Elgin, IL – August 14, 2025 – Earthrings today announced the release of the CB350 Low-Speed Ring Applicator, a semi-automated can-ring application system designed for breweries and beverage producers seeking a balance between efficiency, reliability, and eco-conscious packaging.

The CB350 helps bridge the gap for operations that have outgrown manual applicators but don’t yet require high-speed, large-scale automation. Built with welded rectangular steel tubing, epoxy-painted framework, and advanced pneumatic and sensor technology, it delivers precise, consistent ring placement — at speeds of up to 150 cans per minute (CPM).

Key Features of the CB350:

Production throughput of up to 150 CPM
Durable, brewery-floor-ready steel construction
Adjustable conveyor height from 40" to 50"
Smart sensors to avoid downtime (infeed, downed-can, discharge backup, out-of-rings)
HMI alarm messaging and external status tower light
Eco-friendly fiber-based ring compatibility, costing 30% less than plastic alternatives

Designed specifically for Earthrings’ recyclable, fiber-based beverage rings, the CB350 helps breweries cut packaging costs while meeting growing consumer demand for sustainable solutions.

“Our CB350 Applicator is built for breweries ready to make a sustainable change without slowing down production,” said Earthrings. “It’s rugged, reliable, and designed to help breweries meet their green goals while saving on costs.”
