- a first and a second punch arranged to move towards and away from each other along a first pressing axis;
- a first and a second die member arranged to move towards and away from an end position along at least a second axis which is non-parallel to the first pressing axis, wherein the first die member includes a first die cavity surface and the second die member includes a second die cavity surface, the first and second die members being configured to form, in the end position, a die cavity having first and second openings for receiving the first and second punches;
- a core extending between the first and the second die cavity surfaces, through the die cavity, when the first and the second die members are in the end position;
- and
- at least a first core portion for forming at least a portion of the core, the at least first core portion being arranged in the first or the second die member and joined to the first or the second die member, such that the at least first core portion is moved together with the first or the second die member to the end position.
