Pail Closing Systems are available for virtually any size and style lid - either as stand alone units or otherwise integrated with the filling equipment. The inclined magazine design with cam mechanisms provide ample storage and denests the leading lid and dispenses it into a lid chute. Lids with pour spouts or bung fitments are also rotated to provide consistent orientation. The filled pail then engages the lid's flange and pulls it free from the lid chute mechanism. The lids are held captive during the engagement process and immediately enter the overhead (direct motor driven) belt/roller compression section. Lids are firmly pressed onto the pails while in transit.

For multi station inline filler applications (where the pails are discharged in multiples) the lid chute is extended to provide a continuous supply of lids as appropriate. Also, the distance between the lid placement mechanism and the overhead compression section may be lengthened to permit stopping the conveyor for missing or misaligned lids before entering the compression zone. The options are numerous, and it is always our policy to request lid and pail samples to assure equipment compatibility.
