crimping and capping machine

SCIM designs and manufactures can seamers and twist-off jar cappers. Its product range includes manual, semi-automatic, and automatic machines, special seamers for vacuum sealing, rotary tables, conveyor belts, and dosing systems. It handles metal, cardboard, composite, and plastic cans, from thirty grams to five kilograms, for single units, pre-series, or continuous industrial production runs.

Founded in 1920 by Mr. Lachaise in Périgueux, the company was taken over in 1947 by Mr. Descamps, a former technician at Carnaud, a manufacturer of can seamers and tin cans. Located in Casteljaloux, in the Lot-et-Garonne department, since 1984, it experienced renewed growth under the leadership of Jean-Claude Masset in 1997, with the development of new ranges of capping machines. The company manufactures its machines in its own workshop, leveraging its in-house expertise in turning, milling, metalwork, welding, and automation, and offers customized solutions based on customer questionnaires.
