The Rotary Novus Chuck Capper is a fully automatic, capping machine with cap pick-up and placement assemblies. The machine configuration allows left-hand or right-hand flow with production rates up to 50 BPM per spindle. Uncapped containers are supplied to the capper infeed worm by a conveyor that can also be provided by Dillin.

As a container enters the capper, a sensor detects its presence. If a container is not detected, the appropriate cap is prevented from entering the cap starwheel. As the spindle assemblies rotate about the turret, they move vertically by means of a cam. The cam is designed to accurately position the cap chuck over the various pick-up and release points of the cap. Adjustments can be made to the magnetic clutches for various torque requirements.
