Karmelle Ltd to unveil versatile new

British liquid packaging specialists Karmelle Ltd are set to unveil a new indexing capping machine at 2019’s PPMA Total Show, which will take place on October 1st, 2nd and 3rd at the NEC, Birmingham. The new capper has bridged a gap in Karmelle Ltd’s turnkey product range, which comprises modular, British-made filling, capping and labelling machines, designed to work independently or as part of a complete line. Christened the ‘Antelope’, it can achieve speeds of up to 40 bpm (depending on container-type), and will enable customers to increase production without investing in rotary capping equipment. Indeed, the Antelope combines speed and efficiency with the versatility of an inline machine, and is capable of handling containers ranging from 100ml to 25L. Suitable for almost any closure, it also offers excellent repeatability. Visitors can see the Antelope Capper on Karmelle’s stand, E32, where it will be running alongside a range of liquid filling and labelling equipment. Directors Peter Krawczuk and Brian Dickinson and Labelling Technician Grahame Rawlinson will be on hand to provide machinery demonstrations and expert advice. Brian commented: “The Antelope Capper’s versatility makes it ideal for any number of products; while it is capable of capping small bottles at high speeds, it can be easily adjusted to handle much larger containers. It was developed as part of an ATEX project for a leading manufacturer of automotive products. This client needed to fill and cap 2.5L and 5L containers, as well as 20L and 25L bottles – for which a rotary capper would have been unsuitable. The Antelope has enabled our client to achieve its required production speeds for smaller volumes, while accommodating these larger containers.” To learn more about this ATEX project, and see Karmelle’s British-made liquid filling machines, cappers and automatic labellers in action, visit them on Stand E32, call +(0)1484 533356, or go to www.karmelle.com.
