Automatic Single Head Screw Capping Machine Manufacturer & Supplier In Great Britain

Consistent and secure screw capping is a vital requirement for liquid packaging operations across pharmaceuticals, food, cosmetics, and chemicals. Manufacturers operating in Great Britain, particularly in industrial and manufacturing hubs such as London, Birmingham, Coventry, Leicester, Nottingham, Manchester, Leeds, Sheffield, Bristol, and the South East, demand capping machines that deliver accuracy, speed, and operational reliability.

The Automatic Single Head Screw Capping Machine is designed to meet these expectations. Built for controlled, medium-speed production lines, this machine ensures precise screw cap application with minimal downtime, making it an ideal solution for regulated and commercial bottling facilities across the UK.

What is an Automatic Single Head Screw Capping Machine

An Automatic Single Head Screw Capping Machine is a fully automatic system designed to apply screw caps onto bottles using a controlled torque mechanism. The machine handles bottle movement, cap detection, and capping in a synchronized manner, ensuring uniform sealing quality across every container.

This model is suitable for a wide range of bottle sizes and screw cap formats commonly used in pharmaceutical syrups, beverages, edible oils, cosmetics, and chemical products. Its compact footprint and automatic operation make it especially suitable for manufacturers seeking efficiency without complex multi-head systems.

Manufactured by Technogen Enterprise, the machine reflects robust engineering and industry-focused design.

Working Principle (Step-by-Step)

1. Bottle Infeed and Conveying
   Bottles are transferred through a stainless steel slat conveyor and guided smoothly toward the capping station.

2. Cap Detection
   Screw caps are supplied via the selected cap feeding system. A photoelectric sensor monitors cap presence in the delivery chute and stops the machine if no cap is detected.

3. No Bottle–No Cap Control
   The machine ensures that capping occurs only when a bottle is correctly positioned, preventing cap wastage.

4. Screw Capping Operation
   The magnetic hysteresis screw capping head applies the cap with controlled mechanical torque, ensuring consistent tightening without damage.

5. Synchronized Motion
   A single motor synchronizes the conveyor, star wheel, and platform turret for smooth and stable operation.

6. Bottle Discharge
   After capping, bottles are discharged seamlessly for downstream processes such as labelling or packing.
