a processing station configured for the forming processing of the workpiece, and a rotary table having an axis of rotation parallel to the direction of movement and workpiece receptacles that are arranged, with respect to the axis of rotation, in an offset manner with respect to one another in the circumferential direction. The rotary table is configured such that each of the workpiece receptacles is transferable into at least one first working position located within the processing region and into at least one, second working position at least partially laterally outside a cross-sectional area of the processing head in axial projection with respect to the axis of movement.

A press machine includes at least one actuator and at least one linkage to open and close a ram. Another aspect employs a sheet metal-working punch mounted to the ram. A fluid-powered piston drives a carriage coupled to a linkage in another aspect of the present machine. In still another aspect, at least a majority of an actuator is located externally to an outside surface of a stationary structure within which a ram is located. Yet a further aspect both opens and closes a ram with a unidirection movement of an actuator.
