Starcap

Bench capper with pneumatic operation. Solid and robust, compact and easy to use, it allows you to carry out a perfect corking on various types of caps.

The complete version includes 3 kits for closing satin corks, synthetic agglomerate, crown caps and “Guala dop” type pressure caps or corks with wooden head.

The cork stoppers are manually inserted into the cone; by activating the two start buttons, the cork is introduced into the bottle with a compression principle which guarantees its perfect integrity.

Furthermore, thanks to the particular head used by this system, once the capping has been completed, the surface of the cap is perfectly homogeneous, without depressions or removal of material from the cap.

Pneumatically operated bench-top capping machine. Solid, robust, compact, and easy to use, it enables perfect capping on various caps.

Faq

What is the maximum diameter of the cork that the STARCAP can apply
The maximum diameter of the cork stopper is 24 mm.
Does the Starcap capper close T-shaped corks like champagne corks?
No, it is not possible to use Starcap to close mushroom corks. It can only be used for satin cork stoppers or synthetic agglomerate stoppers.
Can the Starcap capper also close magnum bottles?
No, the structure and small size do not allow the use of Starcap with magnum type bottles.
Can a nitrogen injection device be inserted on the Starcap capper? Can you carry out vacuum capping?
No, the Starcap capper is designed for semi-manufactured use, for small companies and not for industrial production. In view of its small size and very simple mechanical controls, neither nitrogen injection nor vacuum before capping can be integrated.
Is the compressor included in the supply of the Starcap capper?
The Starcap capper is completely pneumatic in operation, this means that the capper works by means of compressed air or a simple hobby compressor. The compressor is not included in the delivery of the machine.
Is there a cap feeding hopper?
No, the Starcap capper is a bench machine. there is no hopper for feeding the caps, the caps must be inserted individually by the operator.
What type of compressor should I use for the Starcap capper?
For the Starcap pneumatic capper by Tenco, it is recommended to use a compressor that can provide compressed air with the following specifications: Pressure: The compressor should be able to supply compressed air at a pressure between 4 and 6 bar (58 – 87 psi). Flow Rate: The air flow rate should be sufficient to meet the needs of the capper during continuous operation. This usually translates to a flow rate of at least 100-200 liters per minute (3.5 – 7 CFM – Cubic Feet per Minute), but it may vary based on the frequency and duration of the capper’s use. Type of Compressor: A piston compressor, either lubricated or oil-free, is generally suitable for this application. Oil-free compressors are preferable in environments where air quality must be kept free of contaminants. Tank Size: A tank of adequate size (for example, 50 liters or more) will help ensure a consistent supply of air without pressure fluctuations that could affect the capper’s operation. Example of a Suitable Compressor An example of a compressor that meets these specifications might be a lubricated piston compressor with the following features: Operating Pressure: 8 bar Flow Rate: 250 liters/min Tank Size: 50 liters Motor: 2 HP (Horsepower)
