"The DAC-H165 cupping press has proven to be a very good investment. The press provides us with many technical solutions that help increase our production. Changing the die set is much quicker, and we are able to automate many processes. We want our guys working on can production, not standing around making sure the press will run."

“We’ve had Minsters at Brunk since the 1970’s. We have some of the original machines still in operation, and quite frankly they’re just as good as when we bought them.”
