Systems and methods for capping
Method and systems for capping are described. In one embodiment, an order processing device, a cap device, a plurality of feeders and a capping implement are provided. The order processing device processes orders with containers. The cap device is adapted to cap the container and is communicatively connected to the order processing device. The cap device is adapted to receive dispensation preferences from the order processing device. The cap device includes a plurality of feeders and a capping implement. Each feeder has a unique type of crown portion of a cap for capping. The capping implement is adapted to grasp the crown portion from the feeder. The cap device is adapted to select a feeder from which to grasp the crown portion based on the dispensation preferences. Additional methods and systems are disclosed.

SEGMENTED TELESCOPICALLY ADJUSTABLE CAP PASSAGE
A telescopic cap-supply that supplies caps for closing containers includes a cap passage having a length-adjustable section. Adjustment of a length of the length-adjustable section causes the length-adjustable section to transition between an extended state and a collapsed state. First, second, and third segments form the cap passage. Each of these segments is secured to an adjoining segment in such a manner that two adjoining segments are movable relative to each other.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ACCUMULATION
Method and systems for accumulation are described. In one embodiment, a dispensing station includes a receiving opening, a dispensing opening and a storage area. The dispensing station receives and dispenses a container. A transportable storage system includes multiple partitions disposed on a carrier portion to define multiple carriage sections. The carriage sections are electronically identifiable and selectively hold or eject the container. A bin apparatus for receiving the container includes a movable portion to selectively hold and release the container. A control unit for commanding the bin apparatus to dispense the container to a desired carriage section of the transportable storage system is provided. Additional methods and systems are disclosed.

ARRANGEMENT FOR DISINFECTING CAN LIDS FOR CLOSING CANS
An arrangement for disinfecting can lids and for closing cans includes a feed device which feeds a can closing unit. Receiving portions for individual can lids are arranged in the feed device. The feed device is situated in the feed region of the can closing unit. At least one sterilization device, for can lids received individually in the feed device, is arranged in a conveying region of the feed device.
DEVICE FOR SUPPLYING A CONTAINER CLOSURE, AND CLOSING DEVICE
A device for supplying a container closure to a closing device for closing a container with a container closure, includes a rotatable carrier wheel for transporting a container closure from a supply position, at which the container closure to be supplied is supplied from a closure supply, to a transfer position, at which the transported container closure is received by a closing device, wherein the carrier wheel is configured so as to be displaceable between an operating position corresponding to the transfer position, and a retracted position in which the carrier wheel is spaced from the transfer position. The device also includes a scraping unit configured to remove the container closure held by the closing device. The scraping unit is mounted upstream of the rotatable carrier wheel with respect to a movement direction of the closing device. A closing device including the device is also described.
