FAQ about automatic linear type 6 wheels capping machine

1. Q1: What is a 6-Wheel Capping Machine and what is its main function?

A: A 6-wheel capping machine is an automated packaging device equipped with six independent capping heads. Its primary function is to automatically and accurately screw caps onto corresponding containers at high speed, enabling efficient and continuous production.

2. Q2: What types of caps and bottles is the 6-wheel capping machine suitable for?

A: The machine has a wide range of applications:

Cap types: Plastic caps, metal caps, spray caps, tamper-proof caps, pump heads, etc. (requires compatible capping heads).

Container types: Plastic bottles, glass bottles, jars, and other round-section containers.

3. Q3: What is the basic workflow of the machine?

A: The typical workflow includes:

• Cap Feeding: Caps are sorted and delivered to the capping heads via a vibrating plate or elevator.
• Cap Pickup: Capping heads pick up the caps using a gripping mechanism or vacuum suction.
• Bottle Alignment: Bottles are transported via a conveyor to the capping station and precisely aligned with the capping heads.
• Capping: The capping heads lower, grip the bottle (usually with belts or arms), and rotate the cap to the preset torque.Release: Once capping is complete, the heads lift, and the capped bottles are conveyed out of the machine.

4. Q4: How is the cap tightness (torque) set and ensured?

A:

Setting: The target torque can be directly set on the touch screen (servo-controlled).

Ensuring Consistency: The servo motor controls the torque precisely. During the capping process, the head automatically stops rotating or slips once the preset torque is reached, ensuring uniform tightness for every bottle.

5. Q5: Are there special requirements for cap feeding?

A: Yes. A stable cap supply is essential for smooth operation.

Requirements: Caps must be sorted and oriented using a vibrating plate or elevator and delivered continuously and smoothly to the capping heads.

Potential Issues: Complex-shaped caps, burrs, or overlapping caps may cause jams or missing caps, reducing efficiency.

6. Q6: What are the possible causes of loose or inconsistent capping?

A: Possible reasons include:

• Torque setting too low: Recalibrate and adjust the torque.
• 
  Mismatched or defective threads on caps or bottles: Inspect incoming materials.
• 
  Worn capping heads: Unable to grip caps properly, causing slipping.
• 
  Unstable bottle clamping: Bottles move during pressing or rotation.
• 
  Insufficient pressure (for pneumatic machines): Check air supply pressure.
