Stretching
SFM1/11
The machine has been developed to meet the ever growing demand for higher production output for expanded can bodies. It is based on the same principle as our well-known and proven types of single- and double-headed expansion machines of the AFMR series. The SFM can process both longitudinally welded and brazed hulls. In each case, the shape is determined by the expanding tool used on the machine. The fuselage cross-section can be rectangular, oval, mandolin-shaped, square with round ends, or can be given any other shape that is within the sheet metal’s formability range.

AFMR / AFMK / AFMP
The AFMR automatically processes brazed or welded can bodies. Rectangular, oval and other cross-sections can be formed with appropriate tools. The shell surfaces can be parallel or conical. The machine has two working stations. In the first station, the hull is seam-positioned. The position of the welded or brazed seam can be easily fixed by adjusting the safety catch to any position around the entire circumference. In the second station, the fuselage is formed into the desired shape by a hydraulically operated expanding tool.

FM
The FM machine is a semi-automatic expanding machine for the production of expanded can bodies of any type and size. The can cross-section can be rectangular, square, oval, with embossed sides, or round, round-conical (for pails or drums), with or without beads. The side surfaces of the expanded hulls can be either parallel or conical to each other. The respective mold is mounted on a vertical slide system and connected to the hydraulic system with a hydraulic bayonet fitting. This ensures a quick and easy mold change.
