Capping Machines
The most complete range of capping machines for a wide range of applications from linear cappers, high speed rotary cappers, pump / spray trigger tightening and change-parts.
Our UK manufactured capping machines have been designed and developed to provide an unrivalled combination of precision, quality and reliability.
We have a unique range of different systems including:
- Single Spindle Capping Machines – designed for low output speeds up to 40bpm.
- Linear Capping Machines – designed to offer maximum flexibility with speeds up to 80bpm
- Rotary Capping Machines – designed for higher output & more dedicated production needs with speeds up to 240bpm.
We cover the complete range of closure applications including:
- Screw-on Caps
- Press-on Caps
- Roll-on-Pilfer-Proof (ROPP) Caps
- Dispensing Pumps
- Spray Triggers
- Ultrasonic Welded Caps
The type of tightening technology selected depends on each individual application but our range of capping machines have been developed to offer:
- Friction / Magnetic / Hysteresis Clutch tightening
- Standard electronic servo-controlled tightening
- Advanced calibrated torque sensor tightening
Change-over between formats has been simplified by adopting SMED (Single Minute Exchange of Die) principles that allow not only the bottle change-parts to be changed over quickly but the cap feeding change-parts too. Typical product change-overs can be completed in under 15-minutes with minimal fuss and instant return to maximum production efficiency.
Rotary Capping Machines
Our higher speed rotary capping machines can be supplied with up to 10-heads and achieve speeds of up to 240bpm. Both ‘traditional’ magnetic clutch and ‘advanced servo-controlled’ tightening technologies can be used.
Other advanced options include:
- (SS) Servo Scroll – provides total scroll feed-worm control should a capping head need to be switched off for any reason.
- (ECL) Electronic Cam Lift – provides configurable control on the vertical movement of the capping head.
- (DTA) Dip Tube Alignment – provides configurable control on the alignment and insertion of dispensing pump and spray trigger dip tubes.
- (STA) Spray Trigger Alignment – provides radial control and alignment of spray trigger devices relative to container orientation.
Suitable of screw-caps, push-on caps, dispensing pumps, spray triggers and ultrasonic cap welding applications.
Linear Capping Machines
This revolutionary new style of machine removes the need for expensive bottle change-parts and allows the machine to be mounted over an existing conveyor system and moved between production lines.
With a range of bottle handling systems including:
- (PG) Pneumatic gate feeding
- (FS) Feed-worm scroll feeding
- (CM) Continuous move / transfer system feeding
Both ‘traditional’ magnetic clutch and ‘advanced servo-controlled’ tightening technologies can be used. Maximum output speed depends on the number of capping heads and bottle handling system selected but typically up to 80bpm is easily achievable.
Suitable of screw-caps, push-on caps, dispensing pumps, spray triggers and ultrasonic cap welding applications.
