Machine for drawing metal sheets

An apparatus for drawing a metal sheet comprising:

• a fixed head having a first window through which the metal sheet to be drawn may pass and a first holder for holding a first portion of the metal sheet within the first window during a drawing process,
• a moving head with a second window through which the metal sheet to be drawn may pass and a second holder for holding a second portion of the metal sheet within the second window during a drawing process, the moving head spaced from the fixed head with the second window having an alignment with the first window, the moving head moveable toward and away from the fixed head,
• a support assembly attached at one end to the fixed head and extending longitudinally through the second window of the moving head;
• an actuator assembly comprising the support assembly that is operable to situate the moving head in different and fixed longitudinal positions relative to the fixed head prior to a drawing process;
• and
• a third head situated between the fixed head and the moving head, the third head having a third window through which the metal sheet to be drawn may pass, the support assembly extending through the third window, the moving head and third head situated on a common moving support that facilitates a common longitudinal movement of the moving and third heads relative to the fixed head, the common moving support also facilitating longitudinal movement of the moving head relative to the third head.
