Machine and method to work metal products

A machine to work oblong metal products, comprising a drawing apparatus (11) configured to feed at least one of said metal products (P) in a direction of feed (Z) and a work apparatus (41), provided with a work plane (41a), in which a bending device (42) is present provided with a contrast element (43), having at least one cylindrical vertical wall, and a bending element (44), positioned downstream of said drawing apparatus (11), aligned in said direction of feed (Z), said drawing apparatus (11) comprising a first drawing unit (12) and a second drawing unit (13) opposite each other with respect to said direction of feed (Z) and at least one drive member (17) to move said drawing apparatus (11) and in which said first drawing unit (12) and said second drawing unit (13) define between them, in said direction of feed (Z), a drawing channel (19) for the at least one metal product (P), wherein, at exit from said drawing channel (19) it includes a guide tube (39), adjustable on a plane orthogonal to a lying plane of said drawing channel (19), followed by a main cutting unit (45) and said bending device (42),

• wherein upstream of said drawing apparatus (11) there is a secondary cutting unit (53) configured to perform a head-wise or tail-wise butting of the at least one metal product (P), and
• wherein said secondary cutting unit (53) is a bilateral type and comprises opposite cutting means consisting of two upper cutting edges (53a, 53b) and two lower cutting edges (53c, 53d), wherein said upper cutting edge (53b) and said lower cutting edge (53d) are configured to perform the cutting of a head end of the at least one metal product (P), and said upper cutting edge (53a) and said lower cutting edge (53c) are configured to perform the cutting of a tail end of said metal product (P).
