The Universal Front End & Back End Can Gauge from Torus Measurement Systems defines the standard for dimensional inspection of beverage / beer cans.
Available in semi-automatic (manually loaded), automatic (conveyor loaded) or in-line variants, these machines can be supplied for a single fixed body diameter of can, or for facilities producing multiple body diameters.
Incorporates trimmed and finished can measurement into the same system, for full component measurement.
Torus' ground-breaking modular concept allows for systems to be specifically configured to suit a particular customer requirement.
