Abstract (en)
There is described a method for at least filling a receptacle (2) with a pourable product and for at least applying a closure (3) onto the receptacle (2) within a packaging machine (1) having at least one filling-and-capping head (15). The receptacle (2) is filled with the pourable product by the filling-and-capping head (15) during a filling phase, followed by the application of the closure (3) by the filling-and-capping head (15) during a capping phase. During the capping phase the closure (3) is fed to a centering device (47) of the filling-and-capping head (15), the closure (3) is inserted into and retained by the centering device (47), the closure (3) and the receptacle (2)) are brought into contact with one another and then a relative movement is induced between the receptacle (2) and the closure (3) for fastening the closure (3) on the receptacle (2).
