We design and manufacture equipment for an assortment of cardboard lids, varying in shape from round to oval to rectangular. The machines can handle push-in and twist-off tops and produce one-piece or two-piece lids, the latter being a bit more robust than the former. Furthermore, they can be built to provide tops with a valve function, allowing hot air from warm food or beverages to escape.
Let’s describe the overall production process of a two-piece cardboard lid.
Alternatively, the LFMP-STPL equipment heats, shapes and flattens the lid before adding the rim, effectively sealing the top instead of glueing it.
As described above, this is just one of many possible processes. The LFM-P machine, for instance, produces plug-in lids – the type that is pushed into composite cans. The DSO-E mechanically produces one-pieced lids, as does the servo-driven LFM-SOPL.
