ABSTRACT:
A redraw die for a can body maker incorporates an undercut sidewall, a grooved face and a reduced radius at the intersection between the grooved face and the sidewall. The undercut side wall is positioned proximate to the grooved face so as to permit a cup positioned over the redraw die to flex into an ovoid shape without pinching or binding against the side of the redraw sleeve. These features help prevent the formation of wrinkles when the cup is drawn and ironed in the body maker.
