An apparatus to produce a self-piercing and clinch nut includes a first forging die assembly, a second forging die assembly, a third forging die assembly, a transfer mechanism, and a controller. The first forging die assembly subjects a blank to first processing. The second forging die assembly is adjacent to the first forging die assembly, and subjects the blank, which has undergone the first processing in the first forging die assembly, to second processing. The third forging die assembly is adjacent to the second forging die assembly, and subjects the blank, which has undergone the second processing in the second forging die assembly, to third processing. The transfer mechanism transfers the blank between two adjacent forging die assemblies among the first to third forging die assemblies. The controller controls operations of the first to third forging die assemblies and the transfer mechanism.
