step of the material to continue a little into the zone between the jaws of the clamping devices as shown in fig1 another optional application where the increased readiness of the material to flow is exploited is obtained when during the drawing step the zone of initial flow of the material is directed to the zone next to the inner edges of the clamping devices after flow has taken place the flow zone is gradually displaced in the direction away from the clamping devices towards the bottom of the press device as the press device gradually shifts downwards as in the figures the result of this is that flow always propagates in the same direction and a new start of flow is avoided such as takes place when the embodiment of the invention shown in fig4 8 is used fig1 shows a device for redrawing the element formed before in the figure which shows only a part of the device a press plunger 40 a counter holder ring 41 a clamping ring 42 and a wall part 18 in the element are seen the wall part being in the process of shaping moreover the bottom 11 34 in the body 13 of the element is seen the clamping ring 42 is provided with a calibration device 43 which determines the thickness of the material drawn anew in the wall part 18 fig1 shows an element body 50 which has been formed by means of the press device 20a.
