The Belvac 795 series Necker System was developed in response to canmaker requirements for ultra-high-speed necking and flanging machinery. Based on the proven 595K series necker, the Model 795 Necker is test rated at 3,600 cans per minute.
795 series neckers are available with up to seven stages, which can accept either necking or flanging turrets. An optional waxer is available that replaces the standard infeed assembly. Use of the integrated waxer simplifies line controls and reduces trackwork and damage to cans during can handling.
Standard features, such as air-assisted infeed and discharge, vacuum transfer starwheels, and hard chrome-plated can-handling surfaces, ensure positive can handling through the die neck process.
Improved guarding allows greater access to the can path and machine components for easy starwheel timing, setting of flange width and neck depth, and regular preventive maintenance. The machine can be constructed to handle can flow in either direction.
A unique and innovative can cradle replaces main turret starwheels. This improved design offers greater flexibility for can height changes and improved tooling alignment. Automatic lubrication is standard on all Model 795 Neckers.
Standard features on the Belvac 795 sixteen pocket Necker Turret include the high-speed rib-type cams, outboard injectors and automatic lubrication of the cams and spring loaded ram assemblies. The 795 Necker system is capable of production speeds up to 3,600 cans per minute.
The Belvac Model 470 Hot Waxer replaces the standard infeed starwheel assembly on the 795 Necker system. Significant design enhancements have been made to the Model 470 to assist canmakers with high-speed production. A dedicated, integrally mounted vacuum blower ensures positive can handling. Sealed, caged needle bearings on the rollers offer improved service life at the higher, more demanding speeds. Trim can height changeover adjustments have also been greatly simplified to allow more flexibility in production. The unit is capable of operating with hot wax or mineral oil.
The flanger has been redesigned with new radial spin heads to improve flange formation and to lower flange width variation. Revisions have also been made to the designs of the starwheels and can guides to improve the presentation of cans to the flanger tooling.
