A precision high cyclic rate metal forming toolpack is disclosed for ironing processes used to produce can or other bodies and preforms of ultra-high precision. An example of the toolpack provides improved centering, dampening and force attenuation response. In an example, the toolpack may be implemented with integrated feedback communication and sensoring. An example of the toolpack also provides unified coolant distribution, including enhanced locational intelligence of infinitely variable tooling positions. An example of the toolpack also provides improved axial and longitudinal articulation for improved tool tracking and floatation. The toolpack may enable improved product quality, throughput, manufacturing efficiency, reduced costs, and reduced labor.
