DC Norris North America is introducing the AutoCan 1000 by DC Norris to the North American market. A high-efficiency can processing system capable of processing up to 1,000 A10 cans per hour, the AutoCan 1000 improves productivity for food manufacturers. By combining can pre-rinsing, opening, emptying, washing, and crushing into one system the AutoCan 1000 minimizes floor space requirements and maximizes labor efficiency.
TRAVERSE CITY, Mich., Feb. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Designed for industrial-scale can processors, the has easy-to-change components that allow for quick adaptation to different standard can sizes.
"The AutoCan 1000 addresses the common bottlenecks in can processing," said Dick Smith, President of DC Norris North America. "It simplifies high-volume production by integrating multiple functions into a single machine, allowing one operator to manage the process efficiently and safely while reducing labor, utility, and floorspace demands."
Key Features of the AutoCan 1000:
- High Throughput: Processes up to 1,000 A10 cans per hour (listen to a discussion with DC Norris North America's President Dick Smith about what impacts throughput )
- Multi-Functional: Rinses, opens, empties, washes, and crushes a variety of can sizes in a single-operator unit
