INTRODUCTION
The DIXIE M odel 25D-700-TW IN-AL is adaptable for
closing containers from 1½" to 4¼" diameters, up to 7" tall.
Change parts are required for closing each size container.
The M odel 25D-TW IN-AL is designed with an air lift
assembly to raise containers into position with the seaming
rolls and chuck. The Model 25D-TW IN-AL may be
equipped with a single or dual switches to activate the air lift
and subsequently the seaming cycle. Alternatively, it may be
equipped with a sensor switch and programmed at the factory
for a built-in delay, suitable for your container, to allow
adequate time to place containers in the seamer before the
sensor switch activates the air lift to raises the containers into
position for the automatic seaming cycle. An average
capacity is 30 cans per minute depending on container size
and operator dexterity.
