Cap Lining & Closing Machines

Cap Slitting & Folding Machine

Yellow caps feed from the bowl into the turret and drop out finished.

This machine slits and folds the tamper-evident band on moulded plastic caps.

Caps run from a vibratory bowl on top of the machine down a track into a turret, where spring-loaded heads work each cap in turn before it drops into the bin. We supply a slitting machine, a folding machine, or one machine that does both, with a cap elevator that lifts caps from a floor hopper into the bowl. A typical machine runs about 15,000–25,000 caps per hour.

Send us a sample cap, or a drawing or photos of it, and we'll tell you whether it fits, and how fast.

Frequently Asked Questions

A sample cap (or a drawing or photos of it), whether you need slitting, folding or both, and your target output. With those, we'll send an exact quote within 24–48 hours.
It depends on your cap, whether you need slitting, folding or both, and the output you need. Send us your drawing or photos and your target output, and we'll send an exact quote within 24–48 hours.
A typical machine runs about 15,000–25,000 caps per hour, depending on the cap size. Your machine is matched to your cap and the output you need.
Slitting (also called cap cutting) cuts the band at the bottom of the cap, leaving it joined to the cap only by small bridges, which break when the bottle is first opened. Folding turns the band's flaps inward so they catch under the ring on the bottle neck. Some caps need one step, some need both. Send us your cap, and we'll tell you which.
A cap lining and folding machine also puts a liner into each cap. This machine only slits and folds the band, so it suits caps that need no liner. If your cap needs a liner as well, see our Cap Lining & Folding Machine.
Each cap slitting and folding machine is made to your caps by a long-term partner factory. We choose the machine for your cap, install and commission it on site, train your team and supply the spare and wear parts, so after-sales goes through one contact.
