  • a rotary can trimmer typically comprises a pair of parallel rotating blades that open and close to allow a can body to be placed in position for trimming and to be removed after trimming is0 complete. Once a can body reaches the trimmer cartridge, it is held in position so that one blade of the trimmer is inside the can body and the other blade is outside. With the blades closed the can body is then rotated to cause the blades to trim the entire circumference of the can resulting in a regular surface around the circumference of the can.

That is, controller 31 1 controls the rate of rotation of the rotating portion 305 in order to allow an item to be trimmed to be tracked for a predetermined amount of time.
