ABSTRACT:
The disclosure provides an automatic capping apparatus for placing a cap on the opening of a container and crimping the cap onto the opening to seal the container. The capping apparatus includes three operating stations through which the containers are moved on a conveyor -- an aligning station to position the container on the conveyor, a cap pickup and placing station to deposit a cap on the opening of the container, and a crimping station for crimping the cap onto the opening. Furthermore, sensing means are provided at the pickup and placement station and the crimping station to assure that the operation at those stations is successfully accomplished.
