How the Kinetic™ Capper Works
The Kinetic™ capping machine works on the principle of kinetic energy, where energy is increased as speed or weight is increased.
The amount of torque applied to the cap is determined by the speed at which the chuck is spinning in combination with the weight of the chuck and torque adjusting weight you are using. The Kinetic™ capping machine comes with 5 torque adjusting weights (figure 1).

Since the speed of the machine is fixed and the weight of the chuck is determined by the size of the cap you are tightening, the way to adjust the torque is by changing which torque adjusting weight you use.

Adjusting the Torque on the Kinetic™ Capping Machine
To increase the amount of output torque add a larger weight onto
the sleeve of the chuck. To decrease the amount of torque add a smaller
weight onto the sleeve of the chuck. For some applications, you may
find that using no torque adjusting weight will provide the torque
output that is appropriate
