Automatic Spindle Bottle Screw Capping Machine

Automatic Spindle Bottle Screw Capping Machine

Product Description
Automatic Spindle Bottle Screw Capping Machine provide an excellent, and probably the most popular, solution for tightening screw on type closures. Automatic machines are often seen on complete inline packaging systems to offer continuous capping of a range of different screw on caps.
This Automatic spindle cappers allow bottles to receive a cap and pass through the tightening section without operator interaction, outside of supplying bulk caps to the cap feeder on occasion. This is achieved by using an automatic cap delivery system, which will typically consist of either a cap elevator or a vibratory bowl. The cap exits the bowl or elevator and proceeds down a chute where it is presented to the bottle or other container. The container strips the cap from fingers at the end of the chute and proceeds down the conveyor through the capping area. The capping area normally consists of gripper belts to keep the bottle and cap steady as well as a stabilizer to keep the cap positioned for tightening. As the bottle and cap move down the conveyor, each matched sets of spindle discs will tighten the cap a little more, until a consistent and reliable seal is obtained upon exiting the machine.
