The brand new necking machine type N40.4 XL marks another milestone development by Germany based Hinterkopf GmbH. Necking machines by Hinterkopf are best known for speed, precision and ease of operation. They integrate seamlessly with the production line, and give cans their finishing touch – the shape.
A revolutionary feature of the new necking machine is its ability to process cans with diameter up to 88mm and 1mm wall thickness. The powerful new machine is ideally suited for specialized products such as fire extinguishers, whipped cream cans and for processing of high strength alloys. With these types of cans the powerful new machine applies its impressive forming force of up to 98kN.
