What equipment may be needed
A simple screw capper may only need a capping head and bottle clamp. Automated lines may need cap elevators, orientation systems, conveyor control, sensors, guarding and accumulation around the capper.
UK screw capper route
Screw capping equipment covers more than the capping head. Depending on output, the project can include cap sorting, cap feeding, conveyors, bottle clamps, torque control, change parts and integration with filling or labelling equipment.

Buying detail
A simple screw capper may only need a capping head and bottle clamp. Automated lines may need cap elevators, orientation systems, conveyor control, sensors, guarding and accumulation around the capper.
Semi automatic systems can keep the equipment list short. Automatic systems need more handling control so the bottle, cap and capping head meet consistently at line speed.
Cap feeding equipment is closure-specific. Size, weight, shape and centre of gravity affect whether a cap can be sorted and delivered reliably.
Include cap diameter, closure type, bottle size, target output, available space and whether the capper needs to connect to filling or labelling equipment.

FAQs
Suitability depends on cap type, bottle stability, target torque, output and whether caps are manually placed or automatically fed. Samples help confirm the correct route.
Send bottle and cap samples or drawings, cap diameter, bottle height and diameter, target output, product type, line layout and any changeover requirements.
Yes. Lancing UK can review the product, pack, closure and output requirement first, then help shortlist a practical screw capping route.
