Frequently Asked Questions
What types of caps can the Posicrimp automatic capping machine handle?
The Posicrimp is designed for crimping spray pump closures used on perfume and Eau de Toilette bottles, as well as septum caps commonly used on pharmaceutical vials. It accommodates cap sizes of 11, 13, 15, 17, 18 and 20mm, making it suitable for a range of specialist bottle and closure formats.
How does an automatic crimp capping machine work?
A crimp capping machine secures a closure around the neck of a bottle or vial by mechanically forming the cap to create a secure fit. The Posicrimp uses dedicated crimping heads to apply closures consistently, making it suitable for applications such as perfume spray pumps and pharmaceutical vial septum caps. This automates a process that would otherwise require manual crimping.
How fast can the Posicrimp crimp bottles and vials?
The Posicrimp can achieve production speeds of up to 60 bottles per minute, depending on the application and configuration. It is available with either single or twin-head operation, allowing the machine to be specified according to production requirements. Actual output will depend on bottle size, closure type and the cap feeding arrangement.
Can the Posicrimp be integrated into an automatic filling and capping line?
Yes. The Posicrimp is designed for inline operation and can be integrated with automatic liquid filling machines to create a complete filling and capping system. Caps can be supplied manually or through automatic sorting, feeding and placement systems, depending on the application. An ATEX-certified version is also available for suitable applications involving flammable substances.
