Cap feeder choices
A project may involve a bowl, elevator, chute, track or pick-and-place style route depending on the closure. The right method is chosen around sample behaviour.
03
When manual placement is still better
For small batches, frequent changeovers or complex closures, manual cap placement may be more flexible and cost-effective than automatic feeding.
Send your bottle, cap and output details to Lancing UK.
