Aluminium packaging is setting new standards for sustainability and performance in today’s manufacturing world. At the heart of this progress are advanced polyurethane rollers, engineered to optimize every step of the production journey.
The Production Journey—Where Precision Meets Innovation
Creating aluminum cans and bottles involves a series of carefully controlled stages:
- Stamping thick-walled aluminium discs into precise shapes
- Internal and external lacquering for protection and aesthetics
- Multi-color printing to deliver vibrant, brand-ready designs
- Finishing and automated packaging for consistency and speed
Polyurethane rollers are essential throughout these stages. Their customized hardness and dimensions ensure flawless priming, accurate ink application, and smooth finishing—supporting high-speed lines and consistent quality.
Materials That Make a Difference
Polyurethane stands out for its durability, chemical resistance, and ability to maintain exact tolerances under demanding conditions. These rollers are designed to handle a variety of inks and coatings, minimizing waste and maximizing efficiency. Their adaptability allows manufacturers to tailor roller specifications to the unique needs of each production line.
Products and Materials for Metal Packaging
- Varnish rollers for base and top coat application (LUCTEC–CA)
- Decorator / inking rollers for printing application (LUCTAN–CA)
- Applicator rollers for base metal coating (LUCTEC–CA)
Advanced polyurethane technology not only boosts operational efficiency but also supports sustainability goals by reducing energy use and material waste.
Continuous Improvement
Success in packaging manufacturing relies on ongoing collaboration and innovation. Regular evaluation and the introduction of new roller solutions keep processes at the cutting edge, driving both reliability and product advancement.
