Move from manual cap placement to an automatic capping route designed around your closure, bottle stability, output target and downstream packaging line.
Lancing can help shortlist practical capping machinery after reviewing cap type, neck finish, bottle stability, output target, torque requirement and the way caps are presented to the machine.

Ask about this application →Automatic capping is normally considered when operator placement is restricting output, when torque consistency needs tighter control or when cap feeding can remove a repetitive manual step. The correct machine depends on the closure family first, not just the required speed.
Automatic lines can be based around inline screw cappers, belt and spindle cappers, ROPP heads, pump cappers, trigger cappers, bowl feeders, cap elevators and guided conveyor systems. The cap presentation method should be specified with the machine.
Send bottle dimensions, cap diameter, cap height, cap material, target bottles per minute and details of your existing filler, labeller or conveyor. These points help decide whether the line needs starwheels, side belts, indexing or continuous motion handling.
Photos, dimensions and target output help identify the most likely capping route. Physical samples are normally the best way to confirm tooling, cap feeding and bottle support.
Not always. Some compact automatic machines can still use manual placement, but cap feeding is usually considered when production speed, labour use or consistency becomes the limiting factor.
Often yes, but bottle guides, grippers, belts, starwheels and capping heads may need adjustment or change parts for each bottle and closure format.
Output depends on cap style, bottle stability, feed route and line layout. Lancing can shortlist practical options once samples and target output are confirmed.
