| Output target | Confirm current and target bottles per minute, shift pattern, batch sizes and how often changeovers are expected. |
| Line integration | Check whether the capper is standalone or part of filling, conveying, labelling, coding and packing. |
| Operator method | Review cap placement, bottle loading, change parts, cleaning access, training and daily quality checks. |
