Quality By Vision Can Height Gauge: Beverage Cans

Brought to you by Quality By Vision, our specialist metal package testing brand, our simple but accurate can gauge is relied upon by companies across the metal packaging and beverage industries. 

Why is measuring cans important?

The can height value is critical to ensure a successful double seaming closure. Inconsistent can measurement results can indicate key problems with the seam closure. While working with inaccurate can height measurements can lead to major production issues.  

Doubly useful can gauge capability    

We want to make your job of measuring cans as simple as possible. So we built the Quality By Vision can height gauge to accommodate two can sizes in its standard format. Plus it comes with an adaptor for measuring 330ml beverage cans.
