Can Making Machine and Its Main Features

Can Making Machine is a kind of packaging machinery used to produce beverage cans, canned meats and vegetables. Its main features include:

Can Body Forming, Welding and Coating Equipment
Can bodies are formed from pre-scrolled sheets of metal and fed into end making presses to stamp out 650 ends per minute. They are then joined together at their sides and sealed with cement or weld to create cans. The finished cans are then packed into cartons or pallets for shipping to consumers and fabricating plants.

Stolle Conveying Systems for Beverage Can Lines
Stolle Conveying System products are custom-engineered to meet the needs of any can plant with varying size and output requirements. They provide complete infeed and discharge swaths, as well as bi-directional accumulation and mechanical conveying for 3-piece cans, can ends, PET containers and other specialized applications.

Tool Tracking and Inventory Control for Can Manufacturing – Part of Acumence by IPS
A tool tracking system allows bodymakers to identify which tools are in production, which tools need refilling and which ones should be returned to the warehouse to keep them available for future production. It also allows bodymakers to access the correct tool when needed for the job at hand, reducing unplanned downtime and spoilage.

In addition, the system can also alert bodymakers when their tools are missing so they can order the necessary parts from a distributor quickly and easily. The system can also be integrated with IPS's Acumence to allow data from the tool tracking and inventory control to flow seamlessly with production data collected through the Acumence ERP software.

Beverage Cans – Aluminum/Steel Combination
The modern aluminum beer can is not only lighter than the old steel or steel-and-aluminum cans, it is also more durable and easy to recycle. This makes the aluminum can more environmentally friendly, especially in the wake of the environmental movement that began in the 1960s.

Many major beer manufacturers still produce aluminum cans and have found that the cans have several advantages over steel cans, including:

Lighter Cans
The lightweight aluminum can is also less likely to rust or cause damage during storage. And since aluminum is a soft metal, it is easy to open without the use of a special key, so it can be opened by consumers with little or no tools.

Another advantage is that aluminum cans have a glossy, imprintable surface that increases brand recognition and improves shelf life. These benefits are significant, and the beverage can industry has responded by producing many new styles of cans with decorative options.

Aside from a variety of decorative options, some manufacturers are even making aluminum cans with tactile patterns in the sidewall to add brand recognition and make their product stand out from the competition. This creates a unique look that can increase brand recognition and create competitive advantage in a highly competitive market.
