Customized Canbody Production Lines Solutions/Metal Packaging Solution
We design, construct, install and maintain fully integrated canbody production lines, operating in a range from very low speeds to a maximum of 500 cans per minute. Typically, a production system has six separate stations: a slitter to cut the tinplate base material into body blanks of the required size; a transfer system to feed the cut blanks from the slitters to the canbody welder. A welding unit to shape and weld the canbody. a seam protection system to prevent oxidation and chemical reactions damaging the welded can. A curing system to dry and harden the seam protection. And a body former (to give the canbody its final profile and shape). A single control system, equipped with a touchscreen panel, is used for central operation and control of the entire production line.
The most commonly used cans are three-piece sanitary cans which consist of a body and two end pieces that are joined together to provide a hermetic, or perfect, seal. Most commonly used for foods that are heat processed they are also used for packaging powders, syrups, and many other products that are not heat-processed. The most common shape is a round cylinder but square and oval flat cans are used, particularly for seafood processing.
Shantou Light Industrial Machinery Factory customizes two-piece can (integral body and base plus a lid) production lines. We design, construct, install, and maintain fully integrated two-piece canbody production lines that operate at low speed all the way up to 500 cans per minute.

With over 60 years of experience in the design and production of can making equipment, STWMF has provided various can making machines with various production speeds and a whole set of production line solutions for many can manufacturers. Our core equipment automatic canbody welders feature Spanish welding heads, resulting in a defective rate of lower than three per thousand units.
Advantages
Expensive raw materials are not necessary and various rough materials such as tinplate and aluminum can be used to make metal cans, making our equipment suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.
Located in Guangdong, the most economically developed province in China, we have access to a complete industrial supply chain. Various materials and accessories are affordable, so the price of the machine is relatively lower.
Customization range
Designing and customizing 3 piece can production lines. Main devices include gang slitters, automatic canbody welders with various speeds and specifications, inside spray machines, neckers, flangers, beaders and can seamers.
Upgrading some devices based on existing 3 piece can production lines. For example, we can replace old welders to improve overall production efficiency.
Providing design according to specific cans or newly designed can containers such as milk powder tin cans, chemical cans and high pressure cans, allowing our equipment to meet your practical requirements.
Customization process
Provide us with the overall demands for your can production line or corresponding parameter demands such as can production speed, canbody diameter, traditional cans or irregular cans. If you have drawings, you can also give them to us and provide material demands.
According to your basic materials, we will first recommend corresponding equipment. If we don’t have the specifications, we will design and select appropriate products according to your requirements.
After confirming the design, we will begin arranging production. After strict tests, quality products will be packed and transported to you.
When our can making devices reach your factory, we will provide online training or on-site installation and training to ensure that you can smoothly use our devices.
Customer benefits
With a long history of can making equipment production, we have strong technical power, high quality equipment and quality service, which can provide you with the highest cost performance.
We can provide whole sets of 2 or 3 piece can production lines and machine production, installation and debugging service. You can successfully operate the production line and obtain a high output even without professional knowledge.
We will provide a complete after-sale service and spare parts supplying system to ensure the normal operation of equipment.
Our can making equipment is suitable for the production of various sizes and kinds of metal cans and can be adjusted flexibly, which can largely decrease procurement costs.
