Cap feeders

Sidel’s Aidlin Eco cap feeders combine energy savings, high speeds and ergonomics, and provide process reliability, "respect for the caps" and lower dust emissions.
By ,
Sidel cap feeders take aim at energy consumption by definitively abandoning the use of air, not only for cap propulsion but also for ejection of off-spec caps. Can be used at all production speeds even can process flat caps at more than 120,000 caps/hour. Features the Aidlin cap orientation principle: cleats linked together by an articulated chain carry the caps gently from a large storage hopper towards an adjustable speed bump, which inclines the cleats and causes poorly oriented caps to fall by simple gravity.
