Automated Capping Machines

Shemesh Automation offers a complete range of automated capping machines tailored to meet capping requirements across the food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, cosmetics, and nonwovens sectors. Our automatic capping machines can be seamlessly integrated into your existing production line, regardless of whether they currently include Shemesh machines. Whatever your product type, Shemesh has the ideal bottle capper solution for you.

The Capping Process: How Shemesh Machines Fulfill Your Needs

The capping process is a vital step in packaging because it ensures product integrity, safety, and extended shelf life. It involves sealing bottles securely using different cap types, which prevents contamination and preserves the quality of the contents. Let’s explore how Shemesh Automation’s machines tackle each stage of the capping process effectively:

• Preparation: The system must clean and orient the bottles correctly. Shemesh machines integrate effortlessly with your existing production line to ensure that bottles are always in the correct position, enabling efficient capping.
• Cap Feeding: An efficient cap feeding system is essential for smooth operation. Our capping machines feature advanced feeding mechanisms that deliver caps accurately to the sealing point, minimizing jams and maintaining continuous production.
• Cap Placement: Accurate cap placement is key for a secure seal. Shemesh’s servo-driven systems position caps precisely relative to each bottle, significantly reducing the risk of misalignment and ensuring optimal results for various cap types.
• Capping Mechanism: During the capping stage, the mechanism applies the necessary torque to seal the cap securely. Our machines, such as the THORO and ALANTRA, offer digital torque control, allowing precise adjustments through the HMI interface. This feature helps prevent leaks and preserves product integrity.
• Quality Control: Quality control is the final step in the capping process. Our automated capping machines feature advanced quality control systems that verify cap placement and closure. This ensures that only bottles with properly sealed caps reach the consumer, maintaining high product standards.

With Shemesh Automation’s advanced automated capping machines, you can optimize your capping process while ensuring superior quality and efficiency. Our dedication to innovation and reliability means that we provide solutions tailored to your specific packaging needs.
