SureKap Capping Machines

If you’re exploring automated packaging solutions in Canada, don’t overlook your capping machine. It may be one of the last steps in your packaging line—but if it fails, the whole process suffers.

Whether you’re packaging food, beverages, pharmaceuticals, or personal care products, your bottle capping equipment needs to deliver consistent torque, reliable performance, and minimal downtime.

Let’s look at what makes a great capping system, what to consider before buying, and the most common types available for Canadian manufacturers.

What Makes a Good Bottle Capper?

Not all automatic capping machines are built the same. A high-quality system should check these boxes:

    • Reliable torque and sealing – Prevent leaks and ensure product integrity

    • Easy changeovers – Maximize uptime, especially in short runs

    • Robust construction – Industrial-grade for long-term use

    • User-friendly design – Quick maintenance, intuitive controls

    • Versatility – Handle various cap sizes and bottle types

If you’re scaling your production or looking to automate a manual process, investing in the right capping solution now saves time, labour, and headaches later.

Key Considerations Before You Buy a Capping Machine

Before choosing your equipment, ask:

  • What cap type are you using? (e.g., screw caps, snap caps, tamper-evident caps)

  • What’s your production speed now—and in 2 years?

  • Do you have enough floor space for inline or rotary models?

 

  • Will your capper need to integrate with existing filling and labeling equipment?

Canadian manufacturers often have unique space, labour, and compliance considerations, so choosing the right packaging automation partner is key.

Types of Capping Machines

  • Spindle Cappers – Great for high-speed screw cap applications

  • Chuck Cappers – Best for precise torque control and secure seals

  • Snap Cappers – Designed for press-on caps, like those on beverage bottles

  • Retorquers – For re-sealing after induction sealing

  • Cap Sorters & Feeders – Automate your cap delivery to the machine
