The Pneumatic Part Feeders (PPF) or Pneumatic Cap Blowers from Dillin Automation are a trusted choice for automating closure operations and small part handling. Designed to streamline production lines, they ensure consistent, controlled part delivery while minimizing manual labor. Whether handling caps, liners, fitments, corks, or capsules, these systems excel in cap conveying, cap handling, and bottle cap conveying applications. With decades of innovation since 1979, Dillin Automation offers reliable cap feeding systems that boost productivity, ensure product quality, and reduce downtime.
PPFs use a powerful motor-driven air blower to transport parts efficiently through tubing, with delivery capabilities reaching hundreds of feet. Their adjustable rate control ensures accurate part handling, minimizing waste and maximizing throughput. Additionally, the stainless steel construction offers durability, hygiene compliance, and easy cleaning—making PPFs particularly beneficial for industries such as food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and personal care.
Eliminates unnecessary manual handling, increasing production efficiency.
Space-saving construction with reliable operational stability.
Suitable for various small parts, including caps, fitments, and liners.
Provides precise flow management to meet specific production demands.
Transports parts through tubing to distant locations with no loss in control.
Ensures longevity and meets hygiene regulations.
Routine filter changes minimize downtime and keep operations running smoothly.
Simplified controls offer ease of use and reliability.
Special tubing design prevents static build-up, ensuring safe and effective part delivery.
Transparent tubing allows easy visual inspection of parts in motion.
Choose from various models with capacities including 3.8 cuft, 15.5 cuft, 24.3 cuft, 30 cuft, or 60 cuft to match your production needs.
PPFs excel in cap feeding applications by delivering caps to cappers, sorters, or prefeeder belts with precision. This makes them ideal for closure automation in industries that require high-speed, reliable cap and crown conveying systems. From beverage bottling lines to pharmaceutical packaging, their robust performance ensures minimal downtime and maximum productivity.
Ideal for cap conveying in bottling plants, handling plastic or metal caps efficiently.
Maintain hygiene standards with pneumatic cap blowers that minimize contamination risks.
Ensures smooth operation on packaging lines, handling delicate closures for lotions and shampoos.
Durable and adaptable for transport systems for caps in complex manufacturing environments.
Compared to vibratory or servo-driven systems, PPFs provide a more flexible, cost-effective solution. Their pneumatic conveying system ensures gentle part handling, preventing damage to fragile items. Additionally, real-time monitoring through clear tubing provides operators with visibility and immediate control.
PPFs are also advantageous in settings where static electricity poses a risk. The specialized tubing construction minimizes static build-up, reducing product contamination and safety hazards.
