Can seamers are essential workhorses in food and beverage operations. These high-speed machines demand reliable lubrication to prevent wear, protect components, and keep operations running efficiently. With a complete line of seamer-focused solutions, JAX delivers food grade performance that meets the needs of every product type and processing environment.
In this article, we’ll cover the uses and benefits of JAX Angel-Guard® Fluids, JAX Magna-Plate® 78, and JAX Magna-Plate® 78E.
JAX Angel-Guard® Seamer Fluids
100% Synthetic | NSF H1 Registered | Micronox® Technology| Kosher Pareve Certified
Built for high-speed performance, JAX Angel-Guard Seamer Fluids are fully synthetic, food-grade lubricants designed to handle various beverage products, including beer, soda, juices, and mineral waters. They offer superior wear and corrosion protection and are formulated to align with the filtration and contamination control needs of today’s advanced seaming systems.
JAX Angel-Guard Fluids 100D and 150D are demulsifying lubricants intended for can closers processing low fructose or corn syrup products where minimal migration of processed product to the lubricating fluid is present. They provide optimum water and contamination separation characteristics for easier filtration and lower filter pressures. Making these fluids more compatible with the filter system and easing the water separation characteristics ensures the oil system has optimum wear protection and filtration performance. This results in enhanced seaming equipment performance and longevity.
Angel-Guard Fluid E is a fully synthetic fluid intended for can closers and re-circulating seamers processing products containing higher levels of fructose or corn syrup sweeteners where migration of the product to the lubricating fluid is an ongoing issue. In these cases, oils without emulsifying characteristics do not have the ability to dissolve and carry away sugars that may plate out on lubricated parts. Emulsification is important in terms of allowing machines in this environment to run at optimum efficiency without concerns regarding moderate product migration to the oil system.
JAX Magna-Plate® 78 & 78E
White Mineral Oil-Based | NSF H1 Registered | Micronox® Technology
For processors who prefer white mineral oil-based lubricants, these solutions deliver proven protection and performance across a wide range of applications, such as can seamers, gearboxes, and overhead chains and cables. They are known for EP (extreme pressure) performance, exceptional cold and high-temperature tolerance, and corrosion protection, making them an excellent choice in demanding processing environments.
Magna-Plate 78 is a demulsifying lubricant intended for can closers processing low-fructose or corn syrup products where minimal migration of processed product to the lubricating fluid is present. It provides optimum water and contamination separation.
Magna-Plate 78E is an emulsifying/dispersant lubricant intended for can closers processing products containing higher levels of fructose or corn syrup sweeteners. Like the Angel-Guard® Fluid E, this oil has the ability to dissolve and carry away sugars that may plate out on lubricated parts and cause component wear.
