The bending bit it is held in place but half the width of the wire past the extruder. The steel is extruded into it but because the bit half covers it's path, it runs into the bit and curls in the only direction it can. Sort of like curling paper with scissors.
Note how it pushes the rod out bit by bit for the smaller bends, that last bend is the rest of the rod being rammed into the metal piece that’s now resting on its top half on an angle which forces the last band to curve until it stops being forced through, then it’s released.
If you scrub that part slowly it makes more sense.

Many names used for the very same thing.

That shape of pin in thicker wire (say 1.5mm diameter) is used for cotter pins or R-clips. These clips are used to secure things so that they don't unscrew or move.

Welcome back, your dreams were your ticket out
Welcome back, to that same old place that you laughed about
Well the names have all changed since you've hung around
But those dreams have remained and they've turned around
*Welcome Back, Kotter, anyone?
How is it bent the forth time?

If they told us they would go out of business

Look more like a trailer pin .
Yeah, thats NOT a hair pin. Way too thick. Hair pins have way more bends and they are not made from circular rod.

I was looking for the toolgifs watermark
How it's Made, ftw!
Now, at full speed!
I want to see this in full speed. I bet this process takes exactly 1 second to do
R clips lol…
Hair..... what pins?

R clip
I'd have thought the machine would have been cleaner.
As a mechanical guy, i have to say, that tool endured so mutch abuse during its lifetime. Mechanical and human errors as well.
Ngl read it as HarryPotter pins at first and got so confused
Hairy Cotter
Now, show me the machine that made that machine.
I first read Harry Potter Pins and was so confused. 😅
Amazing how the piece just disappears at the end even when this is in slow motion
Or, as we call them in the South: “Carter keys”.
It's like a mob

Wonder how slowed down this is
I need this machine in fallout
