Automatic chuck cappers are designed to place a threaded cap
onto a rigid container and precisely torque the cap to a specified application
torque. These machines are often used for caps that can only be vertically placed
on a container. These capping machines are also used to place caps on
containers where containers are very small or
irregularly shaped or have wide mouths with flexible side walls. Unlike
straight line or "inline" capping machines, the chuck capper provides
both the cap and container with a high degree of positive control and
very high repeatability.
This type of capping machine also solves the problem of particulation of polymer
tightening surfaces of other straight line capping methods.
VL25 Capper with
Integrated Bulk Sorter
"RoboCap" Small
Frame Chuck Capper
Typical Applications:
Spice jars, large mouth jars, small reagent bottles,
high precision or high torque nalgene bottles.
Standard Configurations:
Depending on the application, Inline Filling Systems can
offer either a "strip pick off" configuration or a "pick and place"
configuration. A strip style capper is quite economical but not suited
for all cap geometries. Your sales engineer can guide you to the right
choice.

Feature:
Integrated
Induction Sealer This is truly an original, unique and value-enhancing idea
offered by Inline Filling Systems; a (optional) programmable induction
sealing system is integrated with the capping portion of the machine,
thereby providing two packaging solutions simultaneously in a very small
and economical footprint.
Sorter Selections
Inline Filling Systems Snap Cappers
can be provided both with a specific sorter as well as a bulk elevator
feeder for maximum efficiency.
