SUCCESS STORIES
#successstoryone: Can Sealer Start-Up
A Swiss start-up from the craft sector turned to us for support in developing their can sealer.
Our expertise was particularly in demand at the folding stations, the heart of the system.
Thanks to years of experience in the field of folding technology, we were able to supply our customers with both an innovative design solution and specially manufactured tools.
#successstorytwo: Protecting the folding rollers
A customer faced the challenge of protecting the folding roller elements from aggressive cleaning agents as well as the highly sugary product he was filling.
We have developed a custom-designed folding roller that withstands external influences, with effective protection of the ball bearings and seals.
This means the customer can use the rollers until the profile wears out without having to replace the ball bearings or seals.
#successstorythree: Stainless steel assemblies
A sauerkraut bottler contacted us because the entire lid stacking process had developed rust due to the product, a known problem in the food industry.
The rust infestation led to increased production losses, as the bearings and seals were damaged.
We developed the affected assemblies from stainless steel and also designed protective devices, including a protective shield, to protect the affected areas from product and water damage.
#successstoryfour: Can Maker Line
A renowned machine manufacturer for the production of two-piece cans faced the challenging task of completing its existing production line with a new can seamer.
Although he had already made great progress in the construction, he encountered significant obstacles with the lid stacking and the complex folding stations.
Together we developed and manufactured the necessary assemblies, which are crucial for a seamless production line.
The manufacturer is now able to successfully sell complete production lines for two-part cans.
#successstoryfive: Optimizing the spare parts package
A customer in the beer and soft drink bottling industry reported high after-sales costs for their high-speed can capper. The annual overhauls recommended by the OEM significantly exceeded the maintenance budget.
The maintenance manager noted that during the overhauls, almost new spare parts such as lids and can guides were often replaced, which are expensive to procure.
Thanks to our many years of experience in after-sales overhauls, we have been able to optimize the maintenance cycles for our customers' equipment. We did not follow the general overhaul guidelines of the OEMs, but instead considered specific factors such as the scope of the last overhaul and the production hours since then.
Thanks to a more efficient scope of revisions and the more cost-effective procurement of spare parts, our customer was able to achieve savings of up to 40%.
