The main 380 V switch and integrated operator protections simplify start-up and shutdown, while the rotary architecture provides smooth, synchronized motion of bottle handling and capping turrets. Safety interlocks on the glazed guarding help ensure secure, user-friendly operation. Quick mechanical adjustments support format changes for different closures within the machines application range.Production Line Integration CapabilitiesDesigned for seamless integration into a used bottling line or as a standalone module, the capper can be synchronized upstream with fillers and downstream with labeling machines, inspectors, and secondary packaging equipment. Its rotary design and compact footprint facilitate placement on existing conveyors. The machine is suitable for capping on PET and glass bottle handling lines and can interface with typical line controls for coordinated starts, stops, and alarms.Machine Condition & Maintenance HistoryManufactured in 2001 and maintained to industrial standards, this second hand capper is presented in operational condition and ready for installation. Stainless steel construction, CE compliance, and intact safety guarding indicate professional use within beverage production environments. Detailed service records and format kits can be evaluated during technical inspection.Operational Performance & VersatilityThe 8-head rotary configuration delivers steady throughput with uniform torque and closure integrity, supporting consistent sealing quality essential for beverage packaging. Its single-stage design targets standard screw-cap applications with precise alignment and tightening on cylindrical bottle formats. The stainless steel frame enhances hygiene and durability, making it suitable for wet zones and washdown routines commonly found in industrial packaging.Installation Requirements & Site PreparationFor site readiness, provide a 380 V, 50 Hz electrical supply and a compressed air source at 0.6 MPa with approximately 6 Nl/min air consumption. The cappers compact rotary footprint allows integration into existing conveyor layouts. Ensure adequate clearance for operator access to the glazed doors and for routine maintenance. Level flooring and proper anchoring are recommended to maintain turret stability and capping accuracy.Safety Standards & Compliance CertificationCE marked for regulatory compliance, the machine includes glazed safety guarding with door interlocks and emergency stop functions to protect operators during production and maintenance. Stainless steel construction supports hygiene standards typical of beverage production, while the OEM control cabinet centralizes safety and operational controls for straightforward, compliant operation within modern bottling equipment lines.
