The CC1440 Machine is one of the original Cap Coder developments to assist the 'start up' companies, who needed to reduce the risks of RSR, but with a minimal cost implication. It was originally designed as an all pneumatic machine, (particularly useful in Hazardous Environments), for small shaped containers up to 5 Litre jerry-can type containers. It is supplied with one of Cap Coders CC720 MK V Torque heads, using rubber-lined change part gripping jaws, to give accurate and consistent torque values.

Over the years, due to Cap Coders ability to respond to customers' needs and requirements, it is now available in several different versions, namely;

Manual Infeed - PLC controlled and electro-pneumatically operated or pneumatically controlled and operated. For shaped containers up to 5 Litre containers, (not suitable for round containers).

Powered Infeed - PLC controlled and electro-pneumatically operated, or pneumatically controlled and operated. Suitable for small round and shaped containers, up to 1 Litre capacity containers. The machine can be supplied with an adaptor piece to convert the machine to Manual Infeed, as above to allow 5 Litre containers to be handled. Supplied with a single 'Start' button as standard, with options for a two handed 'Start' version.

Trigger spray Applications - either of the above two machines can be supplied with an 'Orientation' style Torque head, to screw on trigger spray caps and turn the trigger section of the cap to the correct orientation of the container.

Press on Caps - For use to press home pre-placed caps. A simple press head unit replaces the torque head.

Un-tightening Application - With this variation, not only can caps be tightened, but unscrewed as well. Using a reversible motor, a simple switch will change the method of operation. Alternatively, it can be part of the operating sequence; this is particularly useful for laboratories where the filling media requires analysis. The machine unscrews the cap to allow the operator to remove the test sample, before putting it back into the machine for screwing the cap back on.

Different products are easily catered for using simple change parts, allowing changeovers to be carried out in less than 10 minutes.

The machine can be supplied suitable for use in Hazardous Environments, complete with the necessary documentation for use in a Zone 2, Atex Environment and even Zone 1, Atex Environment using an all pneumatic control and operating system.

There are also options for Validation Documentation, including HATS & SATS, DSERA, GMP and GAMP.
