Abstract: A device to grip and handle a metal container, obtained as an extruded, deep-drawn or deep-drawn/ironed metal rough piece, especially suitable for use on high-speed machines intended to perform, in a sequence, a plurality of mechanical working operations or other sort of working on the metal container, and including a first or lower portion that is fit to interface-connect the device to the machine both at the working stage and at the transfer stage of the high-speed machine from one working station to the one coming next, and a second or upper portion that is adapted for firmly gripping the metal container during the handling and the entire working sequence of working operations.

Abstract: A process and apparatus to make an edge or a collar featuring a complex structure on extruded, deep-drawn and deep-drawn/wire-drawn metal rough pieces with which bottles for the beverage and food sector or for technical use are particularly obtained, suitable for the application of a closing cap and fit to use on a tapering machine. The process includes a starting operating stage to deform an upper end portion of a metal holder by turning it outwardly so as to obtain an edge or a collar with a basically circular section, one or more intermediate operating stages to deform the edge or collar by squeezing in the radial direction and stretching towards the bottom of the metal holder, a final operating deformation stage to obtain an edge or collar with a complex ovoidal profile for the application of at least two caps of different types.

Abstract: An apparatus (10) for working on metal containers, especially suitable for high speed machines and intended for performing a sequence of operations on the metal containers themselves including a chain composed of a plurality of elements (12) linked in a succession and cooperating in simultaneous transporting and processing of metal containers.

Abstract: Apparatus (10) for continuously performing localized and/or extended deformations on metallic containers constituted by extruded or drawn and solid-drawn tubular bodies including: —A) interface module (1); —B) at least one work module (2, 2?, 2?) and —C) possibly one inversion module (3), wherein said modules are arranged so that they form a closed path and said interface module (1) includes a feeding station or drum (12), an unload drum (16) and at least one selective dispatch element for re-feeding the containers to the work modules (2, 2?, 2?) or the unload drum (16), depending on the number of predetermined operations.

Abstract: A device (10) for selective and progressive locking of metal containers (18) to be submitted to mechanical deformations along an extended part of side surface and provided at the bottom by a notch (20), the device having: a circular plan support (12) with an end forming a housing mouthpiece (14) of a containing body (16); a shaped and mobile ring (22) eventually cooperating with an annular seal or membrane (24) placed at the mouthpiece wherein the containers (18) are inserted starting from their respective bottom.

Abstract: A process for the shaping of the side surface of a metal body or container (10) such as an aerosol or a beverage bottle for food or technical use, obtained by progressive deformation operating steps of its side surface carried out in sequence on a machine having an intermittent rotating table, an opposite alternate translatory motion plate, a loading drum, gripping pliers of the bodies, deformation and possibly embossing and/or debossing tools and an unloading drum of the same bodies, the process including the steps: feeding the bodies (10) on the machine provided with an intermittent rotating table and of an opposite translatory motion plate; gripping the bodies along a limited area (12) between 10.0 and 35.0 mm, of their side surface from the bottom with a fixed or an axially rotating gripping plier; carrying out a broad deformation (18) on the side surface of the bodies (10) with tools working from the inner and/or outer part of the same bodies.
