Sliver can control - has a volume monitor and mechanism to halt drives for can exchange

摘要

In filling a rotating can with sliver, the can rotary drive is temporarily halted when a full can is to be exchanged for an empty can. The silver is severed, and the leading end of the new charge of sliver is caught under the funnel wheel to be passed to the empty can, when the can exchange operation is completed. The system allows high capacity working with small dia. cans, without sliver loss.
