Mod. RB 134

The beading operation takes place by means of rollers with internal and external matrix: this allows the use of this machine even on finished can bodies, with the bottom already seamed. For special needs, the beading machine mod. RB-134 can also process finished cans with bottom and ring. The above is particularly advantageous when using automatic flanging machines or seaming machines: in fact, by beading the cans after the aforementioned operations, possible crushing during flanging and seaming operation is eliminated. The cans, which enter the beading machine mod. RB.134 through a gravity entry guide (which is equipped with presence control sensors), they reach the housings on the conveyor stars. After about half a turn, the beading operation is completed thanks to the intervention of the internal rotating shafts, driven by cams, and mounted on roller bearings. The beading machine mod. RB-134 is designed so that the peripheral speed of the internal rollers and the central drum are the same, in order to prevent slippage of the bodies to be ribbed and consequent abrasions of the lithography and of the internal painting. Subsequently, the bodies come out from the same side as the entrance, thus allowing the insertion of the Mod. RB-134 ribbing machine in production lines having a rectilinear arrangement.
