Important points before you shortlist equipment
02
Torque limits
Smaller caps and necks may have tighter torque windows. The capping setup should avoid over-tightening or damaging threads.
03
Batch size and workflow
For short runs, a semi automatic capper can be practical. Higher volumes may justify a compact inline route with more controlled handling.
Send your bottle, cap and output details to Lancing UK.
