Cupper Operation in Can Manufacturing
This video provides an overview of the Cupper, a critical component in the initial stages of can manufacturing.
The main drive motor powers both the flywheel and clutch assembly, which in turn drive the crankshaft via the drive shaft. This system provides the necessary motion for the Cupper to function.
The die set assembly consists of the inner die holder and outer die holder, which work together to shape the cups from the aluminum stock.
The in-feed assembly handles the coil stock as it enters the Cupper, with fixed and adjustable guides ensuring that the stock remains centered during the process.
Finally, the discharge assembly is responsible for ejecting the formed cups from underneath each die station, allowing for the efficient movement of material through the production line.
