The Cannular Canner comes in several different variations. No matter what size you are operating at the Cannular Canner offers a solution for you to start canning your beer!
The Cannular Pro is a semi-automatic can semaer that is easy to use, reliable and beautifully simple!
Whether you are a brewery looking to offer canned beer to go or a homebrewer wanting to keep your creations fresh and fully protected from the light, the Cannular is the answer. This bench top unit is one of the most compact and easy to use can seamers you will find. The Cannular only requires one person to operate and each can takes roughly 3 secondes to seam. With a two-person team, one person filling and one semaing, the Cannular becomes a suitable option for nano breweries doing small canning production runs.
The new Semi-Auto Pro model will guarantee that you get a consistent seaming process every time! Unlike the less expensive manual can samer, this machine has no lever for the seaming operation, meaning it's even easier for the operator to seam the can consistently and will not vary on how hard the operator is pulling the lever.
The Cannular Pro table sapcer is epcially designed to work with all standard 202 cans, including industry favorite 16 oz and 12 oz cans, as well as the 500 mL (16.9 oz) and 330 mL (11.2 oz) Can Fresh Aluminum Cans. The Pro Model features an adjustable platform that allows you to raise or lower the table spacer depending on what size can you are seaming.
The Cannular Pro can also be adapted for use with 32 oz Crowlers (Ball 300 can/end) although it does require you to purchase the Chuck for 1L (32 oz) Crowlers separately.
The Cannular Pro can also be adapted for use with Tin Plated Steel Cans for food packaging applications. (But the 100mm Chuck needed for this operation is also sold separately.)

Operation:
The beauty of the Cannular lies in how truly simple it is to operate, and the semi-automatic pro model makes canning beer even easier. With only three points of operation, it only takes a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the machine. The seaming process is as follows:
- Place lid atop the can and place the can on the table spacer
- Turn the platform lever clockwise to raise the can to the seamer
- Press the seaming operation button then wait for the can to stop spinning
- Turn the platform lever counterclockwise to lower the can
That's all there is to it!
Construction:
The Cannular was designed to be compact, durable, and safe to operate in a wet environment. The platform assembly is made from 304 grade stainless steel, so no matter how messy your canning gets, there's no need to worry about rusting or degradation. The body of the unit is made from hammered sheet metal and fastened together with stainless steel screws. Rubber feet help keep the unit from slipping and sliding while in use. In addition, the Cannular features built-in brackets near the feet so you have the option to mount the machine to your counter or benchtop. The Cannular runs off of 24V DC power via the Anderson socket located on the back. This lower voltage was chosen specifically to make the unit as safe to use in a wet environment as possible.

Power:
As noted above, the Cannular comes with a 24V DC Anderson socket located on the back of the unit. It does not, however, include a cord and plug. This unit uses the more powerful Pro Model Power Supply, which provides enough power to seam tin plated steel cans as well as aluminum cans.
Why Cans?
So why can when you can bottle? There's no doubt that canning has become a more and more popular format for packaging beer among craft breweries over the last several years, and with good reason. Aluminum cans aren't just more environmentally friendly than bottles, since cans require less energy to transport and recycle, they're also much better at protecting the quality of the beer. Whereas bottles allow in light, which leads to skunking, aluminum cans offer 100% protection from UV and other wavelengths of light that are harmful to beer. There's still great debate surrounding whether cans or bottles are better at keeping beer fresh, but if done correctly, cans are theoretically the superior option. When a crown cap is crimped onto a bottle, the lining of the cap can form an imperfect seal on the bottle, allowing small amounts of oxygen in, as well as small amounts of CO2 out. Over time this can result in oxidation of the beer and lost carbonation. Seamed cans, on the other hand, form a much better seal that can prevent these issues. Of course, it's important to make sure that the can is purged of oxygen before being filled, and that the can lid is sealed atop foam to eliminate oxygen from the headspace. Aside from all the "sciency stuff", cans are just plain safer. Take your beer backpacking, camping, or poolside and rest assured that broken glass won't ruin your day!

Please note: When you receive your cannular the rollers have been set and tested at the factory. They should not need adjustment for 100,000 cans. The table, however, comes unadjusted and getting it set up correctly is very important to getting a proper seal. Cannular's test show that a .4mm (.015") actual overlap is all that is needed to seal to 90 PSI. The proper table tension takes a little practice and expect to waste a few cans getting it dialed in. Once you learn the proper tension re-adjusting it is very quick and easy. You want the tension to be tight but not so tight as to dent the can. Use cans at your fill height with water for proper tension adjustment.
