Thomas Packaging, Rolling Meadows, IL 847 392 1652 www.thomaspackaging.com Bottle capper Acrobat Chuck Capper offers precision torque and gentle handling without costly bottle change parts. Unit is available in single- and dual-head formats capable of processing up to 90 bottles per minute, ideal for manufacturers pro- ducing multiple SKUs. Unit's parallel belts eliminate the expense of making and storing change parts for most bottles. For small bottles, only minor, inexpen- sive parts are needed for fast, easy changeover. Capper's servo-driven operation provides accurate, repeatable torque control, and unit can perform counterclock- wise thread seating. System uses a two-chuck system, which features a "chasing chuck" that automatically locates the next bottle along the belt, allowing the belt to serve as a spacing tool and eliminating the need for costly, time-consuming change parts.
