Zalkin Rotary Insert + Close systems are ideal for a range of dispensing containers at speeds up to 300 cpm (18,000 cph) including:

  • Trigger spray bottles

Rotary Insert + Close cappers include several different combinations of capabilities. These capabilities include:

  • Insert + Screw-on
  • Insert + Roll-on

Every Rotary Insert + Close capping system completes a multi-step closure application process for pump and spray containers that will include some combination of the following:

  • A pump assembly with dip tube is inserted into the container,
  • The pump is crimped onto or screwed onto the container,
  • A decorative cap or collar is applied to the container
  • An overcap is applied to the container

The combinations of required operations are determined by Zalkin application engineers in cooperation with customers as well as pump and cap suppliers. The caps, collars or closures applied can be screw-on, roll-on or snap-on depending on customer or product requirements. This capability makes Zalkin the system of choice for challenging spray or pump bottle applications.
