Beverage Filling in Automatic Mode
4.1
–
It is recommended to can the beverages as cold as possible through a glycol chiller unit or from
a cold taproom with some sort of insulation to the Cannular.
Capping on foam is essential for reduced dissolved oxygen in your final product. Adjusting the First
Stage Fill in the Parameter settings may help this. But ultimately it will come down to adjusting how
the beverage is being dispensed to the Cannular. E.g., adjusting pressures, temperatures and the
length of hosing used.
From our testing we found that 2m of 5mm x 8mm EVAbarrier from a keg at 2.4 CO2 serving volume
connected to a G40 Icebank chiller, then a small 0.5m hose length of 5mm x 8mm.
That was then dispensed at approximately 25psi.

Calibrating to Achieve Correct Double Seam Specification
on B64 Can ends
The Cannular Full Auto Canning Line should already be calibrated upon arrival however if it has gone
out of specification during transit or over the course of its life you may need to adjust the position of
the rollers to achieve a hermetic double seam which is within tolerances.
We recommend customers check the specifications on the seam every 50,000 cans or once a year to
ensure the cans remain within allowable tolerances. If you find that the seam measurements are
outside the allowable tolerances of a B64 seam then follow the instructions below to adjust the
position of the rollers in relation to the chuck.

Setting the Roller Height (y-axis)
Undo the lock nut on the thread above the roller you need to adjust the height of.
Then adjust the height of the roller by rotating the thread clockwise or counter clockwise to the
desired height of the roller relative to the chuck. Then set the height by tightening the lock nut
firmly.
After adjusting the roller height and before operating the Cannular it is vital that you check that
the roller does not make contact with the chuck.
To confirm this, disconnect the air supply to the
unit. Then manually push the roller towards the chuck (so that the piston is fully actuated) then spin
the roller with your hands to make sure it does not hit the chuck.
