Abstract (en)
A cap, arrangement and method for determining the orientation of a cap (34) to be arranged on a neck portion of a package (10) is provided. The arrangement (100) comprises a cap holder (150) configured to hold the cap (34), a drive unit, and a sensor arrangement. The drive unit is configured to rotate the holder (150) around its symmetry axis or rotate the sensor arrangement around the holder (150) such that the relative orientation between the cap (34) and the sensor arrangement changes, wherein the cap is provided with at least one marking (36a, 36b), and wherein the sensor arrangement is configured to detect the at least one marking (36a, 36b) during said rotation, and to determine the orientation of the cap (34) based on the at least one detected marking (36a, 36b).
