LET’S GET STARTED
Where can we help?
Metal Preparation
Sensors for every step of metal preparation: coil cutting, sheet length measurement, and lacquer thickness control through coil lacquering and printing inspection.
Metal Forming
Inspection and control sensors for every can format you form: 3-piece welded cans, aerosols, caps and closures, crown corks, DRD cans, drums and pails, ends, and tubes
Quality Assurance
Inspection and evaluation systems for quality control of metal packaging products — flat sheets, formed cans, tubes and aerosols, foil, ends, and gauges — so every can leaving your line meets customer standards.

Innovative Sensors for Metal Packaging
Founded in 2012 and built on more than 40 years of hands-on metal packaging expertise, Innosen develops and manufactures sensors and quality assurance systems for the canmaking industry. From our headquarters in Premià de Mar (Barcelona), Spain and manufacturing in Manila, we equip canmakers around the world with reliable equipment to minimize downtime and maximize production efficiency — every day, in 70+ countries.
We Value What our Customers Value
Our history is rooted in close collaboration with canmakers, crafting tailored solutions that address real-world challenges. Many of our top sensors result directly from these partnerships, designed with canmakers for canmakers.
3-Piece (Welded) Canmaking Process
“Production does not mean just making loads of cans. They need to be cans that your customers are willing to accept – Willing to pay for.”
Luc Nelen | Managing Director, Innosen

Latest Updates
Metal Can Defects: Effects, Causes and Prevention
Critical, major or minor: not every can defect carries the same risk. Learn how to spot fractures, missing seals, corrosion and dents, what causes them in the seaming, lacquering and handling stages, and how canmakers can prevent them before defective cans reach fillers.
Why margin inspection is important and how it affects your entire production
Contaminated or lacquered sheet margins break weld wire, burn weld rolls and cause leaking cans. Learn the three most common margin defects, what causes them, and how the IS610 Plain Margin Inspector catches them before the welder.
Innosen Launches Its Coating Quality Trinity: IS860 CoatPro™, IS810 EnamelPro™ and IS1100 Innolytix®
Innosen launches three connected coating quality products for canmakers: the IS860 CoatPro™ coating thickness gauge, the IS810 EnamelPro™ enamel rating gauge and the IS1100 Innolytix® data platform.
