Automatic Linear Capping Machine Manufacturer & Supplier In Great Britain

Inline screw capping has become a preferred choice for manufacturers seeking high speed, flexibility, and simplified changeovers. Across Great Britain, production facilities located in London, Birmingham, Coventry, Leicester, Nottingham, Manchester, Leeds, Sheffield, Bristol, and the South East manufacturing corridor increasingly rely on linear capping solutions to handle diverse bottle formats without compromising efficiency.

The Automatic Linear Capping Machine is engineered to meet these modern production requirements. With a linear motion design and minimal change parts, it delivers consistent screw cap tightening at high output rates, making it an ideal solution for pharmaceutical, food, cosmetic, and industrial liquid packaging operations across the UK.

What is an Automatic Linear Capping Machine

An Automatic Linear Capping Machine is an inline screw capping system designed to apply threaded caps onto bottles moving in a straight-line path. Unlike rotary machines, the linear design allows easy access, simplified setup, and excellent adaptability to different bottle shapes and sizes.

This machine uses a special bottle gripping belt assembly to hold containers firmly during the capping process. Caps are tightened using multiple cap tightening discs that apply controlled torque in stages, ensuring secure and uniform sealing.

Manufactured by Technogen Enterprise, the machine is designed for continuous operation, reliability, and compliance with regulated production standards.

Working Principle (Step-by-Step)

1. Bottle Infeed & Alignment
   Bottles enter the machine via the conveyor and are aligned using adjustable guide rails.

2. Bottle Gripping System
   A belt-based gripping assembly holds bottles firmly to prevent rotation during capping.

3. Cap Feeding
   Screw caps are delivered to the capping zone using either a cap feeder elevator or a vibratory cap feeder.

4. Progressive Cap Tightening
   Caps pass through three sets of tightening discs. The first discs rotate the cap, while subsequent discs re-tighten to ensure secure closure.

5. Torque Control
   Each tightening disc includes an inbuilt clutch to prevent over-tightening and cap damage.

6. No Bottle–No Cap Control
   The machine ensures caps are applied only when bottles are present.

7. Bottle Discharge
   Fully capped bottles exit smoothly for downstream labelling or packing operations.
