Automatic Cap Feeder – Efficient and Reliable Solution for Capping Line Performance
The automatic cap feeder is a key component in achieving consistent and efficient cap delivery for automated capping lines. This hopper-fed vertical caps elevator ensures a high-speed, jam-free cap flow, reducing manual handling and increasing productivity. With its stainless steel construction and precision design, the automatic cap feeder integrates seamlessly into various production environments.
Streamline Production with a Reliable Cap Feeding System
Designed for versatility and durability, the system includes a hopper, vertical elevator, and optional horizontal belt – delivering unmatched efficiency in cap handling. Whether you’re handling screw caps, snap-ons, or trigger pumps, this automated cap feeder ensures steady supply and smooth operation.
Key Components
- Stainless Steel Hopper: A high-capacity bin that stores a large volume of caps and feeds them steadily to the elevator. Available in various sizes to suit different production rates.
- Vertical Elevator Conveyor: A cleated belt conveyor that gently lifts and optionally orients the caps before feeding them into the cap sorter or bowl. Designed for durability and minimal maintenance.
- Horizontal Belt Conveyor: Facilitates a smooth and gradual transition of caps to the elevator, helping to maintain continuous flow.
