Abstract (en)
[origin: EP2733112A1] The bottles are fed to a capsule dispenser (16) which is adapted to place a capsule (20) having a slot (22) on its lateral wall upon each of the bottle necks (N). The capsuled bottles are fed to a carousel (28) provided with a plurality of peripheral stations (30), each of which is adapted to receive a respective bottle (B) and to perform the following operations upon it: raising the capsule (20) from the neck (N) by a pick-up device (38); opening outwards the tab (L) of the cage (C), at least partially, by an opening device; aligning the tab (L) to the slot (22) by axially rotating at least one of the bottle (B) and the capsule (20); re-laying the capsule (20) on the bottle neck. The tab (L) will insert into the slot (22) and protrude outside the capsule.
