USPE offers several disciplines of chuck capping technology. We offer single-head semi-automatic to fully automatic 10-head fully automatic rotary cappers. The chuck capper uses a stationary pick-off to merge the cap to the bottle in a continuous motion and rotary pick and place cappers for a wider range of cap styles. The bottle is contained by Starwheel- indexing for precise bottle presentation and neck position for cap placement and tightening. The cap chucks are designed with mechanical or magnetic chucks to apply the specific torque. Caps are oriented by selected cap sorting devices. The Cap Orienting Elevator, Centrifugal Bowl Sorter or Vibratory Cap Sorter are some of the choices of cap orienting devices offered for the range of caps required by application and customer’s needs. USPE automatic chuck cappers allows for the widest range of caps and bottles with minimal change parts.
