PNEUMATIC SCALE TC Mechanical Rotary Capper


About this machine
About this technology
Pneumatic Scales’ TC capper is ideal for practically any container. 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. Magnetic torque units provide accurate mechanical torque control.
Caps are transferred to the capping chuck by cap transfer arms or 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 PSA’s Magnetic Torque Unit, guarantees accurate torque control without wear parts or constant maintenance. Our unique design eliminates the ratcheting effect found in other cappers on the market, which causes premature “wear and tear” and inconsistent torque.
