Therefore, a can may be produced and finished in the container-forming unit in approximately 5 seconds, with the production capacity being 1 can/0.5 s equalling approximately 120/min.
  • the casings OP advance along the conveyor track towards the next operational stage PV in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the sidewall blank. The direction of transfer substantially converges with the direction of their longitudinal axes.

Alternatively, before filling, the casing can at this point be closed with another end member having an open filling opening, whereafter the casing is filled and the filling opening is closed with a closure means.

Due to the pressure of the pressure medium used conveyed through the opening, the casing OP is removed from the wrapping mandrel 2 as a result of the energy effect directed in the axial direction of the wrapping mandrel 2 towards the bottom P of the casing.
  • This transmission medium can also be blown by using the sliding member connected with the transfer table 1 at the container removal station J, the pressure being directed from the sliding member through the channel passing via the table 1 , into the channel leading to the mandrel's end face.

  • the passage is supported on the frame 10 by means of a vertical supporting device 17. Furthermore, a rotator 18 for the transfer table 11 , which is a servo motor, can be seen in FIG. 3.
  • FIG. 3 illustrates the first aperture 12 situated just above the mandrel 2, it may also be situated at a distance from the end face of the mandrel 2 that is greater than the length of the casing OP, i.e. the length of the can, in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the sidewall blank. Consequently, it is possible, by air impingement, to create a sufficiently powerful backward force away from the end face of the mandrel, i.e. the initial impulse, which moves the can in a longitudinal direction away from the mandrel 2 before its front portion enters the aperture 12. This makes it possible to remove cans sideways mechanically or by air impingement, for the purpose of quality control or the removing of cans at the initial stages of production, for example. When moving the cans released from the mandrel to the side, the suction can also be turned off at aperture 12.
