Automatic Single Head ROPP Capping Machine Manufacturer & Supplier In Great Britain
Automatic Single Head ROPP Capping Machine Details
For bottling lines requiring dependable sealing at controlled speeds, a single-head ROPP capper offers the ideal balance between automation and flexibility. Across Great Britain, pharmaceutical liquid manufacturers, beverage bottlers, wineries, and distilleries operating in regions such as London, Birmingham, Coventry, Leicester, Nottingham, Manchester, Leeds, Sheffield, Bristol, and the South East rely on compact automatic capping solutions that deliver consistent torque, tamper evidence, and minimal downtime.
The Automatic Single Head ROPP Capping Machine is engineered to meet these requirements. Designed for continuous operation, it provides precise roll-over pilfer-proof sealing for aluminium caps while maintaining ease of changeover and stable performance for medium-speed production lines across the UK.
What is an Automatic Single Head ROPP Capping Machine
An Automatic Single Head ROPP Capping Machine is a rotary indexing capping system designed to apply aluminium ROPP caps onto bottles using a single capping head. The machine performs controlled rolling of the cap skirt onto the bottle neck, ensuring a tamper-evident and leak-proof seal.
This machine is suitable for glass, plastic, and PET bottles used in pharmaceuticals, beverages, wines, spirits, and nutraceutical liquids. Its single-head configuration makes it ideal for manufacturers who require consistent sealing quality without the footprint or complexity of multi-head rotary systems.
Manufactured by Technogen Enterprise, the machine reflects robust construction, hygienic design, and production-focused engineering.
Working Principle (Step-by-Step)
Bottle Infeed
Bottles are transferred via the conveyor and guided through adjustable guide rails toward the capping station.Bottle Positioning
The bottle is accurately positioned under the ROPP capping head using a cam and follower-based indexing mechanism.No Bottle–No Cap Control
The machine ensures that capping occurs only when a bottle is present, preventing cap and product wastage.ROPP Cap Application
Aluminium ROPP caps are fed through the selected cap feeding system and placed onto the bottle neck.Sealing Operation
The single ROPP capping head rolls and seals the cap onto the bottle with controlled pressure. Sealing force can be adjusted to suit different cap sizes.Safety & Jam Detection
Safety clutches and sensors stop the machine in case of bottle fall, outfeed jam, or emergency activation.Bottle Discharge
The capped bottle exits smoothly for downstream labelling or packaging operations.
