2-Piece Paper Clip-On Lid Line (lids for cups or cans)

Fully Automated Line for the Production of 2-Piece Paper Clip-On Lids for ice cream containers, cups or paper cans by BLEMA.

The manufacture of ice cream lids basically follows the same procedure as for spiral wound can bodies. First of all a tube is spiral-wound and then cut with an in-line cutting unit into approx. 0.5 m long pieces. The sleeve is then fed to an off-line cutting unit and cut into short rings with a length of approx. 20 to 25 mm.

These rings are fed via conveyor belt to the lid forming machine. In the lid-forming machine, a cardboard disk is glued with hot glue, the upper edge is flanged to the inside and then a groove is formed on the circumference of the lid. The groove prevents the lid from sliding off the paper cup or paper can.
