About Continental - 2003/2006/2008 HCM

With production speeds of up to 1200 cans per minute, BW Packaging's 2003, 2006 and 2008 HCM are among the highest quality seamers available for food and beverage canning. Expert engineering combines our pioneering double seam with faster speeds and gentle can handling. Why handle cans gently? To lower transfer shock, reduce spillage, and cut waste.

The 2003, 2004 and 2008 HCMs have been designed with the versatility to accommodate the full range of products and can sizes packed in your plant, and you can accomplish height changes in just minutes. This unique design eliminates the need for a sliding shaft and key fits found in other seamers on the market. Achieve diameter changes in just a few hours, and with optional quick-change features, diameter changes of one hour are possible.
