Reliable Three-Piece Can Tooling for Versatile Packaging Applications

Key Components and Processes in Three-Piece Can Tooling:

• Body Maker Tooling: Forms the cylindrical body from a flat metal sheet and rolls it into shape. Oberg’s tooling ensures uniformity and precision for seamless production.
• End Seaming Tooling: Used to attach the top and bottom ends to the body. Our precision tooling ensures strong, airtight seals that preserve product quality and prevent contamination.
• Flanging Tools: Shape the edges of the cylindrical body to prepare it for seamless end attachment, enhancing the can’s structural strength.
• Necking Tooling: Reduces the diameter at the open end of the can body, preparing it for efficient lid application and ensuring uniformity for easy stacking.

Difference Between Two-Piece and Three-Piece Cans:

CONSTRUCTION:

• Two-Piece Cans: Made from a single piece of metal with a seamless body and one attached end, commonly used for beverages due to their strength and efficient design.
• Three-Piece Cans: Consist of a rolled metal body with two attached ends, offering more flexibility in shape and size for various applications.

APPLICATIONS:

• Two-Piece Cans: Predominantly used for beverages and lightweight products.
• Three-Piece Cans: Preferred for food packaging, aerosol containers, and industrial products where customization and design flexibility are essential.
