Some Considerations When Choosing a Capping Machine -Part#2
For those new to the industry, it may come as a surprise that the factors mentioned before for choosing a fillerwill be very similar to the factors we discussed today regarding s. The focus of these questions, however, will move from the product itself to the package - the and cap - when considering important questions regarding bottle capping machines. As we continue to move down the packaging , here are some things to think about when looking for the perfect capper.
3. What rate do I need to achieve?
Deciding what production rates are necessary will help in choosing the automation level of the capping machine for the specific packaging line. Facilities with low to medium production rates may not require completely capping machines. Instead, semi-automatic machinery or even tabletop capping may get the job done. Of course, just as we considered future growth when discussing machines, a packaging facility must consider future growth when purchasing a capper as well.

4. Can the machine handle increased production in the future?
Also like filling machines, capping machines and machines can be manufactured to allow for upgrades in the future. Tabletop capping equipment will eventually hit a ceiling as far as production rates. However, other semi-automatic capping machines can be manufactured using an automatic frame. The semi-automatic capper would require manual labor to place the cap on the bottle before introducing the combination to the machine.
However, when demand for the product grows, these semi-automatic machines can be revamped to function automatically. Generally, adding a control box and a cap delivery will turn some semi-automatic cappers into fully functional, automatic capping machines. Packagers must consider future growth and plan accordingly when choosing their initial bottle capping equipment.
5. Can the machine be integrated with other packaging machinery?
Again, tabletop capping machinery will not roll up to a power conveyor and work with automatic rinsing machines, automatic fillers, labelers, and other similar equipment. However, many of the semi-automatic and automatic machines will roll right up to an existing conveyor. Many facilities automate packaging lines one function at a time. If an automatic packaging system is a future goal, the packager needs to ask whether the equipment will continue to serve the intended needs as other packaging machines are added to the line.
Of course, every packaging project will have individual needs. Some lines may require other sealing equipment like induction sealers, neck banders, or other tamper-evident seals. Additionally, cost is almost always a factor for packaging equipment. The above questions will set both experienced and inexperienced packagers on the correct path to choosing the best capping for their packaging project. From there, working together with a packaging professional will ensure that the machinery meets all of the unique needs of the specific project.
