The basic soda can seems so simple and, well, basic, but how do they make them? And so quickly? This video from Discovery covers the details of how to churn out 2,000 cans a minute with no mistakes allowed.
Seriously, I don't get why some people get all bent out of shape when people bump old topics.
*Oh my goodness, someone made a comment on an old thread! OMG!*
It's silly...
Tin plated steel, eh? And it looks like they use magnetics rather extensively to hold cans on the belts. I wonder how different an Al can production line looks!

That's a bit harsh, I hadn't seen this before and thought it was really interesting.

That's awesome! Also the way they wrapped up the cans in tape or plastic or whatever (at around 1:05) is awesome!
