Beverage Can & Food Can Line

We provide can handling equipment used in the tinplate can production line

Empty beverage cans, food cans and milk powder cans must be palletized, wrapped and strapped safely and efficiently, then transferred from the can making line to the warehouse, and later from the warehouse to the filling line for depalletizing, filling, palletizing again, wrapping and storage. This entire flow depends on reliable, well matched handling equipment.

The product range covers magnetic conveying systems including AGV solutions, roller and curve conveyors, empty can palletizers, depalletizers, bundle forming machines, automatic strapping machines and stretch wrapping machines. All of these are designed specifically for the back end of three piece can lines, taking care of post can making logistics, stacking, packaging and warehousing.

Working together, these systems build a highly automated and intelligent post can making process, with higher efficiency, lower damage rates, greater capacity, stable quality and reduced labour and manual handling. Conveyors, palletizers, depalletizers, stretch wrappers and strapping machines can be integrated with both the upstream can making line and the downstream filling line, so material flows automatically and finished pallets are packed without manual work.

Each line can be configured for different can diameters and heights, with running speed tailored to your production requirements.

Can Handling Equipment for Beverage & Food Can Lines

Can a tinplate food and beverage can production line handle multiple can types and different capacity requirements?

Yes. Conveying, palletizing, strapping, and stretch wrapping equipment features modular design. The system supports quick changeover for mainstream can sizes ranging from 50–153 mm in diameter and 30–320 mm in height, and can be customized according to required line capacity, from small-batch, multi-SKU production to large-scale high-speed lines.

Can conveying equipment (such as chain-plate and roller conveyors) maintain line speeds of 1,000 cans per minute?

Chain-plate conveyors, roller conveyors, and related conveying equipment are designed to match and slightly exceed typical filler and seamer speeds. With frequency-inverter speed control, the conveying systems can be adjusted to accommodate production speeds ranging from 400–1,000 cans per minute and can be linked to filling, labeling, and other main equipment signals to maintain synchronized operation.

Can the conveying system be customized for complex plant layouts that require curves and inclines?

Yes. With approximately 20 years of experience in auxiliary equipment customization, flexible chain conveyors can be configured for curves and elevation changes. Chain-plate conveyors can be built with customized inclination angles and lengths, and roller conveyors can be designed with specific transfer heights, allowing the system to adapt to existing turning and incline requirements without requiring changes to the current workshop layout.

Can AGV forklifts be integrated with existing palletizers to achieve unmanned pallet handling?

AGV forklifts support natural laser navigation without requiring magnetic tape. They can be linked to palletizer signals so that once palletizing is completed, the AGV automatically moves to the pick-up position, forks the palletized can load, and transports it to the designated warehouse area. Through the PLC system, pallet batch information can be recorded to support information-based warehouse management.
