Tamper-evident caps

Capper for tamper evident caps

Tamper-evident closures can require more careful setup than standard caps because band clearance, cap start and torque all affect the finished pack.

The cap must start and tighten without damaging or mis-seating the tamper-evident band.

Too little torque can leave a loose cap; too much can distort the closure or band.

The pack needs to stay stable while the closure is tightened to the correct point.

Shortlist route

Which route is most likely to fit?

Use these checks to decide whether the project is a semi-automatic, compact or automatic inline capping route.

Project signal	Likely route	Why it matters
Standard TE screw caps	Screw capping route	Best when closure start and torque can be controlled.
Higher output TE caps	Inline spindle capper	Useful for repeatable torque on stable bottles.
Mixed TE cap sizes	Sample-led format plan	Confirms adjustment and change-part requirements.

FAQ

Often yes, provided samples confirm thread engagement and band behaviour.

The band can catch, deform or affect torque if the setup is wrong.

Send multiple bottles and caps from the actual supplier batch if possible.
