Control can speeds with eddy currents

A system for controlling the speed of aluminium cans on a production line has been developed by Dutch company Canline Systems. Called the Alucan Speed Controller, the system uses eddy currents to control the speed of cans passing through air or gravity tracks. This is often uncontrolled, resulting in cans traveling at high speeds at…
