A forming assembly for use in a can bodymaker includes a stationary assembly and a moving assembly movably coupled to the stationary assembly. The stationary assembly and the moving assembly are a unified assembly that is structured to be selectively coupled to a mounting assembly body of the can bodymaker. The moving assembly is structured to be selectively coupled to a ram drive assembly of the can bodymaker and moved with respect to the stationary assembly thereby.

A ram drive assembly for a can bodymaker includes a mounting assembly and a number of forming assemblies supported thereon, each including: a stationary assembly, having a die pack and a domer, and a moving assembly having a ram assembly and a cam follower assembly. The die pack defines a passage having a proximal and a distal end, with the domer disposed adjacent the distal end. The ram assembly includes a ram body having a proximal and a distal end, with the cam follower assembly coupled to the proximal end. The ram body is structured to reciprocate through the passage between a retracted and an extended position. The ram drive assembly includes: a cam having a body with a number of surfaces for engaging each cam follower assembly; and a motor having a rotating output shaft operatively coupled to the cam body for rotating the cam body.

Cam driven bodymaker

A redraw assembly for a can bodymaker includes a frame and a hold down piston moveably coupled to the frame so as to be slidable with respect thereto. The hold down piston is structured to have a blank holder coupled thereto for engaging and securing a cup adjacent an opening of a die pack. The redraw assembly further includes a cam disk engaged with the hold down piston and moveably coupled to the frame so as to be readily rotatable about a rotation axis and a motor having an output shaft coupled to the cam disk. The motor is structured to selectively rotate the cam disk about the rotation axis. The hold down piston is movable among a first positioning and a second positioning dependent on the positioning of the cam disk.

Redraw assembly for bodymaker

A cam follower assembly for a can bodymaker includes a slider structured to be coupled to the proximal end of a ram body of the can bodymaker; and a plurality of cam follower members rotatably coupled to the slider. The cam follower members are structured to be operatively coupled to a cam of a ram drive assembly.

A can bodymaker includes a mounting assembly and a forming system. The forming system includes a plurality of forming assemblies, each forming assembly coupled to the mounting assembly, each forming assembly including a ram assembly with an elongated ram body, and a ram drive assembly operatively coupled to each forming assembly. The ram drive assembly is a direct ram drive assembly.
