Abstract

The station (57) has a receiver unit (61) to temporarily hold a sheet metal part (65). A drive device has several fixed driv units (81-86) each with a slide carriage (93-98). A rod mechanism (67) connects the receiver unit to the drive device and has several fixed-length rods (71-76), which are each arranged between the slide carriages and the receiver unit. The rod mechanism the drive device completely fix the receiver unit position. An Independent claim is included for a pressing plant incorporating the orientation station.
