Jar Capping Machine
Products Description
Widely utilized in cosmetics, food, packaging, health care, and pharmaceutical industries, jar capping machines provide perfect capping solutions customized to meet the unique needs of various products.
If you're filling salsa, pickles, cosmetics, nutraceuticals, or chemicals, loose lids ruin product and reputation. Manual torquing is slow and inconsistent. We supply Jar Capping Machine for relentless production, delivering factory-tight seals every time.
Products Introduction
In my three decades supplying robust packaging machinery to American manufacturers, I've seen firsthand the transformative impact of automated capping. Manual capping simply can't compete with modern production demands for speed, consistency, and cost control. A well-chosen jar capping machine isn't just an expense; it's an investment that pays dividends through reduced waste, minimized labor costs, guaranteed seal quality, and enhanced line throughput. Whether you're sealing salsa in Texas, cosmetics in California, or pharmaceuticals in New Jersey, the right capper is fundamental.

Working Principle
Chuck Capping (Dominant for Jars):
- Jar Presentation: Filled jars enter capper via starwheel or belt.
- Cap Placement: Caps fed from vibratory bowl orienter onto jars.
- Chuck Engagement: Spring-loaded spinning chucks descend onto caps.
Torque Application:
- Spinning: Chucks rotate cap at high speed to start threads.
- Torque Control: Chucks slip at preset torque value (mechanical clutch or servo-controlled) ensuring tight seal without over-torquing.
- Height Adjustment: Chucks auto-adjust for jar height variations.
- Discharge: Capped jars exit to downstream labeling/packaging.
Benefits & Advantages
- Perfect Seal Consistency: Eliminates human error in manual torquing.
- Reduced Product Loss: Prevents leaks, spoilage, and costly recalls.
- Higher Line Speeds: Automates critical bottleneck step.
- Lower Labor Costs: Replaces multiple operators.
- Minimized Breakage: Controlled torque protects fragile jars.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should torque be calibrated?
Spin cappers (belt-driven) lack precise torque control. Chuck cappers provide calibrated, repeatable torque – essential for glass jars and critical seals. Spin cappers risk over-tightening/breakage.
Why am I getting broken glass?
Top causes: Excessive chuck downforce, torque set too high, misaligned jars hitting guides, or defective/jerky infeed. Check settings and jar handling first.
What causes crooked or cross-threaded caps?
Usually: Misaligned cap on jar before chuck descent, worn/dirty chuck heads, or jar not presented vertically. Ensure cap placers and guides are precise.
Do I need different chucks for plastic vs. metal lids?
Often yes. Plastic lids may require softer chuck pads or different grip patterns to avoid marring. Metal lids need aggressive knurling. Consult manufacturer specs.
