Lo mshini wokuthunga we-can othomathikhi noma obizwa ngokuthi i-can seamer usetshenziselwa ukuthunga zonke izinhlobo zamathini ayindilinga njengamathini, amathini e-aluminium, amathini epulasitiki namakani ephepha. Ngekhwalithi ethembekile nokusebenza okulula, iyimishini efanelekile edingekayo ezimbonini ezinjengokudla, isiphuzo, ikhemisi nobunjiniyela bamakhemikhali. Umshini ungasetshenziswa uwedwa noma kanye neminye imigqa yokugcwalisa yokugcwalisa.
Kukhona amamodeli amabili ale mishini ye-automatic can seamer, eyodwa iwuhlobo olujwayelekile, ngaphandle kokuvikelwa kothuli, isivinini sokuvala silungisiwe; enye iwuhlobo lwesivinini esikhulu, ngokuvikela uthuli, isivinini sishintshwa yi-frequency inverter.
