Magnetic Bottle Capping Clutch

Techna's hysteresis style bottle capping clutch disengages very smoothly applying highly consistent torque onto the bottle caps. This smooth disengagement within a fully sealed unit increases the life of your machine. Techna's standard design, featuring customised upper and lower flanges, can replace every OEM's headset currently available. Unlike most other disc-style hysteresis clutches, our Techna bottle capping clutch has high resolution and a linear adjustment mechanism with a full 360 degree range.

Features
