Can contents

The CEM 2.0 is a fully automatic can opening machine used in the food industry. In addition to cans with liquid or paste-like contents such as tomato concentrate, it also processes cans with chunky contents such as beans or pineapple.

Can formats

The CEM 2.0 was specially developed for the requirements of the food industry and adapts effortlessly to different can formats – without the need for time-consuming changeovers. The machine can open cylindrical cans to industrial standards, including cans weighing 2 kg, 3 kg or 5 kg and with a diameter of 153 mm to 157 mm. Even larger formats such as 10 kg and 12 kg cans with diameters between 230 mm and 233 mm are no problem. The CEM 2.0 enables cans with a height of 115 mm to 310 mm to be processed without the need for time-consuming format changes. This allows you to optimize your production processes and minimize set-up times.

FAQ about the fully automatic can opener CEM

When is the CEM 2.0 the right machine for me?

The CEM is a fully automatic machine that has been specially developed for conventional cans in the food and beverage industries. It is characterized by a high hourly output of up to 700 cans of any content, whether with vegetable or fruit pieces, whether with pasty or liquid products. The cans are opened, emptied, rinsed if necessary and reduced in volume using a can crushing device.

Whether you are opening just one can format in continuous operation or several formats in batch operation, the CEM is exactly the right machine for high-performance applications.

Which power connections do I need for the CEM 2.0?

The cans are opened, emptied, rinsed and crushed pneumatically. In addition to a compressed air connection, a power connection for the control unit and a water connection for flushing the cylinder piston rods are also required.

Is it necessary to exchange format parts with the CEM 2.0?

Changing from the small format with a diameter of 153 mm – 157 mm to the large format with a diameter of 230 mm – 233 mm does not entail a change of format parts. This is done automatically by pressing a button on the control panel. The punching head is equipped with 2 punching knives for both can formats.

Do different can heights with the same diameter require a format change?

No. The CEM machine controls the punching of the lids independently of the can heights.

How can I clean the machine?

The machines can be foamed, sprayed and disinfected with the cleaning agents and concentrations commonly used in the food industry.

How much product remains in the can?

The unique can rinsing device of the CEM 2.0 enables an emptying rate of up to 98% to be achieved, depending on the product.

Are the machines stand-alone machines or can they be integrated into lines?

The CEM 2.0 not only offers the option of stand-alone use, but can also be seamlessly integrated into complete production lines.

For a comprehensive production solution, we can plan and implement a complete line around the CEM 2.0. This can include a can washing system, conveyor belts for feeding full cans, removing empty cans and conveyor belts or pumps for further product processing. The risk assessment and CE certification of the entire line designed and supplied by us are naturally included in our scope of services.

If you already use existing production lines with conveyor belts or pumps, we can integrate the CEM 2.0 into these systems to increase your productivity and optimize the entire production process.
