Zusammenfassung:A method and conversion apparatus for the conversion into a collar of an edge portion around a hole in a blank is described. The method comprises the stepwise turning-up of adjacent parts of the edge portion untill the full edge portion has been converted into a desired collar. The conversion apparatus comprises means for rotating the blank and a converter-mandrel of which the surface of rotation increases non-linearly from one extremity to the other extremity. Moving the converter-mandrel through the hole perpendicular to the surface of the blank and in contact with the edge portion turns up adjacent parts of the edge portion.
