Cap Sorting Elevators

Cap sorting elevators are just one way that you can begin optimizing your packaging line. E-PAK is proud to offer these machines to a number of industries in order to help them realize their production goals. Cap sorting elevators are a convenient, efficient addition to any packaging line. If you’ve been looking for a way to make your packaging line work harder so that you can produce more of your packages, this may be one way to save time and streamline the packaging process.

How Do They Work?

Cap sorting elevators work by holding a stash of caps in a hopper, then when the elevator is activated, a vibrating feeder shakes the caps into the different shelves on the elevator. Caps that are positioned correctly for the capper machine are left on the elevator, while caps that are not in the correct position are returned to the hopper. From there, the caps are sent to a capper machine, where the caps are placed securely onto a container.

What Industries Use Cap Sorters?

Because cap sorting elevators can accommodate a range of different cap sizes, typically from 10mm to 110mm, they are versatile and can be used for a plethora of different products in many different industries, from the pharmaceutical industry to health and beauty, food to automotive and so much more. Cap sorting elevators automate what would otherwise be a tedious and much too time-consuming process—sorting caps to ensure they are ready to be used on containers. Instead of wasting time and money doing this by hand, consider implementing a cap sorting elevator.
