SENSORS
FOR CANMAKING

Sencon sensors have been refined over many years to include important features that make for reliable, long lasting performance and peace of mind. These sensors need to keep working in the harsh and demanding environment of a metal packaging plant. They must be static-safe, resistant to shock, oils and humidity, and be able to operate in a wide temperature range. Sencon has many decades of experience making sensors that help you get on with the job of making quality packaging products

PRODUCT NEWS

Small Changes, Big Impact

Sencon’s new 445 can line sensor — an updated version of the hugely popular 345 sensor typically used on mass conveyors — includes design features that enhance reliability and flexibility.

Same sensor, different features

The new SCM387 control module brings extra functionality to our 387 short can sensors and replaces the need for separate bodymaker and interface control modules, saving installation time and valuable space.

FLOW CONTROL PROBLEM SOLVERS

Maintaining the flow of a 2-piece canmaking production line requires precise coordination between machines and line controls to reduce backups and smooth out production flows.
