OPERATIONSMANUAL
Automatic Spindle Capping Machine
(NP-LC)
It is flexible, durable and works with most containers and caps including flat caps, sport caps,
metal lids and many others. It’s built on a heavy duty, tig welded, stainless steel frame with
anodized aluminum plate construction to provide durability in almost any packaging
environment. The modular design lets you start with just a cap tightener and easily add
capabilities when you need them.

1. Installation and commissioning
1、 Rack feet adjustment
It is primarily used to make adjustment on the whole height and the
harmony of product line.
2、 Mainframe adjustment from top to bottom
The distance between mainframe and the conveyor of working line is
adjusted by screw that can be up and down. There are manual or
automatic for you to choose. There is a scale ruler located at the
adjustment place. You can easily shake it according to your hand, when
choosing manual to control. You can press the control switch。Further
more, with the driving from electrical, there are limiting switch to control
the mainframe up and down.

3、The tighten adjustment of synchronous belt
For fitting different bottles Drive, bottles, the distance between two
synchrony belts can be adjusted. See map 3, the kinetic nut will move
2mm when the handle rounds circuit. Another regulation bottle handle
and shoulder belt on the lower deck can handle each round of
adjustment covered with bottles of rubbing shoulders of the relative
distance (according to bottle and bottles of the relative distance
shoulder) and folder on the lower deck of the conveyor belt from the
bottle (according to the bottle Height) to meet the necessary
requirements. Conveyor speed adjustment is regulated by the level of
the frequency converter. After stepless speed regulation completed, the
inverter will displayed in the user interface.

4、The tighten adjustment of capping wheel
Six rubbing cap are separately driven by six motor, using converter stepless
speed regulation, with numerical display. Rubbing cap clamping adjustment
method (Figure 4): rotating handles, driven by adjusting the screw adjustment
nut Centre rubbing round lead in turn to pitch adjustment for changes in the
counter to display values.

5、The adjustment of cover nozzle guiding system. ( Map5)
Nozzle-oriented device can meet different heights bottle-oriented rapid
adjustment. When replacing the bottle, restructuring handle, guided along the
straight-bearing sliding from top to bottom, thus boosting pressure of the
movement, to achieve a high degree of regulation.

2. Safety and maintenance
1、Mechanical parts
1) In general the normal using life is 6 months, such as (6) below,
adjusting the handle when machine is on operation, through the take-up sticks
to the plate to belt tension into a straight line. Release the locking bolt when
replace the belt, the board removed the tension, break the belt away from
rubbing wheel when the belt is lax enough, then the belt can be take out from
under board.

2） Roll covered round of regular inspections, replacement of worn.
Replacement of the steps are as follows ( Map 7):
First of all parts will cover bolts removed, so polyurethane component, such
as rubbing round will be covered from rubbing on the axle, and then
demolished Gland on the four fixed bolts, will be replaced by rubbing round.

3） lubrication site map( Map 8)
The figure below shows the need for lubrication of this site. Grease a Mobil
MP2 #, lubrication cycle is generally three to six months.

4） security segregation unit
There are colorless and transparent shield at around, it will insulate the
motor, capping wheel that human’s hand can touch very easily, it is also
very convenient to do installation and teardown.
2、Electrical parts
1）Emergency stop button
All the motor will be stopped working when move the emergent button that
facing emergent instance.
2）Up, down button
When the screw used motor movements automatically increase or
decrease, to move up, down button is OK.
3） The machines shell must have a good grounding before used
3. Common malfunction and elimination
1、Mechanical part
No. Fault Possible reasons
1) Is the conveyer belt center and rubbing wheel
centre are not on the same line?
2) Are the conveyor belt speed and the speed with
Appear bottle belt clip bottle synchronized?
1
acclivitous 3) The nipping bottle conveyor belt is too loose,
capping torque is too large.
4）The distance between two conveyer belts is too
small.
2 Cover is not tight 1) The bottle is running too fast when capping.
when capping 2) Capping torque is too small or capping speed is too
slow
1) The interface is very small between capping wheel
and cover.
3 cover askew when 2) Capping wheel, synchronous belt is broken.
capping 3) The screw thread on cover or bottle mouth is
metamorphose or broken.

Loose the nut on the two side , then you
can adjust the black handle to adjust

When you working the 4L bottle include the handle , you must use below sensor and cylinder ..
you can image that the handle of 4L bottle is more higher than bottle mouth . When the bottle
through the cap head, the bottle mouth will take out one cap, but the handle also take one cap
( happen problem ). There is a cylinder on the top of cap head (find below photo). The function is
block the second cap ( bottle handle cannot take second cap out)
