BARVAYA

The Automatic Screw Capping & Bung Pressing Machine is a dual-function, highperformance equipment designed for applying plastic screw caps or plugs (bungs) onto bottles, jars, and containers with precision and uniform pressure. This versatile machine is widely used in pharmaceutical, chemical, agrochemical, cosmetic, food & beverage, and lubricant oil industries where tamper-proof, leak-proof, and secure sealing is critical.

Built for medium to high-volume production, the machine integrates automated cap/bung feeding, accurate positioning, torque-controlled capping, and plug pressing in a seamless, synchronized operation. Its robust stainless-steel construction, intuitive PLC + HMI control system, and flexible customization options make it ideal for diverse packaging line requirements.

PRODUCT SPECIFICATION :

No. of Capping Heads: 1/2/4/6
No. of Plug Pressing Heads: 1/2/4

Key Features

Dual Operation: Capable of both screw capping and bung pressing in one continuous process.
Torque-Controlled Capping Head: Ensures consistent, leak-proof capping without damage to bottles or caps.
Pneumatic / Servo Bung Pressing Head: Applies uniform pressure to seat plastic plugs or bungs securely in container necks.
Automatic Cap & Bung Feeding System: Vibratory or elevator-based feeding systems ensure continuous operation without manual intervention.
No Bottle – No Cap – No Bung – No Operation: Sensor-based safety interlock to prevent wastage or misalignment.
Sturdy & Hygienic Design: SS304/SS316L construction, easy to clean, and meets GMP guidelines.

SALIENT FEATURES

SS 304 body structure and MS base plate with SS cladding or hard chrome plating of all exposed parts to ensure long life and resistance against corrosion.
Servo-driven capping system.
Elegantly designed and constructed to meet the customer’s requirements.
SS frame structure with acrylic doors. (Optional)
SS-304 slat conveyor with VFD for speed control.
Especially used for capping plastic plug caps along with outer screw caps.
PLC with HMI touch screen for all operational controls.
Vibrating bowl / cap elevator & cap chute provided along with the machine for plug as well as outer screw caps. (Optional)

Working Principle

Bottle Infeed: Bottles are transferred via conveyor to the operating station using a star wheel or indexing system.
Cap / Bung Feeding: Caps and bungs are automatically oriented and fed via separate feeding systems (bowl or elevator).
Screw Capping Operation: The servo or clutch-based capping head picks the cap and tightens it onto the bottle with precise torque control.
Bung Pressing Operation: For containers requiring plugs or bungs, a pneumatic or servo press pushes the bung securely into place.
Outfeed: The sealed bottles are smoothly transferred to the next station, such as labeling or packing.

Applications

Pharmaceuticals: Syrup bottles, oral liquid containers with plugs + screw caps
Agrochemicals: HDPE containers with measuring bungs
Lubricants: Oil bottles with tamper-evident screw caps and bungs
Food Industry: Bottles of sauces, syrups, or vinegar with inner plugs
Cosmetics & Personal Care: Bottles with flip-top caps and stopper plugs
