Match the capper to the container and closure system. Compare feeding equipment, installed heads and the evidence available for application consistency.
- Which closure types and feeding systems are installed?
- What settings, test records and format parts are available?
Inspect closure application and feeding
Observe a representative run, noting feeding interruptions, rejected closures and the available application checks. Record the heads, settings and tooling used. Have the relevant specialists assess the evidence against your intended closure specification.
Verify identity and scope
Match serial plates, year, manuals, electrical drawings and the seller’s equipment list to every module offered.
Inspect condition
Check wear parts, lubrication, bearings, product-contact areas, safety systems, controls, obsolescence and visible modifications.
Test with evidence
Whenever possible run the equipment with representative product and formats, recording speed, rejects, alarms and changeover requirements.
