Steelhead Automatic De-Capper System

We feature the Steelhead high-speed auto de-capper for line speeds from 600 to 3,000 bph, in one (1), two (2), and three (3) head configurations. These bottling equipment systems, designed to integrate seamlessly with your water bottling machine or any bottling machine for sale, can be placed directly over our conveyor or yours and easily adjusted to work on your 3 or 5-gallon bottles. Other features include PLC control, auto pass-through for non-capped bottles, and auto-reject for missed bottles. The Steelhead semi-auto de-capper (SA600) is the perfect solution for bottlers with lines up to 450 bottles per hour with manual bottle loading of the conveyor. The SA600 de-capper will easily and quickly remove the cap from any bottle by simply inserting the bottle and depressing the foot pedal.

WHY BOTTLERS TRUST STEELHEAD

Built to meet FSMA requirements and ANSI 169 sanitation standards. Manufactured in San Antonio, Texas.

“Steelhead was by far the most responsive vendor to our initial inquiry when we started the process of getting our bottling plant up and running. They listened to my needs and came up with a proposal to fit my operation and budget. David came in for a personal presentation and once the sale was completed, the support continued throughout the entire process.”
