Lubrication for Oral Liquid Capping Machines Ensures Efficient Production

Feb. 11, 2025

The oral liquid capping machine is a specialized mechanical device used for sealing the caps of oral liquid bottles. It is characterized by high efficiency, stability, and easy operation. Typically designed in a tabletop format with a stainless steel body, the machine ensures safe and convenient operation. During operation, the bottle being capped remains stationary while the capping head rotates to complete the sealing action. This design makes the capping process stable and reliable, ensuring a high product yield. It is widely used for automatic filling and capping of oral liquids, drops, nasal sprays, oral sprays, and other formulations.

Working Principle: The working principle of the oral liquid capping machine is relatively simple. The filled oral liquid bottles are placed on a tray, and the position of the capping head and bottle cap is adjusted to align them. Then, the tray is raised via a handle until the bottle cap is firmly pressed by the capping head. The rotating capping head then begins its operation, using rotation and friction to securely press the cap onto the bottle, completing the sealing process.

Workflow:

1. Oral liquid bottles enter the production line via a bottle-feeding mechanism and are initially positioned and screened.

2. The bottles are sent to the filling station for filling.

3. Once filled, the bottles continue to the capping station.

4. The capping mechanism activates and presses the bottle cap onto the bottle, sealing it.

5. Bottles with completed caps are sent out via the bottle-out mechanism for further packaging or inspection.

During the filling and capping processes, the system is powered by either electric or pneumatic mechanisms to drive the filling valves, ensuring smooth operation. The capping process controls the rotation and downward pressure of the capping head, tightly securing the cap. It is essential to ensure proper pressure during the capping process—not too tight to avoid deforming the cap, and to prevent friction or contamination from oil on the rotating components.

Baoxing's Lubrication Solutions: Baoxing offers both oil-based and dry lubrication sprays that meet food-grade medical standards, with NSF food-grade certification and biocompatibility certification. For example, a certain oral liquid production company uses Baoxing’s food-grade medical dry lubrication spray for their capping machine. This lubricant has high lubrication properties, effectively reducing friction, and dries quickly without leaving residues, ensuring the hygiene and safety of the equipment. The oil-based lubrication spray, used on the cylinder parts, provides long-lasting lubrication, enhances lubrication properties, reduces friction, and improves wear resistance, making it convenient for spraying lubrication.

About Baoxing: Founded in 1998 in Taiwan, Baoxing Lubricating Oil specializes in providing custom lubrication solutions for international brands, OEM oil grease solutions, and equipment maintenance lubrication for various industries in China. The company offers full-service solutions from on-site technical guidance to product development, helping brands with lubrication management. In 2005, Baoxing established its headquarters in Dongguan, China, officially becoming Dongguan Baoxing Lubricating Oil Co., Ltd. With 20 years of experience, Baoxing registered its brand in China in 2007 and has been providing NSF food-grade certified products for the food, pharmaceutical, and related industries for 17 years.
