ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Apparatus which reduces the number of moving parts and the movements required by such parts to en- able cups to be transferred rapidly, without damage to cup sheet metal or coating, while controllably feeding cups into a press for redraw, Cups are held in a con- tinuous-feed conveyor collimating means by a stationary element coacting with a longitudinally movable pusher- arm means on the opposite lateral side of the longitu- dinally directed cup travel path. After release, the cup at the head of the collimated feed line moves both longitudinally of and transversely to the cup travel path along a graded ramp surface, provided by the sta- tionary element, into the control of a pivotally mounted gate means. Release of a cup held by the gate means is controlled by a cam carried by the pusher-arm means and the cup is moved longitudinally along the cup travel path by the pusher-arm means between pivotally- mounted cup-positioning arms which bring the cup into registry for redraw; the pusher-arm means is returned for the next cycle of operation as the cup is posi- tioned in registry for redraw.
