ABSTRACT:
A workpiece feed channel interposed between a metal peeling machine and straightener for elongated, rotating or non-rotating, metal workpieces. The channel includes a plurality of opposed pairs of driven profiled elements having workpiece receiving openings therebetween of a cross-sectional size approximately 1.5 to 10 times larger than the cross-sectional size of the workpieces carried therein. The workpieces are carried by and fed forwardly by the gravitational frictional engagement with the profiled elements. In one embodiment, the upper profile elements are raised to permit the release of the workpiece down inclined surfaces, rather than for the workpiece to continue on to the straightening machine.
