ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is disclosed for filling and capping a quantity of stackable containers with a fluid from a fluid reservoir. The apparatus comprises a rotary table having a plurality of apertures disposed therein for receiving the containers. Containers from a container magazine are transferred individually and placed within the apertures in the rotary table. A filling head is disposed at a second position for filling the container with the fluid pumped from the fluid reservoir. A lid magazine is disposed at a third position with a rotatable arm means for transferring lids from the lid magazine to the filled container. A lid sensor is included for sensing the presence of a lid on the rotatable arm during rotation thereof. A heat sealer located at a fourth position heat seals the lid to the container. A discharge station is located at a fifth position for discharging the capped containers from the rotary table.
