An apparatus and method for forming at least one end turn and at least one stator slot segment of a conductor for a stator of a dynamoelectric machine comprising at least two forming die sets. The forming die sets are disposed having a space substantially equal to a width of the conductor between adjacent die sets and include a female forming die and a male forming die linearly slideable to the female forming die. The die sets are disposed such that both at least one end turn and at least one stator slot segment are formable between the male forming dies and the female forming dies when the male forming dies are sequentially actuated to the female forming dies.
