Description
Easy open and Sanitary End Measurement System
The EPA – End Profile Analyzer is an all-in-one can end measurement system, which uses a combination of laser profiling and mechanical gauging technologies in order to measure the end.
Incorrect values on the ends can often cause major issues at the seamer like deadheads, stuck ends, false seams and bad double seams. Also, can end curl specifications are very difficult to measure and confirm today without the End Profile Analyzer.
The End Profile Analyzer (EPA) also replaces “go-no-go” gauges (like pin fit, chuck fit) and destructive measurement methods for sanitary and easy open ends which are inaccurate, time consuming and give different results for different operators. With laser profiling technology, the EPA is able to measure all important end specifications using a non-contact optical laser measurement system:
- End Material Thickness
- Outside diameter
- Inside Diameter
- Chuck Fit Diameter (an actual measurement, not go-no-go!)
- Curl Width / Seam stock (for the first time, a non destructive measurement!)
- Curl Height
- Curl Radius
- Countersink
- End flanges
- Pin Fit
- First bead height
- New: Overall end height
- New: Second countersink
- New: Chuck wall angle (optional)
- New: Countersink bottom radius (optional)
