Used equipment trends Gary Alexander, president of the company, told us, “On the used equipment side of things, the D&I (Drawn & Ironed) can making sector is seeing higher demand than ever before, and as a result, our inventory of this equip- ment is low. Sadly, the same cannot be said of three-piece equipment, which isn’t proving anywhere near as popular – and as a result, inventory is much higher.” Quizzed on the potential reasons for this trend, Alexander explains, “For manufacturers producing a higher volume of cans, it’s all about cost per thousand.

Nitrogen fuels can of the future

Ardagh has joined forces with vegetable canner Bonduelle to produce a ‘next generation food can’. CanTech International contributor Evert van de Weg finds out more

n a joint press release, Ardagh and Bonduelle recently announced that they have launched a new food can Ithat has enhanced consumer appeal and offers signif- icant environmental benefits. The announcement also referenced the fact that nitrogen dosing techniques were used in the filling process, which was reason enough for us to find out more about this intriguing launch. We firstly spoke with Ardagh Group’s R&D director, Phillipe Gimenez, who explains, “We are continually under- taking metallurgical research using finite element analysis Nemo, the next generation can concept techniques at our R&D centre in Crosmières, France. The aim is to numerically calculate all kinds of suitable can concepts and designs, which is aided by a pilot line we acquired eight years ago that enables us to try out vari- ous new shapes. We needed such a pilot line in order to support the development within our company of the DWI technology we had in-house in the meantime. “Several years ago, we realised that the use of nitrogen From left to right: welded and beaded three-piece food can; dosing technology was potentially ideal for use in food two-piece DWI food can (beaded); and Nemo, the two-piece DWI food can with a smooth wall canning, and during regular discussions between the

For the easy open end on a beverage can, which also has to cope with an overpressure in the can, it is a different story. That end has a diameter of 52mm and a partial opening, whereas our ends are 73mm and are the full-aperture type. Consequently, the end has to be stronger and thicker. However, we made sure the opening forces of the newly designed end remain the same as the earlier version. Many years ago, Ardagh introduced its range of Optilift easy opening ends to the market, with the best proven consumer convenience available on the market. For the Nemo cans, Bonduelle is using the Optifix version within this range.”

An exciting new look Crucial for the success of the new two-piece DWI food cans is, of course, acceptance by consumers. Turlings adds, “There is a long-held belief that to avoid The production line for DWI cans at Ardagh’s Deventer plant spoiling the contents, cans have to show up concave ends and bottoms.

of the new look of the cans, and also explains that the can is lighter and more ecologically sensible. To do this effectively, Bonduelle puts a sticker on the can – one that also details that the contents of the can are quite fresh, demonstrated by the ‘psshhht’ sound effect of the pressure release. Bonduelle carried out intensive consumer research and was highly encouraged by the positive reactions of consumers on the new food cans with their somewhat different properties.” When we asked Bonduelle to comment on its experiences with the new can, a spokesman noted that it would not comment at present as it considers the launch of the two new bean products in Nemo cans on the German market as an extended test market. However, in a state- ment Bonduelle already issued, it stated that ‘The Nemo can has many benefits for the consumer and it is a true success story for sustainable metal packaging.’ Ardagh’s history in DWI food can production Maximum sustainability In 2005, Ardagh (trading under the Impress name at the time) acquired Alcan in Gimenez comments, “The Nemo can we made for Sutton-in-Ashfield in the UK, where two-piece DWI food cans were produced on a Bonduelle is already the lightest can for food products large scale for Pedigree Petfoods.

The new beading process There was a specific market need to offer further down- gauging for can sizes larger than 0.5 , and even full litre cans. As a result, we designed a new version of Can-O- Mat that is suitable for can diameters between 99mm and 153mm in size, and heights of up to 250mm. Due to the revolution limitations in the forming process to make beads in rail-type operations, we sought to completely eliminate these operations in the new machine; replacing them with twin-roll beading and the rail seaming with roll seaming. The roll seaming requires less space, yet the infeed height is 900mm – the same height as for the smaller Can-O-Mat 1. Necking, flanging, beading and seaming have four spindles, whereas the new twin roll beading has eight spindles. Meanwhile, the new twin-roll beader has two beading rolls – one inner and one outer roll – per head. The cans are lifted up and the two rolls are clamped, to avoid deviation by the uplifted base plate.

CanTech International October 2013 27 International Focus Global growth opportunities: China and beyond

Despite the Chinese economy slowing, opportunities for can manufacturers still remain. Sheldon Ripson explains further

uch is being made about what will happen to the Chinese economy, which is set to grow in M2013 at the slowest pace in 23 years. The can making industry is watching with keen interest as the new Chinese administration faces slowing factory production and reduced investment. While some are cautious about the future in China and other portions of Asia, one of the leading systems integrators in the D&I industry believes the market will remain strong through 2014. Roeslein and Associates Inc. opened a manufacturing and construction facility in Shanghai nearly three years ago to establish a local presence in a country it believes will eventually become the largest consumer market in the world.

It takes a lot of commitment. It was a real team effort on the part of the guys who came here to set things up,” Roeslein explains. “But the sense of urgency you get when there is real work to do pushes you through some of those things. It provides the motivation to say ‘we are doing this for a reason’, rather than going through a lot of academic exer- cises that could end up costing a lot of money.”

Understanding the culture The company needed the right personnel to succeed, which required hiring local Chinese employees and quickly training them according to Roeslein’s own quality and operational standards. That meant understanding the culture which drives traditional Chinese workforce practices, where managers tend to use discipline quickly and where employees are hesitant to make independent decisions. “The first challenge is bridging the culture.

CanTech International October 2013 29 Canning Brewer moves to cans to meet demand

Since moving from glass bottles to cans, Vietnam Brewery has doubled its production. Three canning lines and a buoyant market have pushed this growth

combination of industry trends caused by rising material costs and transportation considerations Aled Vietnam Brewery Limited (VBL) to change from bottling in glass to canning. The company chose three canning lines by Sidel to be put in across two of its plants, a process that began in 2009. All of the chosen lines use vertical space where practi- cable, which takes up only half the space of the original glass lines. The crucial improvement in the canned lines, compared to glass, is that it has doubled the rate of pro- duction of the lines since the change over.

Background VBL, a joint venture between Asia Pacific Breweries Limited, Saigon Trading Group (SATRA) and Heineken NV, opened its first brewery in 1993 in Ho Chi Minh City. The brewery was, at the time, considered the most modern in the region and still claims to be the fastest, biggest and most advanced canning line in all of Vietnam. But the market has moved and the company has continued to expand, meaning that more production Thanks to the Sidel canning line, 90,000 cans of Heineken can be facilities quickly followed in other locations across the produced per hour country – at Da Nang, Quang Nam and Tien Giang. southern Vietnam with various brands including Tiger, Today, those four breweries are still owned and managed Heineken, Bivina, Larue, BGI and Foster’s. Sidel’s canning lines are the first high-speed lines Heineken has by VBL and are still serving the beer market in central and The company remains focused almost solely on invested in the Vietnamese market and has very little to do with exports. However, with sales of the majority of its brands consistently in Vietnam’s top ten annual sales list, the brewer still feels there is the potential to grow through its strong brand portfolio. Two of its main beers, Heineken and Tiger, are creating high consumer awareness and the products have generated a positive image for the company throughout the country.

New canning lines To deal with the increased demand for its products and to create future capacity for growth, VBL ordered three lines for two plants from Sidel. The first two lines were to update its first and main brewery in Ho Chi Minh city, with the third line added as an upgrade to its site in Da Nang. The order for the first high-speed canning line, for the Hóc Môn plant (in a rural district of Ho Chi Minh City) was placed in February 2009 for a 1500 cans per minute (CPM) line. That line has proved immensely successful and has

The mutual confidence gained by both VBL and Sidel in the performance and reliability of the equipment, and also in the skill and experience of the line-engineering experts and on-site technicians, let both parties collaborate close- ly throughout the installation process.

Global beer market The beer market, like many in the beverages industry, is demanding. Whilst the overall market is improving after a slump in the recession, this growth is not true for all parts of the world, as the markets of North America and Europe are declining or stagnating, at best. Yet in the develop- ing countries of South America, Africa, and particularly in Asia, demand is rising steadily.
