Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for aligning printing plates on printing cylinders to provide an image or indicia on metallic cylindrical containers.

Abstract: The invention describes a lid for a container comprising an edge region (2) for sealing and permanent connection to a container body comprising a body portion and a bottom, and a substantially flat central region as a panel or lid surface (3), on which at least one projecting pin-like or post-like guide element (7?, 7?, 8) is formed extending from the panel (3) towards one side or the other substantially parallel to an axis (9) perpendicular to the lid surface. The posts can guide additional elements which are intended to form a functional unit with the lid.

Abstract: A sheet metal cover for sealing the body of a beverage enabling a high internally pressurized beverage can to be formed, wherein said cover is embodied in such a way that it is possible to mount an initially separate re-sealable device. The sheet metal cover can also be configured in such a way as to maintain pressure stability. It maintains stackability and it resembles as close as possible a standard shell, at least in the external edge design thereof, such that modifications in the filling line can be kept to a minimum. The sheet metal cover and a folding edge (11) which surrounds said panel and which is adapted such that it can be folded onto a peripheral edge of the body of the container and is suitable therefor. The panel has a large dimensioned opening (15) which is surrounded by an encircling strip (15) which is axially offset in relation to a plane (E) of the surface of the opening.

Abstract: A device for sterilizing the inner surfaces of pressure sensitive containers with ionized particles has an evacuable chamber which takes up the containers. The electrodes allocated to a container and charged by an alternating voltage, are arranged outside of but closely surround the respective container. The container is subject to equal pressure from the inside and the outside, and the inner surface of the container to be sterilized is also essentially the plasma-limiting wall.
