An installation for the bending of glazings (6) includes a continuous furnace (1), a station for bending by pressing (10) with a lower shape (11) and a suction shape (15), a plate-suction device (50) that can be displaced longitudinally to transport the glazings (6) from the roller conveyor (7) to the station for bending by pressing (10), and an annular frame (35) that can be displaced horizontally to transport the bent glazings (61) to the cooling station (4). Lower shape (11) is mounted stationary lengthwise and a transfer station (30) is provided between the station for bending by pressing (10) and the cooling station (4). The upper shape can be displaced between the station for bending by pressing (10) and the transfer station (30), in synchronism with the plate-suction device (50).
