Take a stroll through the new can-filling line at craft brewer The Shop Beer Co in Tempe, Az. The brewer outgrew its legacy packaging line with a 6-head filler at its heart, replacing it with a 12-head rotary filler and 3-head seamer from Pneumatic Scale Angelus (BW Filling & Closing), a BW Packaging company. Also, with a wide SKU variety in a higher-mix/lower-volume environment, shrink sleeve labeling gives The Shop flexibility in decorating bright cans instead of having to meet MOQs of printed cans. Just a mile away at Handsome Packaging, bright cans are depalletized on Ska Fabricating | Depalletizers, Palletizers & Conveyance equipment, shrink labels are applied by Karlville equipment, and cans are then repalletized before heading to the brewery for normal packaging line operations. Other equipment on that line includes contributions from Modular Conveyor Express, FILTEC, Videojet Technologies, Smurfit Westrock, and Republic Manufacturing.
