Similarly, due to the random orientation of the rolling direction 5, certain features that could be formed on the end cap 14 when forming in the favorable rolling direction orientation (such as stronger or higher breakage strength scores) cannot be formed, Because of the risk of end cap damage
Alternatively, since the end shell 8 is assumed to be in the worst possible orientation relative to the metal grain, thicker gauge material would need to be used, which inevitably increases the material cost associated with the metal end cap 14

A system and method of orienting the rolling direction of metallic objects is provided. More specifically, the present invention relates to systems and methods used to align the rolling direction of metallic objects in a predetermined orientation in a high speed manufacturing system. The rolling direction is determined by sensing grinding marks on the metallic objects. The metallic objects may subsequently be formed by tools that have been adapted to work with, or transverse to, the rolling direction. Optionally, the tools may form the metallic objects into container end closures adapted to seal a container of a predetermined size and type.
Description
[0001] References to related applications [0002] This patent application claims priority under 35 U.S.C § 119(e) to U.S. Provisional Patent Application 62 / 278,049, filed January 13, 2016, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. technical field [0003] The present invention generally relates to the manufacture of container end closures. More specifically, the present invention relates to methods and apparatus for high speed orientation and alignment of the rolling direction of a plurality of metallic end shells prior to converting the end shells into end caps by a conversion press. Background technique [0004] Metal containers offer many benefits to merchants and consumers. The metal container body provides the best protection for the product. For example, metal containers prevent carbon dioxide migration and block UV radiation, which is damaging to personal care, pharmaceuticals, beverage and food, and other UV-sensitive Color, etc. have adverse eff...
