To provide a workpiece transporting method of a multi-process press machine, and its apparatus capable of doubling the number of the pressing steps to be executed by one multi-process press machine.

The workpiece transporting method comprises a transporting step of moving a workpiece W along an advancing passage F and successively transporting the workpiece to a first working station 31 to a fourth working station 34, an intermediate transporting step of moving the workpiece W along an intermediate passage M, a returning step of moving the workpiece W along a returning passage R and successively transporting the workpiece to a fifth working station 35 to an eighth working station 38. The workpiece transporting apparatus 2 for materializing the workpiece transporting method comprises a first feed bar 55 for moving the workpiece W along the advancing passage F, an intermediate conveyor 60 for moving the workpiece W along the intermediate passage M, and a second feed bar 57 for moving the workpiece W along the returning passage R.
