Automated production of containers, kegs, boilers, pots and pans

Precisely scaled to application area and output

Production plants for Containers, kegs, boilers, pots and pans by KURTH + HEUSER

The concept

KURTH + HEUSER develops and manufactures machines for all individual process steps involved in automated high-volume series production of containers as well as entire systems. Proven standard components are coordinated and can be integrated, for example with robotic systems, into high-performance manufacturing systems.

Highlights

  • As in-line solution or stand-alone concept
  • Automation according to requirements
  • Special edge preparation for laser welding
  • Economic changeover concepts up to just-in-sequence production
  • Combination of standard and custom machines
  • Remote diagnostics via LAN, WLAN or GSM
  • CE-compliant comprehensive documentation of overall system

Flexible high-precision manufacturing

Production lines from KURTH + HEUSER can be easily converted to different lengths, diameters, shapes and processing methods. To this end, a large number of individual steps such as trimming, forming, punching and joining, assembly, welding and testing are adjusted to the new task automatically and with ultimate precision. The preparation of edges for the welding process is of major importance to ensure the highest level of process reliability and a minimal number of failed parts.

High system availability

KURTH + HEUSER systems are designed for a long service life and ultimate availability: Durable individual components, proven standard components, parts from renowned manufacturers, tools with long service lives as well as a customer service for regular maintenance and adjustments to new requirements.

Processing methods

  • Trimming and preparation of edges for welding, e.g. laser welding
  • Forming and welding of shells from sheet metal blanks
  • Punching, embossing and forming of the shell for filler necks, measuring devices, handles, feet, mounts, edge attachments, etc.
  • Trimming and beading of vessel heads
  • Joining and welding of vessel heads and shells
  • Welding of filler necks, flanges, handles, feet and edge attachments
  • Leak testing of finished products
