FAQ

FURI develops equipment for 2-piece, 3-piece and multi-component closures, including flip-top, threaded, push-pull, snap-fit, spout and other special cap designs. The machine configuration depends on the closure geometry, component relationship and assembly sequence.

Yes. For closures outside our standard machine range, our 18-person engineering team can develop custom feeding, positioning, assembly, tooling and inspection systems around your actual cap samples, drawings and production requirements.

In many applications, yes. Replaceable tooling, tracks, locating nests and format parts can be designed for multiple cap sizes or variants. Whether one machine is suitable depends on the differences in closure geometry, component structure and assembly sequence.

Cap samples or drawings, component structure, assembly sequence, target output and inspection requirements are usually enough for an initial review. For line-integration projects, conveyor height, available floor space and upstream or downstream equipment information are also useful.

Yes. Tracks, indexing discs, positioning fixtures, locating nests, pressing tools and other change parts can be engineered around your actual caps, liners and inserts.

Depending on the machine type, closure structure, assembly process and configuration, FURI equipment typically covers approximately 3,600–30,000 PCS/H. Final output is confirmed after evaluating the cap design, number of process stations, feeding method and inspection requirements.

Yes. FURI machines can be configured to work with conveyors, injection molding equipment and downstream packaging systems through PLC controls and I/O interlocks. Infeed direction, discharge direction and working height can also be adapted to the existing line layout.

Yes. Automatic cap feeding, orientation, assembly, liner insertion and CCD vision inspection can be integrated into one production system. Filling, sealing, closing or labeling stations can also be added when required by the process.

Depending on the application, CCD vision inspection can be used to detect missing, reversed or incorrectly assembled components before discharge. Inspection criteria are defined around the actual closure and approved defect samples.

In suitable cap assembly applications, automated feeding, assembly and inspection can reduce manual labor by up to 80%. The actual reduction depends on the current process, number of operators and the operations included in the automated system.

Critical machined components are inspected before assembly, followed by machine commissioning and a 72-hour no-load run. Customer-supplied caps, liners and inserts are then used for loaded production trials to verify feeding, assembly, inspection and sustained output.

Yes. Actual customer caps, liners and inserts are used during machine validation to check feeding stability, assembly results, inspection performance and agreed production output before shipment.

Yes. The FAT can cover machine functions, production trials, emergency stops, safety light curtains, electrical protection and other agreed acceptance items before the equipment leaves the factory.

Most custom projects require approximately 30–40 days, depending on the machine structure, tooling requirements, number of process stations and level of line integration.

FURI provides technical support, critical spare parts and preventive maintenance guidance for its bottle cap assembly machinery. Support can cover troubleshooting, replacement parts and maintenance planning throughout the equipment lifecycle.
