Automatic Inline
Bottle Capper

Model TruCap-X-Vert — Vertical Wheel Feeder. Simple. Economical.

The TruCap-X-Vert is an automatic inline bottle capper built on a heavy-duty 304 stainless steel C-frame, with independent spring-loaded capping discs for better torque control and misalignment forgiveness. A vertical wheel (pin-style) cap sorter feeds caps in a single orientation and size — the simplest, most economical feeder option, well suited when you're running one consistent cap across your production.

The TruCap-X-Vert runs on a welded 304 stainless steel C-frame designed to mount directly over your existing conveyor. Independent spring-loaded capping discs handle torque and bottle misalignment better than fixed-spindle designs, and torque can be adjusted while the machine runs when the pneumatic clutch option is purchased. Capping heads are stainless steel and FDA-approved polymer, adjustable while running without opening the safety covers.

A vertical wheel (pin-style) cap sorter feeds caps in a single orientation and size — the simplest, most economical feeder option, well suited when you're running one consistent cap across your production. Container height adjusts from 1" to 14" tall (optional power height adjustment), and the machine works across a wide range of containers with no change parts needed.
