About Pneumatic Scale PC

BW Packaging's Pneumatic Scale Pump cappers are ideal for all applications using hand and finger pumps. They offer the flexibility to convert between pump capping, screw capping, press-on caps, plugs and overcaps, providing greater versatility, line efficiency and cost savings. Magnetic torque units provide accurate mechanical torque control.

With a variety of anti-rotation mechanisms, the Pump Capper is well-suited for a broad range of container styles. Customized turret pockets control non-round containers, while a gripper belt or clamp table can be added to hold round containers. Because the machine holds each container securely until capped, spilling, slipping, scuffing and crushing are eliminated. Caps are transferred to the capping chuck via a cap disk, and an optional inspection/rejection system isolates containers with missing pumps or straws, or high or incorrectly oriented pumps.

Eliminating container slippage guarantees accurate torque control. The Pump Capper maintains positive straw control during insertion via a cam-operated stem guide. Once inserted, the Pump Capper fully tightens the pump to a pre-set torque, eliminating the need for a retorquer. The PC Capper holds each cap securely during torque application, eliminating scratching.
