Gripper capper Equatorque PP

asepticpress-onrotary

Overview
Equatorque PP is a rotary capping machine driven by brushless motors for rotary-spindle control. The cam for spindle vertical movement can be linked to turret angular position or set by time, allowing cycle replication independent of turret speed for consistent inertia control.

Application

• Press-on overcaps
• Press-on covers for cans
• Flex spouts
• Press-on flip-top caps
• Plastic inserts
• Pressure covers
• T caps
• Press-on caps
• Plastic caps with pourer (non-refillable)
• Spoon dispensers
• Aerosol caps
• Press-on caps with irregular geometry

Performance
SPEED PRODUCTION: up to 1,200 bpm – 72,000 bph
CLOSURE HEADS: closure grippers

Version

• ULTRACLEAN / ASEPTIC: designed for intensive chemical cleaning; separation between capping and external zone via plenum / hydraulic labyrinth
• WASHABLE: stainless-steel components; full washdown capability ensured by seals and labyrinths

Options

• On caps chute: overturned-caps automatic ejector, N2 injection device, ionizer / dust extraction, UV lamp, caps washing
• Quick format change: sorter (manual or automatic), caps chute (toolless standard execution), body-guide assembly (toolless standard execution), ending terminal
• Others: motorized height adjustment, multibody equipment, caps elevator, bottle-neck cleaning, caps buffer
