Zusammenfassung:A process for producing bearing ring blanks, or gearwheel ring blanks, or tubular connection-member blanks, comprises the steps of:a) providing a steel tube;b) dividing the tube into a plurality of slugs each having an axial through cavity;c) supplying the slugs to a die assembly of a cold-forming station, the forming station including a punch assembly; andd) subjecting the slugs to contained forward extrusion through the die assembly, wherein the thrust imparted by a pushing member of the punch assembly on a subsequent slug causes passage of a preceding slug through the die assembly, with deformation thereof into a blank, while a restraining member of the punch assembly occupies the axial cavity of the subsequent slug and at least part of the axial cavity of the preceding slug.
