This heavy duty commercial pneumatic capping machine is ideal when you have an air supply and a need to close a lot of bottles of the same height. The machine is able to close bottles from 5½” to 16″ in height, and features two capping heads, one for the American standard 26mm crimp beer bottle cap, and the other for the European 29-31mm crimp bottle cap (which fits many kinds of European beer bottles). The 29-31mm cap may also to be used for inserting plastic mushroom champagne corks into wine bottles. It fits bottles from 1¾” to 6″ in diameter. A unique hinged safety shield is easier to use than other models with fixed safety shields.
This machine is featured with dual air valves, so both black air valve levers must be always pressed at once to be activated caping of the bottle (which prevents an operators hand from getting crushed by the capping head). An adjustable bottom bracket makes it easy to set up your chosen bottle size so your bottles will be always properly under the capping head, saving a lot of time when you have a lot of bottles to closing.
Requires 4-6 bar of air pressure (max 125psi) for crown caps or 2-3 bar for plastic caps . Includes a quick disconnect air fitting that will screw onto a male 1/4″ NPT air inlet for attaching your pressure air hose.
Production capacity : from 500 up to 600 bph (depends on operator’s ability).
