Abstract

Abstract This invention relates to a workpiece translation mechanism for moving a workpiece through successive stations of a transfer stamping die. The necessary vertical and horizontal movements of the workpiece are accomplished by the cooperation of a plurality of plates which are respectively journalled to each other for reciprocal sliding vertical or horizontal relative motions. Hydraulic cylinders are employed which are operatively connected between the various plates and successively actuated to provide the desired horizontal and vertical motions of a workpiece carrier.
