Spindle Cappers, as well as specialty cappers such as snap cappers, come standard with a cap elevator that moves caps to the cap chute, which, in turn, presents caps to the container for tightening.

A vibratory bowl can be used on a capper as an alternative to a cap elevator.  The vibratory bowl uses an electromagnetic device to create a vibration that moves caps up a helical track to the cap chute.  Caps that are not correctly oriented for presentation to the chute and capping machine are knocked from the track and return to the bowl to once again climb up the track, repeating the process until correctly oriented and ready for the capper.

Vibratory bowls offer additional speed to the presentation of caps to the capping machine, and may work well when cap shape or size is difficult for a cap elevator.

For high-speed capping applications, the spindle capper and specialty cappers can be manufactured with a centrifugal bowl as well.
