This video shows how the Kinex Cappers® SA™ Capping Machine with bottle activated backstop is used to tighten 24mm mist spray caps onto containers. To cap a container, the operator places a cap loosely onto the bottle and then places the bottle onto the base of the machine and against the integrated switch on the backstop. When the bottle pushes the switch, the capping motor descends onto the cap and tightens the cap in less than a second. When the capping motor has completed tightening the cap to the desired torque, it will automatically shut off and then retract to its starting position. The perfectly capped bottle can be removed from the capping machine.
The Bottle Activated Backstop includes a built-in switch that initiates the capping process when the bottle is pressed against it. It eliminates the need to press a foot pedal or dual push buttons and as a result increases the speed and productivity of the capping process.
The Bottle Activated Backstop accommodates bottles up to 6.50 inches in diameter and is constructed of 304 stainless steel and hard coat anodized aluminum for outstanding corrosion resistance.
