How fast can testing be performed?
Depends on machine configuration. Testing speed follows from the tester selected and how it is set up, and is matched to the output of the line it is installed in.

Leaks and integrity failures. The test identifies cans that do not hold pressure, which indicates a fault in the seam or elsewhere in the can body, so those cans can be removed.
Yes. Testing can be integrated into the production line, with cans conveyed through the tester and failed cans separated automatically, so testing runs without interrupting the flow of production.
Depends on application. Whether leak testing is required follows from the product the can will hold and the requirements of the market it is sold into.
Depends on customer specifications. The test pressure is set to suit the product and the requirements that apply to it, and is configured as part of the machine setup.
Yes. Cans that fail the test are ejected automatically, separating them from the cans that passed so that defective product is removed from the line without stopping production.
Performs automatic leak testing. Each can is sealed and air pressure is applied inside it, and the machine detects whether the can holds that pressure, identifying leaks as production runs.
To detect leaks. Pressure testing identifies cans whose seal is not sound, so that leaks and integrity failures are found in production rather than after the cans have reached the customer.
Yes. Existing end lines can be upgraded. As with other PROCAN equipment, feasibility depends on machine condition and requirements, and an upgrade can cover controls, formats, safety systems, or automation.
Yes. Can end production can be automated. The level of automation is one of the specifications defined during project planning, and it also affects the number of operators the line requires.
Tooling condition and process control. As with the other stages of the line, the condition of the tooling and the consistency of the process settings determine the quality of the finished end.
To cure the sealing compound. Drying follows the lining stage, so that the compound applied to the end is properly cured before that end is seamed onto a can body.
