PNEUMATIC SCALE SC Servo Rotary Capper
About this machine
About this technology
Pneumatic Scales’ SC capper is ideal for practically any container. Servo motors ensure accurate torque control, which is critical to producing a proper seal. Customized turret pockets control non-round containers, while a gripper belt or clamp table can be added to hold round containers. Because the machine holds each container securely until capped, spilling, slipping, scuffing and crushing are eliminated.
Caps are transferred to the capping chuck via a cap disk, and since timing is integrated with the turret, cap pickup is extremely reliable. Allowing ample time for each cap to seat itself eliminates misaligned caps, even at high speeds.
Eliminating container slippage, along with the use of servo motors, guarantees accurate torque control without wear parts or constant maintenance. The SC capper’s design provides in-process control using the servo’s precise torque control, feedback and diagnostic capabilities. Capping application torque accuracy is ± 1inch-lb. or better, across a range of 5 to 30 or 15 to 100 in-lbs. Contact us today to speak with one of our capping experts about the goals of your project.
