YOUR QUESTIONS, ANSWERED

Engineered for continuous motion.

Answers for engineers, operators, and regulatory teams — fast, accurate, and fully compliant

What speeds can the RCX Rotary Capper achieve?

The RCX Rotary Capper is available in multiple configurations to meet different production speeds. The RC3, with 3 capping heads, can run at speeds up to 75 BPM, while the RC8, with 8 capping heads, can reach speeds up to 200 BPM.

Actual production speeds depend on the container, cap, product, and specific application. To determine the expected speed for your application, please contact our Engineering team.

What types of caps can the RCX Rotary Capper handle?

The RCX Rotary Capper can be configured to apply a variety of cap styles, including screw caps, CRC (child-resistant) caps, and press-on caps. Cap handling and capping components are configured for the specific container and closure.

If you have a different or specialized cap type, please contact us to discuss your application and determine the appropriate capping solution.

Can I get CAD files?

Yes. STEP and IGES files can be provided to assist with line integration and layout planning

What’s the typical lead time?

Lead times vary depending on the RCX configuration and application requirements. Contact us for current lead times for your project.

Does the RCX Rotary Capper provide torque feedback?

Yes. The RCX Rotary Capper provides real-time application torque feedback from the servo motor, with torque information displayed directly on the operator screen. This allows operators to monitor capping performance during production and helps maintain consistent cap application.

Application torque feedback can support process monitoring, quality control, and troubleshooting. Contact our Engineering team to discuss the torque requirements for your specific cap and container application.

Can the RCX Rotary Capper be integrated into an existing packaging line?

Yes. The RCX Rotary Capper can be integrated into new or existing packaging lines and configured to work with your existing conveyors and upstream or downstream equipment. Our Engineering team can review your line layout, production requirements, and existing equipment to determine the best integration approach.

What warranty is included with the RCX Rotary Capper?

The RCX Rotary Capper includes a 12-month warranty on Aesus-manufactured parts, providing coverage against defects in materials and workmanship. For complete warranty terms and coverage details, please contact Aesus.
