curlers
These machines are designed to curl
metal ends prior to double seaming. This operation is necessary for
automatic operation as it prevents nesting, allows ends to be separated and
provides longer life to the seaming rolls.
There are several different types of machines. The most
common type for round ends is the disc curler. The center disc is changed for
different diameters and adjustments can be made on the outer segment tooling.
This type requires a started edge on the end. The curler may have a stacking
feature or the ends are automatically conveyed to the next operation. When using
a double die, a double disc curler is used.
