Lid Placing & Closing Systems
AUTOMATIC LID PLACERS
& CLOSERS / CRIMPERS
Our Lid Placers can dispense up to 40 lids per minute.
These machines come in fixed or adjustable models. For lids that require orienting, the Lid Placer can be equipped to orient a spout in relation to the handle.
Closer options include automatic roller closers, crimpers, and screw-type.
SEMI-AUTOMATIC
OPTIONS
HEISLER also offers a line of semi-automatic options, designed to be compact in a modular and economical package for your specific needs if a fully automatic solution is not warranted.
These options include stand-alone closers, or stand-alone lid placers.
MANUAL
CLOSERS
Our manual lid presses come in models for both plastic and metal containers.
A lid is placed on the container, which has been manually positioned under the press plate or crimper. Two buttons are then pressed simultaneously and a pneumatic cylinder activates the press plate or the crimper to close the container. Releasing one or both of the buttons, shifts the flow, causing the cylinder to retract.
Available options are stainless steel, castors, conveyor, and the ability to close both plastic and metal lids on one machine.

Lid Placing & Closing systems offered by Heisler Industries
P100 Automatic
Lid Placer & Closer
In this model, stacks of lids are placed and fed along a low level in-feed conveyor to an elevator where they are automatically lifted to the separating mechanism and fed down a chute above the pail/product conveyor. Lids are placed on the pails as they pass under the chute and move to the closer where metal lids are crimped and plastic pails are compressed or screwed for secure closure.
The P100 can hold up to 7-8 full stacks of lids and continuously will replenish itself until more lids are needed, offering plenty of continuous operation before reloading is needed.
