SFM2/22
The series of SFM stretch forming machines has been developed for stretch forming can bodies to meet the steadily increasing demands for higher output. The machine is based on the same principle as the well known and proven types of single and dual head stretch forming machines of the AFMR series.These machines are capable of stretch forming either soldered or welded can bodies. The final shape of the can is determined by the tools which are build for the machine: rectangular, oval, mandolin shaped, square with rounded ends or virtually any other shape within the limitations of the material used.

AFMR / AFMK / AFMP
The AFMR machine is designed for automatic forming of cylindrical, soldered or welded bodies. The body can be formed to rectangular, oval or pear-shaped cross-section, depending on the tooling mounted in the machine. The AFMR machine is designed with two stations. In the first station the cylindrical body is overlap-controlled, i.e. the overlap is always placed in right position in relation to the cross-section of the body or decoration, if any. The overlap can be placed 360° along the whole circumference of the body. In the second station a tooling is mounted. This tooling makes the design of the body.

SBA 200
The fully automatic SBA 200 is a double-end body flanger designed to handle rectangular and irregular, as well as round and cone-shaped can bodies. The machine can be set up for welded, soldered, or locked side seams. A variable motor drive allows adjustment to suit a wide range of can body shapes and line speeds. Squeeze flanging eliminates buckling of the can bodies and over-flanging on the corners. This makes the unit especially suitable for tall and thin can bodies. In addition, the radius of the flange can be easily selected, ensuring an optimal seam with the can ends.

VA 171
The machine seams irregular and round cans and containers of all kinds and is particularly suitable for seaming bottom and top ends onto square and rectangular containers. The machine is fitted with two 4-roller seaming heads, one for the first and one for the second seaming operation. The table height is fixed whereas the seaming top can be adjusted by the gear motor to the respective container height The output is infinitely variable enabling adaption to the container shape and size.

VA 420 / VA 420-D
The machine seams irregular and round cans and containers of all kinds and is particularly suitable for seaming bottom and top ends onto square and rectangular containers. The machine is fitted with two 6-roller seaming heads, one for the first and one for the second seaming operation. The table height is fixed whereas the seaming top can be adjusted by the gear motor to the respective container height. The output is infinitely variable enabling adaption to the container shape and size.

VA 457
The machine seams cans of all kinds. A bottom/lid is seamed onto a stationary can. For the first and the second seaming operation, a 4 roller-seaming head system is used. Table height is constant whereas the seaming top can be adjusted by a servomotor to the respective can height. Output is variable, enabling adaption to can shape and size.

U 190
This machine is used for welding handles automatically to rectangular canister lids. The standard version is designed for plastic handles which are welded with the customer’s own single bracket to steel lids. Since the welding current has to flow from the electrode through the bracket and the lid to the counter electrode, only lids which are not lacquered on the reverse around the counter electrode can be processed. The machine is available as a special design for customer-specific handles, even those made of wire.
