ACT-8 Automatic Screw

  • The ACT-8’s unique eight-spindle design allows it to automatically place and torque various cap types at up to 200 containers per minute. The distinctive design lowers operational costs and increases the capper’s range of adjustability. It eliminates high-maintenance parts and accommodates closure sizes from 1 cm to 12 cm.Each of the eight tightening spindles on the ACT-8 can be adjusted on the fly to ensure maximum torque accuracy, decrease disk wear and closure scuffing, and allow the machine to adapt to various container types, sizes, and shapes.

    Optional gripper belts are also available for unique container types. Each capping system also features an elevator/orientator for high-speed cap delivery. 

    If you need a workhorse capper that can grow with your business and product, the Accutek ACT-8 Spindle Capper is the perfect solution.

What kinds of cap delivery system can this machine be delivered with?

We can include at least three different types of cap delivery systems. First, we can add a centrifugal bowl feeder. This is a stainless-steel bowl that uses a rotating, interchangeable star wheel to feed caps into the machine. The stomp cylinder delivery system is good for containers with skirts or caps with inside features that can’t be stripped out of a chute. Then there’s our cap elevator orientators. This all-in-one floor-level unit can load and orient closures in bulk. They can come installed with a photo eye sensor, which lets the elevator supply caps on demand.

Is the machine safe?

Yes, the machine is safe to operate, so long as your employees are being careful when using it. If you want to be especially careful, then we implore you to consult the manual. It contains a section on safety procedures, such as lockout/tagout.
