Abstract: A conveyor for can blanks, having a machine frame, on which at least one conveyor drum is supported so that it can rotate about an axis of rotation, wherein the conveyor drum on an external circumferential surface is provided with a plurality of can holders in each case supported parallel to the axis of rotation so that they can move linearly, and having at least one actuator system associated with the conveyor drum, configured to impart a linear movement to at least one can holder. It is provided that the at least one actuator system is configured to provide the linear movement of the at least one can holder as a predefinable function of a rotational position of the conveyor drum in relation to the machine frame.

Abstract: A trimming device for metal hollow bodies, including a machine frame on which a workpiece round table is mounted for rotation about an axis of rotation and on which a cutting device is located, wherein the workpiece round table includes a plurality of holding devices designed for holding a metal hollow body each for carrying out a trimming operation, and wherein the cutting device is designed for providing a cutting beam, in particular a laser beam, for a contactless trimming operation on the metal hollow body, wherein a drive device is designed for providing a rotary step movement for the workpiece round table is assigned to the workpiece round table.

Abstract: A processing apparatus for container blanks, with a machine bed, a feed device for feeding container blanks, a discharge device for removal of container blanks, a rotatably mounted rotary worktable with several locating devices designed for conveyance of container blanks along a circular orbit section shaped conveyance path, wherein the conveyance path determines a first circle segment shaped surface section, several operating devices lying opposite the rotary worktable in the radial direction, and at least one conveyor designed for conveyance of components of container blanks and/or for container blanks along a conveyor section between a component mounting and an assigned operating device. The component mounting of the conveyor is located in a second circle segment shaped surface section, which supplements the first surface section determined by the circular orbit section shaped conveyance path to make a full circle.

Abstract: A handling device for handling workpieces including a rotor mounted for rotation about a rotor axis, a rotary drive for introducing a rotary motion into the rotor and at least one workholder assembly, the workholder assembly including at least two workholders, which are mounted on the rotor and designed for an at least paired picking up of workpieces at a pickup position and for an at least paired delivery of workpieces at a delivery position during the rotary motion of the rotor, and further including adjusting system, which is coupled to at least one workholder of the workholder assembly, and which is designed for a cyclical adjustment of a spacing of workholders of the workholder assembly as a function of the rotary motion of the rotor.
