Intralox now offers exceptional tight-transfer modular plastic belting solutions for the canmaking industry. Eliminating the need for dead plate transfers, these tight-transfer solutions for mass can conveyance have been shown in field testing to reduce spoilage of empty cans by 70% compared to transfers with dead plates.
