FILTEC provides a full range of solutions to inspect aluminum containers, including:
According to the Environmental Protection Agency, aluminum cans contain 68 percent recycled content compared to just 3 percent for plastic bottles in the United States. It has never been a better time to switch to aluminum from less sustainable packaging materials.
However, flaws in aluminum cans can be alarmingly frequent and messy, especially when the aluminum is lightweighted for sustainability and cost savings. Puncture holes left undiscovered can ruin full cases of product, and low-filled cans trigger customer complaints if allowed to reach the market.
FILTEC offers a wide variety of solutions for aluminum cans to ensure only the top-quality canned foods and beverages reach the consumer. Our integrated and modular solutions inspect cans for:
- Dirt, grease and residue
- Dents, damages and cracks
- Correct seam and closure
- Proper pressure
