Twin Cap Sorter is the name of the year’s newest proposal from WeightPack, to be presented at the Interpack fair in Düsseldorf, Germany. To meet the exploding demand for household cleaning products the Italian company has developed an efficient and practical solution for doubling the speed of its machinery: this trigger cap feeder can in fact process more than 330 spray closures per minute. That’s nearly twice as fast as the company’s standard machinery, on a small footprint and at sustained speed.

The machine features a structure true to its name: two "twin" sorters, working simultaneously and in an independent way to distribute the triggers and unscramble them, make them marching toward the capping machinery. This allows great versatility and represents a huge advantage in terms of production. Redundancy means that should one sorter fail temporarily, the twin component will continue serving up trigger sprayers. Nonstop production, because performance comes first!

Not only that, but the twin version also allows the operator to have greater and easier accessibility, thanks to the strategically placed doors facing outward and thanks to the internal space that is created between the two sorters.

However, cap sorters are not the only focus for WeightPack. The Italian company is specialized in the manufacturing of packaging machinery for liquid and dense products. In particular, the heart of WeightPack technology is the high precision net weight filling, working on the principle of real time net weight product dosing in the bottle. Thanks to the continuous check of all empty container weights, the electronic auto-correction of the filling weight for every fill station and the continuous resetting of the weighing system on each rotation of the filler, an accurate and perfectly constant over time fill is guaranteed.

For over 45 years WeightPack’s team has invested in perfecting the most accurate means possible for measuring out and delivering top quality liquids and powders into containers.  Measuring the precise quantity of product put inside the primary package—at the destination—means what you weigh is what you get. WeightPack machinery can also be installed for the treatment of caps, lids, pump dispensers and trigger sprayers as well as containers such as HDPE, PET, glass, cans. The packaging solutions offered by WeightPack are suitable for most of all the product viscosities.

The patented Weightpack trigger inserting and closing unit consists of two turrets in synchronous motion performing the principal actions required for correct closure application: the first turret is dedicated to the selection of the oriented trigger closure, to the stretch/pulling and centering of the dip tube over the bottle mouth and to the partial insertion of the dip tube into the bottle. The second turret is instead dedicated to the complete dip tube insertion into the bottle and the screw cap gripping and closing.

What really matters for WeightPack is to meet its customers’ needs at best. Tube type or tank style filler? Foam retarding or drip-proof nozzles? No need to worry, as WeightPack will find the perfect solution for your product.

For over 20 years, WeightPack has, in addition to their Italian home, operated offices in the US and in China, to serve customers with a well-stocked spare parts store, dedicated service technicians, reliability maintenance programs, and in-house fabrication for container and cap change parts, as well as emergency parts manufacturing.
