Filed:

Jul 13, 2000
Appl. No.:

09/445477
Inventors:

Mark S. Selepack - Jackson TN
Theodore E. Blakely - Henderson NV
Harry L. Lawrence - San Antonio TX
Jackie S. Ivy - Jonesboro AR
Charles Pridmore - Bowling Green KY
Assignee:

Nichols Aluminum - Golden, Inc. - Houston TX
International Classification:

C22F 104
US Classification:

148552, 148551, 148692
Abstract:

The present invention provides an improved process for continuously casting aluminum alloys and improved aluminum alloy compositions. The process includes the steps of continuously annealing the cold rolled strip in an intermediate anneal using an induction heater and/or continuously annealing the hot rolled strip in an induction heater. The alloy composition has mechanical properties that can be varied selectively by varying the time and temperature of a stabilizing anneal.

Filed:

Sep 17, 2012
Appl. No.:

13/621516
Inventors:

Mark Selepack - Longmont CO, US
Leland Lorentzen - Erie CO, US
Assignee:

GOLDEN ALUMINUM, INC. - Fort Lupton CO
International Classification:

B65D 90/02
B41F 1/26
B41F 33/00
US Classification:

220660, 101483, 101287
Abstract:

The present disclosure describes a process for applying a design to a sheet metal for use in a portion of a container, for example a cap or an end of a food container. Embodiments provide for applying a multi-color design in a single printing step to a sheet of metal to create a printed metal sheet that can then be rolled into a printed coil or cut to length. The printed metal sheet can then be cut pressed into can ends or caps. The ends or caps with the multi-color design can then be used to manufacture containers, such as a beverage container.

Filed:

Jun 4, 1997
Appl. No.:

8/864883
Inventors:

Mark S. Selepack - Arvada CO
Theodore E. Blakely - San Antonio TX
Assignee:

Golden Aluminum Company - Golden CO
International Classification:

C22F 104
US Classification:

148551
Abstract:

The present invention provides an improved process for continuously casting aluminum alloys and improved aluminum alloy compositions. The process includes the step of heating the cast strip before, during or after hot rolling to a temperature in excess of the output temperature of the cast strip from the chill blocks. The alloy composition has a relatively low magnesium content yet possesses superior strength properties.
