How do enterprises choose the appropriate tinplate can production line?

Release time:2025-10-17

Our company specializes in custom tinplate aerosol cans. In this highly competitive market, selecting the right can – making production line is extremely crucial. It directly affects production efficiency and product quality, and thus determines our competitiveness in the market. Today, let’s talk about how enterprises should choose a suitable tinplate can – making production line.

Clarify Production Capacity Requirements: Calculate Your “Can Volume”

Enterprises first need to determine their production capacity based on their own situations. Just like running a restaurant, you have to estimate how many customers you can serve each day to arrange food procurement and the number of chefs. The same goes for making tinplate aerosol cans. Based on sales forecasts and market demands, calculate how many cans need to be produced per day, per week, or per month. Suppose you expect to produce 50,000 aerosol cans per month, then you need to choose a production line that can meet this production capacity scale. Here’s a small table for your reference:

Production Capacity RequirementSuitable Production Line Scale
10,000 – 20,000 cans per monthSmall – scale production line
20,000 – 50,000 cans per monthMedium – scale production line
More than 50,000 cans per monthLarge – scale production line

Consider Can Body Size and Shape: What Does Your Can Look Like?

Different products have different requirements for the size and shape of tinplate cans. For example, aerosol cans for cosmetics may be small and delicate, while those for industrial use may be large and sturdy. So, you need to choose a production line that can produce can bodies that meet your product requirements. Some production lines are very flexible, just like Transformers. They can be adjusted according to needs to produce cans of various sizes and shapes, making production more convenient for enterprises. If you need to produce a new type of round aerosol can with a diameter 20% larger than the conventional one, how would you choose a production line?

Determine the Degree of Automation: Efficiency or Cost – Saving?

Nowadays, some tinplate can – making production lines have a high degree of automation. They can automatically feed materials, form cans, and bake them, just like a super – intelligent mini – factory. This greatly improves production efficiency and reduces labor costs. However, these production lines are usually not cheap. Enterprises need to choose based on their financial strength and actual needs. If you have a large number of orders and pursue high – efficiency production, a highly automated production line may be more suitable. If your budget is limited, you can also choose a production line with a lower degree of automation but higher cost – effectiveness.

3 Core Advantages of 2025 Aerosol Can Production Lines (With Data)

① Technology: “Instant Response” to Custom Needs

  • Servo Stamping Process: Precision reaches ±0.008mm, capable of stamping 22 lid types (round, square, irregular, etc.). Even if a client requires a 0.5mm groove on the lid edge, it can be achieved accurately.
  • Flexible Configuration Design: No need to replace the entire line! For example, produce 58mm-diameter insecticide can lids in the morning, and switch to 75mm spray can valve lids in the afternoon by changing molds—saving additional equipment costs.
  • Intelligent CNC System: Real-time monitors stamping pressure (error ≤0.1MPa) and speed. If parameters are abnormal, it shuts down automatically in 0.3 seconds, helping a Zhejiang client reduce scrap loss by 92% last year.
