An Expanded Range of Screwdriving Solutions
CDA’s VST, an all-stainless steel module for the automatic distribution and capping of headed caps, had an impressive performance. With a speed of up to 1800 caps per hour, this machine dispenses caps onto bottles after placing them in bulk in the elevator hopper. Ideal for the food and distillery industries, the VST stands out for its versatility, ease of operation, and adjustment, especially for capping force. It can be integrated with CDA’s linear fillers and automatic adhesive labelers.
A Significant Addition to the Filling Machine Family
The recently launched C-Pills by CDA is a semi-automatic capsule and coated tablet counter designed for the pharmaceutical, food, and animal sectors. Constructed with a durable design in polished mirror stainless steel, glass, and food-grade plastic (POM c), it ensures precise counting with a vibrating hopper, a glass rotating table, and a counting chute with laser curtain. With a counting capacity of 1000 capsules/tablets per minute, it offers maximum productivity and 99.99% accuracy. Easy to use with a touchscreen, it integrates seamlessly with screwdrivers and labelers for comprehensive product packaging.
A tip of the hat to our references !
CDA USA’s website was lacking something very important, its customers, it is to say our references in terms of partnership. We are actually in the process of building a display of quite a couple of them with their agreement of course.
We want more transparency on what we are capable of, whether it is for bigger productions or smaller ones. Perhaps, it will give a better idea to you reading this, of what you need from CDA in your production line as well. You can expect an increase in the number of references on display for the New Year. In the meantime, we invite you to go to the page to see the ones already on display.
CDA, with its machines combining versatility, precision, and reliability, has gained the trust of a diverse clientele, from small producers to major corporations. Our expertise in filling, capping, and labeling machines is the result of supporting numerous projects, and we will keep on doing that.
