SSC-6
The Accutek Semi-Automatic Spindle Capper (SSC-6) is designed to place and tighten a wide variety of closures onto containers in a sanitary environment. Each tightening spindle is spring-loaded and driven by a torque-sensitive individual motor for increased disk-to-cap contact and reduced disk wear.
This unique design eliminates the need for transmissions, pulleys, and universal shafts. This reduces the size of the machine, lowers maintenance time, and expands the capper’s capability and adjustability. The SSC-6 can accommodate standard closure sizes ranging from 1 to 12 cm with no additional components.
The SSC ships standard with a centrifugal bowl closure orientation system for line speeds up to 120 CPM. The system can be upgraded with an optional closure elevator/orientator, increasing line speed and efficiency.
Single gripper belts are standard and have a tapered container adjustment to accommodate sloped containers up to 8.5” (21.59 cm) wide. Various optional gripper belt configurations are available for higher production rates, torque requirements, or difficult-to-handle containers.

What happens if my machine has an issue? What should I do?
If you have a problem with the SSC, there’s a troubleshooting section in the manual describing various potential problems and their solutions. If the provided solutions don’t work or the problem is outside the manual’s scope, call Accutek’s service department. We’ll do what we can to walk you through fixing the problem.How often should I perform maintenance on the machine?
We recommend performing daily, weekly, and quarterly maintenance. The machine must have its air regulator checked daily for moisture. Also, ensure that the cooling fan above the control panel is operating. Every week, clean all external surfaces with a mild detergent. Never wash the top of the machine with a water hose. Since the motors used to drive the spindle tensioning wheel aren’t sealed, this will cause them to short out. As for every quarter, remove the top guard for servicing. Blow out any accumulated dust before servicing your equipment. As with any type of rotating equipment, ensure proper isolation from the electrical and pneumatic supply.- Heavy-duty stainless steel frame
