Dip tube entry
The tube needs to enter the bottle correctly before the closure is tightened.
Pump and trigger bottles
Capper for pump and trigger bottles
Pump and trigger bottles usually need more handling detail than ordinary screw-cap packs. Dip tubes, tall closures and orientation can define the final route.
Orientation needs
Some finished packs need the trigger or pump facing a particular direction.
Bottle guides
Taller closures can make the bottle less stable during capping.
