FMC Can Seamer

• Seaming metal cans in food processing for products like vegetables, fruits, and ready meals.
• Packaging pet food in metal cans for extended shelf life.
• Sealing beverage cans, including soft drinks, juices, and alcoholic beverages.
• Used in the chemical industry for packaging various liquid and viscous products.
• Suitable for general canning operations requiring hermetic seals for product preservation.

Typical throughput

For this class of equipment, speeds commonly range from 50 to 250 cans per minute, depending on the number of seaming heads and can size.

Number of seaming heads

Units of this type typically feature 2, 4, 6, or 8 seaming heads, with 4 heads being common for medium-speed lines.

Can diameter range

Can seamers are generally adaptable to various can diameters, typically ranging from 50mm to 153mm, requiring change parts for different sizes.

Can height range

Units commonly accommodate can heights from 50mm to 200mm, with adjustments or specific setups for taller or shorter cans.

Power supply

Typically requires a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with varying amperage depending on motor size.

Air supply

Pneumatic systems are often integrated for control and actuation, requiring a clean, dry air supply, typically 6-8 bar.

Construction material

Generally constructed from stainless steel and food-grade materials in product contact areas, with painted mild steel for the frame.

• What is a can seamer?

  A can seamer is a machine used to hermetically seal lids onto metal cans, creating a double seam that prevents product leakage and spoilage. It is a critical piece of equipment in canning lines.

Used sealing machines are generally valued for their durability and long operational life. Buyers typically prioritize machines with clear maintenance histories and minimal wear on sealing components. Key considerations include film compatibility, seal quality consistency, and ease of adjustment. Reputable models tend to retain functionality well across multiple applications. Industry sentiment suggests these machines offer strong value when sourced from reliable vendors, though operators should verify calibration settings and test seal integrity before full production use.
