Schuler Group collaborates with TMC for aluminium bottle production

<p>Schuler group, the world's largest press manufacturer, entered into a partnership agreement with Japan&rsquo;s DWI Bottle Cans specialist TMC. The reason behind the move is the rising demand for Drawing and Wall Ironing (DWI) bottle cans.</p> <p><img style="vertical-align: middle; display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="http://www.alcircle.com/uploads/images/schulergroup050417.jpg" alt="news" width="398" height="272" /></p> <p>The Drawing and Wall Ironing (DWI) is used in the production of bottle cans as they require fewer materials than former extruded bottles. Specialists predict that such aluminium bottles will be produced more in the future over aerosol cans. The trend has grown from Japan to the USA and now also to China.</p> <p>Schuler managing director Johannes Linden, who heads the "Systems" division said, "TMC brings its tool and process know-how to the cooperation and we have our experience with the construction of metal packaging presses as well as our worldwide service offer.&rdquo;</p> <p>{googleAdsense}</p> <p>&ldquo;This gives our customers the ideal conditions to profit from a success of the Bottle Cans in South America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa."</p> <p>TMC is the producer of aluminium bottles and has established a machine that helps in creating the bottleneck (Bottle Necker).Schuler provides high-performance Cupper and highly flexible ServoCupformer as well as Bodymaker with a complete mass balance (BodyFormer).
