Metering Machines

Metering systems are one of the first range of products Cannon developed approximately 50 years ago and are still one of the core-businesses of the company. The experience developed over the years brought Cannon to a leading position in the market; the continuous research keeps the company ahead. High precision, temperature control, wide range output, different possible ratios and compositions, together with customer-dedicated services and machines are the secret for Cannon dosing units success. Easy to program, operate and maintain, Cannon machines are available in high pressure (either pump or piston driven) or low pressure (gear pump) versions.

Refrigerators Plants

For several decades, Cannon has been active in the sector of domestic and industrial refrigeration, supplying and contributing to the success of all the most important players in the field. It has been estimated that more than 60% of the world’s production involves Cannon equipment, which even in this established range of applications is continuously evolving to match the customer’s needs. From mixing heads to dosing units and foaming fixtures to drum units, one of Cannon’s strengths is the supply of turnkey plants for the customer.

slabstock foam lines

Slabstock Lines

Cannon has been manufacturing dedicated plants for the continuous production of flexible polyurethanes for over fifty years. Slabstock foams, mainly devoted to furniture, bedding and packaging applications, can be produced with single block technology and with continuous or discontinuous lines. CarDio™ technology blown foams use natural carbon dioxide as an alternative-blowing agent in order to produce low density CFC free foams, with further advantages in quality and costs.

chemical storage tanks

Tank Farms

Cannon has extensive experience in the provision of bulk storage tanks and tank design. We assist customers with both the provision and design of bulk storage tanks and the relative pipework, to ensure that all equipment is supplied correctly at the right size and operating pressures and to ensure that all chemicals are being pumped correctly, which is very important when constructing a new plant and buying new machinery.

composites preformers

Preformers

In the field of reinforced plastic it is crucial to obtain perfectly shaped preformers. Cannon has always been the leading company in preforming technology due to the continuous research process which allows us to provide cutting edge solutions. The reinforcement is accurately heated and draped by means of intelligent grippers and hold-slip frames onto suitable preforming molds, giving the customer a custom-made machine for the production of the desired preform.
