Screw capping systems for bottling lines

Ensure airtight sealing and product integrity with precision-engineered screw capping machines designed for continuous, high-speed operations across varied container types.

The screw capping machines from Della Toffola are engineered to optimize the efficiency of your packaging line across multiple industries, including food, beverage, and pharmaceuticals. Designed for seamless integration, these machines utilize a “Pick&Place” system for plastic screw caps and a “direct pick” system for aluminum caps, ensuring precise closure with magnetic friction control for adjustable sealing force. With continuous operation facilitated by an efficient cap distributor equipped with a “no cap” sensor, these machines maintain high throughput without compromising on quality. Suitable for a variety of end products such as screw-capped wine bottles and pharmaceutical containers, the system is also adaptable to handle PET, PE, and HDPE bottles with a specialized neck holding system. Constructed from durable stainless steel, the machine offers robust performance with minimal maintenance – an essential solution for maintaining production integrity and efficiency.
