Automatic Servo Can Seamer

How the automatic servo can seamer works

The conveyor brings filled cans to the machine, and a servo-driven indexing table moves each can into the seaming position under one seaming head. The control program checks that a lid is in place: without one, the can is not seamed and the alarm sounds. A can jam stops the machine, and after the fault is cleared a one-button reset restarts it.

The machine speed is set by a frequency inverter, and the indexing table's torque and speed can be adjusted. It closes cans in air; for vacuum on a conveyor-fed line, compare the LV-135ZFG.

Matching the seamer to your filler

The listed 30–45 cans per minute is the fastest in this family. In a line, the seamer only needs to keep up with the filler before it, so send the filler's output and the conveyor height and direction at the joint. At 35 cans per minute, an 8-hour shift closes 16,800 cans before stops.

Can diameter, height and change parts are defined with your can samples for each format.

Machine features

Review these features with our engineering team to select the configuration for your product and packaging requirements.

• Missing-lid alarm, no seaming without a lid, and a machine stop when a can jams.
• Machine speed set by a frequency inverter.
• Indexing table driven by a servo motor, with adjustable torque and speed.
• One-button reset once a fault is cleared.

Working process

The sequence below outlines the packaging process. We coordinate the stations and their order with the selected equipment and line layout.

• Step 1 — The conveyor brings the filled cans to the machine.
• Step 2 — The servo-driven indexing table moves each can into the seaming position.
• Step 3 — The control program checks that a lid is in place: without one, the can is not seamed and the alarm sounds.
• Step 4 — The seaming head closes the can, and the indexing table returns it to the conveyor.

How this fits the Can Seaming Machines process

Can seaming machines close a filled can by rolling the lid's edge and the can's flange into a seam, by hand-loaded station or on a conveyor, and with or without vacuum or nitrogen. The can and lid, the atmosphere in the can and the line output define the scope of a configuration.
