DESCRIPTION
A single-head screw capping machine is designed to apply screw-type caps onto containers like bottles, ensuring a secure and consistent seal. It features a single capping head that rotates to tighten the cap on each container as it moves along a conveyor system. These machines are versatile, handling various bottle shapes, sizes, and cap types, and are commonly used in industries like pharmaceuticals, food & beverages, and chemicals.
KEY FEATURES AND ADVANTAGES
Versatile :
Can accommodate different bottle and cap sizes with minimal changeover time.
Precise Capping :
The machine applies the correct torque to each cap, ensuring a proper seal and preventing damage to the cap or container.
Automatic Operation :
Containers are fed onto a conveyor, and the capping head, guided by a star wheel, applies the cap as the container passes underneath.
Adjustable Settings :
Features like adjustable conveyor height and capping pressure allow for customization to different container types.
Robust Construction :
Built with durable materials, such as stainless steel, for longevity and reliability in industrial environments.
Safety Features :
May include sensors to detect cap presence and stop the machine if a cap is missing, preventing issues like bottle breakage or jamming.
APPLICATIONS
Pharmaceuticals :
Sealing bottles of syrups, dry syrups, and other liquid medications.
Food & Beverages :
Capping bottles of juices, oils, and other food products.
Chemicals :
Sealing bottles of chemicals, solvents, and other liquid products.
Cosmetics :
Capping bottles of lotions, creams, and other cosmetic products.
Other Industries :
Used in various other industries that require screw-type capping.
BENEFITS
Increased Efficiency :
Automated capping process speeds up production compared to manual capping.
Reduced Labor Costs :
Fewer workers are needed for the capping process.
Improved Product Quality :
Consistent and accurate capping ensures a reliable seal and minimizes errors.
Reduced Downtime :
Robust construction and safety features minimize downtime due to maintenance or repairs.
