What is a puck and what does it do?

A puck is an injection molded or machined carrier which adds stability to your product during labeling, capping, filling, assembling, and date coding.

Choose a puck shape and size. Use this footprint to reduce your changeover time and cost. Pucks also make your production line more flexible.
- No need to change guide rail spacing.
- Fill heights and fill neck spacing is now consistent.
- Filling, capping, labeling, date coding and handling unstable packages is not an issue.
Timing screws and star wheels for fillers, cappers and labelers can be standardized, reducing cost and complexity of capital equipment.
Pucks act as wear points on your productions line. Replacing pucks is faster and more economical.
Orientation features allow you to position the puck and product in the direction you want it to run on your line.
Laser engraving of the puck number or product description on the outside of the puck makes identification easy.

Pucks stabilize your product, which means increased line speeds, less down time, reduced waste and less line clean up.
Record lot code or product ID with RFID chips inserted in your puck.
Pucks keep packages and labels safe from scuffing caused by the production line.
Align off-center or angled neck packages.
Puck weight tolerances available.
