Automatic Screw Capping Machine

The operation of an automatic screw capping machine usually involves the following steps:

1. Container feeding: The conveyor system takes containers to the topping machine after they are packed.
2. Cap feeding: The topping station, where the containers are located, accepts caps via a cap serving system, which may include a cap hopper, a cap sorter, and a cover conveyor.
3. Capping: According on the machine's design, the capping head could consist of a single head or many heads that fall onto the container and tighten the cap using flexible torque settings. According to the kind of caps being used, the cap on the head could use several mechanisms, include spindle capping, chuck capping, or snap closing.
4. Cap tightening verification: In order to ensure that the caps are properly attached, some automatic screw capping machines could have cover tightness checking devices like torque sensors or vision systems.
5. Container discharge: The containers leave the capping station after having been filled and proceed along the conveying system for extra packing or processing.
6. Machine controls: A programmable logic controller (PLC) or interface between humans and machines (HMI) is often employed to regulate the capping process. These electronics give workers control over operational factors like cap speed as well as torque.
