Posicap ROPP
Automatic Capping Machine For ROPP Caps
The Posicap ROPP is a fully automatic single or twin head ROPP (Roll On Pilfer Proof) capping machine.
Built upon Universal’s tried and tested Posicap platform and control system, the Posicap ROPP replaces screw capping for ROPP capping heads.
ROPP or Roll-On-Pilfer-Proof caps are widely used for capping a variety of glass bottles and containers to provide a tamper-evident method of sealing.
Aluminium caps are placed on to bottles and the rotating capping head forms the cap to the bottle, creating a screw thread and perforated rim in the process.
