    Abstract: An image control system (600) for a can decorator (100) includes an electronic can decorator control assembly (602), a mechanical can decorator control assembly (604) and a number of sensors (606). The electronic can decorator control assembly (602) includes a programmable logic circuit (610) and a number of modules (612). The mechanical can decorator control assembly (604) is structured to be, and is, operatively coupled to at least one of an ink fountain ink application adjustment assembly (500), a ductor roll assembly duty cycle adjustment assembly (654), a printing plate cylinder assembly axial adjustment assembly (656) or a printing plate cylinder assembly circumferential adjustment assembly (658). The electronic can decorator control assembly (602) is structured to be operatively coupled to the mechanical can decorator control assembly (604). Each sensor in the number of sensors (606) is structured to measure a can body applied image characteristic and to generate an image signal including data representing the can body applied image characteristic.

    Abstract: A can curing oven (20) including a housing assembly (30), a transfer assembly (70), and a number of heating units (102). The housing assembly (30) defines a generally enclosed space (34). The transfer assembly (70) is structured to support and move a number of can bodies (1). The transfer assembly (70) includes an elongated transfer belt (72). The transfer belt (72) is movably coupled to the housing assembly (30) and is structured to move through the housing assembly enclosed space (34). The number of heating units (102) are structured to generate an effective amount of received heat.

    Abstract: A bodymaker (10) includes a rotating crankshaft (600) including an offset crank (602), the adjustable eccentric assembly (620) including an eccentric shell assembly (630). The eccentric shell assembly (630) is operatively coupled to the crankshaft crank (602). A primary connection rod (300) is operatively coupled to the eccentric shell assembly (630). A ram assembly (12) is operatively coupled to the primary connection rod (300). The ram assembly (12) includes an elongated ram. In this configuration, the ram reciprocates over a stroke that is a function of the orientation of the eccentric shell assembly (630). Further, in an exemplary embodiment, the ram assembly (12) is structured to adjust the range of the ram body (30) stroke through a die pack (16) without substantially decoupling a number of substantial components.

    Abstract: A domer station (10) having a domer assembly (12), a housing assembly (14), and a stacked piston assembly (60) is provided. The domer assembly (10) is movably disposed within a domer body passage (40) located in the housing assembly (14) and structured to move between a forward, first position and a retracted, second position. The stacked piston assembly (60) includes a plurality of pistons (62), preferably three pistons (62A, 62B, 62C), disposed in series and a pressure supply (50). The pistons (62) are disposed behind the domer (12) in pressure chambers (64). The pistons (62) have a constant pressure applied thereto and are biased towards the domer (12). The pistons (62) are, however, each restrained by a stop (80) and do not contact, or operatively engage, the domer (12) when the domer is in the domer first position.

    Abstract: An alignment assembly (60) for a press assembly (10) is provided. The alignment assembly (60) includes a number of alignment elements (62). The alignment elements (62) include a number of moving alignment elements (70). The moving alignment elements (70) are coupled to an upper tooling assembly (18) that moves between a first and second position. As the upper tooling assembly (18) moves, the moving alignment elements (70) move between a first position and a second position corresponding to the upper tooling assembly (18) first position and a second position. The moving alignment elements (70) are structured to move the shell (1) from the initial alignment position to an intermediate alignment position. Thus, as the upper tooling assembly (18) moves from the first position to the second position, the moving alignment elements (70) contact a shell (1) and move the shell (1) from an initial alignment position to an intermediate alignment position.
