How It Works – Crown Cap Sealing Operation
Technogen's TGCROWN-50 is designed to deliver consistent capping precision, minimal downtime, and operator-friendly functionality.
Step-by-Step Process:
Bottle Loading
Bottles are fed onto the stainless steel slat conveyor, where they are guided by star wheels made of durable UHMW / Delrin material.Cap Sorting
Crown caps are sorted and oriented via a high-speed vibrator bowl feeder, ensuring that each cap is properly aligned before application.Cap Pickup & Placement
The crown capping head uses a shut pick-up mechanism (single cam-controlled) to pick and place the crown cap precisely on top of the bottle.Sealing
The crown corking head seals the cap firmly, ensuring a leak-proof, tamper-resistant closure ideal for pressure-sensitive beverages like beer or soda.Post-Sealing Inspection (Optional)
With PLC or HMI upgrades, inspection systems can be integrated to check cap fitment.
