COVER

Fund

Top of the container. In general, it presents a series of mouldings to increase its mechanical strength. It is attached to the body by means of the locking. St must be the same as the bottom and its dimension determines the cross-section of the the container.
NON-OPENING LID
RUEGA
Background of the easy-open lid. The rectangular lid is equipped at one end with a tongue that connects to an incision in the panel parallel to the trayThe opening is done with a small key, similar to the one used in the “decollage” type decollage” type containers which is housed in the tongue; by turning it, the lid panel is rolled over it. panel of the lid following the line of weakening produced by the incision. In the area of the tongue the close does not have lid hookThe airtightness is low. As a consequence, this lid is only applicable to “semi-cans” (canned products without process).

EASY-OPEN LID
TURA

Easy open lid

Cover with an incisionin the form of a closed line that weakens the metal and is equipped with a ring. whose nose or end is incised on the incision. By raising the ring and stretching it, the area defined by the slit is torn, allowing the opening. They can be of two types: partial opening (for liquids) in which only part of the liquid is torn. panel panel of the lid or full opening in which the cover panel is completely detached. panel.
INITIATED COVER

Curly top

See curly top.
FLAT COVER A type of cover that lacks mouldings, i.e. its profile is smooth, also used to refer to a cover with a flat flange.
CURLY COVER

Lid started

Type of cover equipped with external curl, i.e. it is equipped with a curled flange.with external flange. It is the most common type.
PLUG
(FRICTION LOCK)
Circular disc-shaped part with a lateral outer skirt that is applied to the rim in a friction sealcontainer. for industrial products (paints, etc.) allowing the sealing of the mouth of the container. There are several types (triple, double and single friction) and different designs.
PLUG
(INDUSTRIAL PACKAGING)
Threaded or press-fit cylindrical part that seals the gland mouth of an industrial container.
CROWN CAP Tinplate or TFS used for the closure of narrow mouth glass bottles (carbonated beverages and beers). It is provided with a series of lateral corrugations by means of which it is fixed to the mouth of the container, which gives it the appearance of a crown, hence its name. In popular slang it is called “chapas”.
GLASS JAR

Glass flask

Wide-mouth glass container used for food preservation (appertization) that normally has a special finishon the mouth (rim, rock threads, notches, etc.) that allows the lid to be securely attached to the container.
TEMPER

Temple

See tempering.
TEMPLE

Temper

Hardness of tinplate. In truth it is the hardness of the base steel. It is measured with a durometer on the Rockwell 30-T scale on the tinplates type simple reduced.

TFS

Sn-free steel.
Chrome-plated sheet metal

“Tin free steel also called tin free steel or chrome plate.

Shear

See shear
INK Coloured pasty liquid applied (by means of a press or printer) on laminated metal (tinplate or other) for decoration.. There are four basic ink colours (red, blue, yellow and black), the others are obtained by mixing them.
CIRCULAR SCISSORS

SHOOT
(HOJALATA)

Band

Each of the long, narrow pieces that result from passing a metal sheet through a cuttingmachine.. They can be used directly in presses for the manufacture of bottoms or be subjected to a second cutting operation to produce bodies bodies.
THROW A GRAPH This expression is used to reflect the action of obtaining in graphical form the value of the temperatures in the different zones along a lithography furnace.. It usually reflects simultaneously the temperatures of five points that correspond to the center and the four corners of an ideal sheet of paper that would run the furnace.
TOP COAT
(VARNISH)
This is the name given to the last varnish applied in a system of several varnishes, i.e. the one that covers the previously applied varnishes.
TORO
(TWO-PIECE PACK)
A toroid-shaped rim that externally delimits the dome on the body of a two-piece container.. It takes the place of the closing from fund in a three-piece container and is therefore the contact area of the bottom seal on a flat surface in its normal position.
TRASLAPE
(CLOSING)
Overlap between the hook of the lid ( or bottom ) and the hook of the body at theclosure
TRESBOLILLO How to position on a strip the cuts of the backgrounds They are lined up in two parallel rows but offset in the middle, so that the end of those in the first row corresponds to the middle of those in the second row. This results in significant savings in raw materials by reducing the cutout as it allows you to bring your centers closer together.
TRIPLE CLOSURE
(FRICTION LOCK)

Triple friction

Form of closure between the cap and the rim of a container for industrial products. (paints, etc.) by means of which there are three friction-locking zones. Positioning them in an imaginary cross section would be two parallel vertical lines and an innermost point. In other words, the plug is gripped on the rim by two concentric cylindrical walls and a circumferential friction line.
TRIPLE FRICTION
(FRICTION LOCK)

Triple locking

See triple lock

Tool or tool that is placed on a machine (press) to perform the die cutting operation .
TROQUELING Operation of coining a piece starting from a flat metal sheet. In the metalworking industry, the most common case is the manufacture of caps and bottoms. This is a combined operation of cutting and lightdrawing of the material.
TWIST-OFF
(COVER)
Metal cap for glass bottle, equipped with several nails that are fixed to the threads of the bottle mouth .. In order to achieve the hermeticity, it is applied in its interior a gasket that is pressed against the rim of the jar mouth. jar.
