Production Line Integration Capabilities

Designed for seamless integration in a used bottling line, the capping machine Arol interfaces cleanly with upstream fillers and downstream conveyors in beverage production and broader industrial packaging environments.

Line connectivity

• Rotary infeed/outfeed handling suitable for synchronization with filler/starwheel systems.
• Cap feeder included to maintain closure flow for 38 mm and 42 mm caps.
• Typical line start/stop and fault signaling available for system handshakes (to be configured to site standard).

Machine Condition & Maintenance History

• Unit type: Second hand, year 2013.
• General condition consistent with industrial use; inspection and functional tests recommended prior to commissioning.
• Preventive maintenance, wear parts, and format parts should be reviewed during technical audit.

Operational Performance & Versatility

• High-throughput capping up to 24,000 bph supports demanding beverage production targets.
• Handles two common formats (0.5 L and 1 L) with cap sizes 38/42 mm—typical for waters, soft drinks, and other liquid packaging in industrial environments.
• Torque adjustability helps protect threads and maintain seal integrity across different closure suppliers.
