5.2.1 Prerequisites
Prerequisites for a correct forming process:
•
The die system and the workpiece are compatible.
•
The proper jaw system is correctly mounted in the tool.
• The forming dimension is set correctly, please also refer to “Set-
ting the forming dimension”, Section 5.

and increased lopsided wear on the die system and the bearing
plates.
