GAMMA III Modular Cap Former
Overview
The modular machine system GAMMA III is used for the further processing of deep-drawn parts for
- twist-off caps (TO caps)
- press-twist caps (PT caps)
- and other closures and speciality cans
The modular design allows for
- flexible machine concepts
- individual arrangement and number of modules
- simple replacement of complete modules in all modules
- very short changeover times due to preset tool assemblies and transfer units
