YohoAI's best-selling mid-range can making line - 150-250 cans/min for food, beverage, and aerosol manufacturers demanding throughput, compliance, and ROI.
The YC-150 is YohoAI's flagship mid-range automatic metal can production line, producing 150-250 cans per minute across a diameter range of 52-153 mm. Designed for food, beverage, and aerosol manufacturers, it combines two-piece D&I and three-piece seamed can capability with integrated internal coating and curing, making it the most versatile line in the YC series. FDA 21 CFR 175.300 and EU 10/2011 compliant coatings are standard.

150-250 cans/min makes the YC-150 the sweet spot for national supply chains and regional export. Servo-driven forming and seaming maintain seam integrity at every speed.
Produces both two-piece drawn-and-ironed (D&I) cans and three-piece seamed cans on the same platform, reducing capital investment for multi-product manufacturers.
Food-safe epoxy or water-based coating spray-applied and cured at 180-200 degC meets FDA 21 CFR 175.300 and EU 10/2011. BPA-NI, halal, and kosher options available.
In-line cameras and pneumatic leak testers automatically reject non-conforming cans. Optional AI-powered vision system boosts first-pass yield to 99.2%.
Store up to 200 can size recipes on the HMI. Diameter and height adjustments with tool-free cassettes. Changeover under 30 minutes between product runs.
IQ/OQ/FAT documentation, material certificates, and weld records included as standard. Equipment ships CE-marked and ready for installation in any global market.
Our team responds within 2 hours with CIF/CFR/FOB pricing and delivery timeline.
The YC-150 hits the ideal balance of throughput (150-250 cans/min), versatility (D&I and 3-piece seamed cans), and price (USD 300,000-450,000). It suits manufacturers scaling from regional to national supply, with integrated coating eliminating a separate process step. Most customers reach ROI within 18-24 months of commissioning.
Yes. The YC-150 handles both D&I and three-piece seamed cans across 52-153 mm diameter and 50-300 mm height. It produces beverage cans, canned food, aerosol cans, and pharmaceutical packaging. FDA-compliant internal coating is integrated as standard.
Typical manufacturing lead time is 30-90 days from order confirmation, plus 15-30 days sea freight depending on destination. On-site installation and commissioning takes 3-6 weeks. Early booking secures the production slot and shortens time-to-market.
The YC-150 includes a 12-month warranty covering parts and labor. YohoAI provides remote diagnostics via VPN, 48-hour spare parts shipping, and annual preventive maintenance visits. FAT/SAT protocols and IQ/OQ documentation are supplied with every line.
The HMI stores up to 200 pre-set recipes for can diameter, height, material, and coating type. Tool-free cassette changes and servo pre-positioning reduce changeover time to under 30 minutes. This supports high-mix, small-batch production without significant downtime.
Pricing varies by configuration and accessories. Please send us your specific requirements including production capacity needs, tube/can/capsule format, and required certifications. We typically respond within 2 hours with CIF/CFR/FOB pricing.
Standard delivery ranges from 30-90 working days depending on the model and configuration. Pharmaceutical GMP configurations with validation documentation packages require additional 5-10 working days. Expedited manufacturing is available for urgent orders at a 15-25% premium.
All YohoAI machines carry CE certification and are designed to meet cGMP and ISO9001 standards. Additional certifications including FDA compliance and specific food-grade standards are available depending on the product line and configuration.
The YC-150 is delivered as a fully configured production line with all stations pre-assembled and factory-calibrated. Site preparation must account for a production footprint spanning approximately 12,000 x 2,500 x 2,200 mm plus peripheral equipment clearance. Utility requirements include three-phase power (10-15 kW rated), regulated compressed air at 0.5-0.7 MPa, and exhaust extraction for the curing oven. Installation and commissioning runs 3-6 weeks on site, followed by 1-3 weeks for operator training and FAT sign-off. The HMI stores up to 200 can size recipes; pre-loading product recipes before arrival accelerates the changeover timeline considerably.
The YC-150 produces both D&I two-piece and three-piece seamed cans on a single platform, so changeover procedures must include switching the welding head mode and adjusting the seaming chuck pressure profile. With the optional AI vision system raising first-pass yield to 99.2%, calibration of camera lighting and threshold settings is a critical weekly task. Daily startup should include a 10-minute warm-up cycle for the servo drives and a purge of condensation from the air supply line to prevent moisture-related coating defects.
Preventive maintenance follows a tiered schedule: daily seam and leak checks, weekly lubrication of all linear guide rails and cam followers, monthly replacement of welding consumables and spray nozzle inspection, and quarterly PLC health diagnostics with recipe backup verification. Spare parts kits covering 12 months of consumables are included with the standard warranty package, with 48-hour international shipping available through YohoAI's after-sales service network.
