Zusammenfassung:	A cup feed assembly (12) for a can bodymaker (10) with a vertically oriented, reciprocating, elongated ram assembly (250) is provided. The cup feed assembly (12) includes a chute assembly (20), a rotatable feeder disk assembly (80), and a cup locator (70). The chute assembly (20) includes a transfer chute (40). The transfer chute (40) includes an outer second side member (56), a first end (42) and a second end (44). The transfer chute first end (42) is in communication with the feeder chute outlet end (32). The outer second side member (56) at the transfer chute second end (44) includes a first biasing device (100). The cup locator (70) defines a holding space (76), the holding space (76) in communication with the transfer chute second end (44). The feeder disk assembly (80) is structured to move a cup (1) disposed at feeder chute outlet end (32) through the transfer chute (40) into the cup locator (70). The first biasing device (100) is structured to maintain a cup (1) in the holding space (76).
