-  No cooling water circuit required
-  Teh system operates without the aid of lateral guide
   rails in the heated area
-  The previous gas-air mixture preparation system or
   electric control system, respectively, remain unchanged
-  Existing gas burners or electric hot-air convectors,
   respectively, no longer require adjustment following
   diameter alterations
-  The three previous drive motors for can body conveyors
   (feed, delivery and longitudinal) can continue to be used
-  The current locations of the welding machines and
   elevators in the production lines need not be altered by
   the conversion
-  Original parts, service and guarantee from the manufacturer
