Innovative Specialty Can Tooling for Complex Designs

Types of General Line Tooling and Specialty Can Tooling

General line and specialty can tooling often require a customized approach, incorporating similar components used in food and beverage can manufacturing but with tailored specifications for unique shapes and applications. Our tooling solutions ensure that even the most unconventional designs—such as F-style cans, holiday tins, and gas cans—are produced with precision, durability, and quality.

CUSTOM CAN BODY TOOLING

Non-Round Can Tooling: We specialize in tooling for non-round shapes, such as rectangular, oval, or custom contours. Our solutions ensure precise forming, consistent wall thickness, and structural integrity, even for complex geometries.
F-Style Can Tooling: Designed for rectangular or oblong cans, our F-style tooling supports efficient manufacturing and space-saving designs. These cans, often used for industrial chemicals, paints, automotive fluids, and household products, require precise tooling to achieve their flat-bottomed, durable structure and secure closures.
Slim and Tall Can Tooling: Our tooling for slim and tall cans is crafted to maintain stability and uniformity, reducing material waste and optimizing production speed. With advanced materials, such as tungsten carbide, we enhance tool life and minimize maintenance.
Beading Tooling: Adds structural reinforcements to specialty and general line cans, preventing deformation and enhancing durability for containers used in demanding applications.

END TOOLING FOR GENERAL LINE CANS AND SPECIALTY CANS

Custom Shell Tooling: Supports the unique shell designs that align with various specialty can shapes, ensuring reliable material distribution and dimensional stability.
Specialty End Features: We offer easy-open ends, rivet tabs, and custom scoring patterns tailored to your design specifications for perfect fit and functionality.
Seaming Tooling: Joins can bodies and ends with high precision, using techniques adapted for specialty and general line applications to ensure airtight and reliable seals.
Note: While these tooling types may resemble those used in traditional can manufacturing, they are meticulously engineered to meet the unique specifications of specialty and general line can designs. At Oberg, we offer tailored solutions to meet the demands of any project, regardless of complexity.

Materials Used in General Line Can Tooling and Specialty Can Tooling

We select high-quality materials to meet the demands of general line and specialty can manufacturing, each chosen for its performance in high-stress and complex environments.

TUNGSTEN CARBIDE SPECIALTY CAN TOOLING

Durability: Exceptional wear resistance, ideal for non-round and high-volume applications.
Cost Efficiency: Despite a higher initial investment, tungsten carbide reduces long-term costs by minimizing maintenance and maximizing tool life.

TOOL STEEL SPECIALTY CAN TOOLING

Versatility: Available in multiple grades to suit various forming, cutting, and shaping tasks.
Tool Steel Grades:
A2 Tool Steel: Balances toughness and wear resistance for general-purpose use.
D2 Tool Steel: Offers high wear resistance, perfect for forming and cutting applications.
S7 Tool Steel: Known for impact resistance and toughness.
H13 Tool Steel: Heat resistant, ideal for hot work processes.
Powdered Tool Steels: Offers exceptional wear resistance and longevity for high-stress applications, providing versatility at a lower cost than tungsten carbide.

CERAMIC SPECIALTY CAN TOOLING

Precision and Stability: Handles extreme heat and corrosion, ensuring consistent results in specialized environments.
Application: Best suited for intricate, heat-resistant components where precision is critical.
