Closetech Rotary Double Seamer: Series 2003/2004/2006 RDS

The 2000 RDS Series of closing machines has been value-engineered to meet the current and future needs of the can manufacturing industry. The high degree of parts interchangeability between all members of this series results in:

  • Lower machine-building cost, due to the larger manufacturing lot sizes of common parts
  • Reduced lead time, resulting from our ability to assemble the machine required to fill your exact requirements from a stock of common parts
  • Better parts prices and delivery due to the large number of common parts utilized on all models
  • Lower customer investments in spare parts inventory; the ability to maintain a single set of common emergency spare parts to cover the majority of your requirements for 3, 4 and 6 spindle machines.
  • Controlled can and cover assembly
  • Innovative design reduces gearing by as much as 18%
  • 180˚ can infeed/discharge for easy line layout
  • Quick change of seaming spindle speed alternatives
  • Segmented seaming head/spindle and shank assemblies
  • Closing of 110 through 800 high cans with a standard tin line
  • Three-screw cover feed design provides optimum separation and control of all end types
  • All parts affecting can height changes (i.e., cover feed, cover guides, can feed turret) are supported and driven from the top housing, avoiding problems of sliding shaft and key fit alignment
