To calculate the thickness of the double seam, the following formula is used:

Thickness of double seam = 2 * thickness of body + 3 * thickness of cover + 0.14 mm

This formula takes into account the thickness of the can body, the thickness of the lid and an additional value of 0.14 mm for the sealing material. By using this formula, you will be able to determine the correct theoretical setting of the sealing thickness in the second operation of the sealing process.
