The familiar crown closure for carbonated beverage bottles is one type of press-on closure .... Other types of press-on closures are snap-fit caps, with or without a tamper-evident band; dispensing caps, which are often secondary closures; and overcaps. Like screw caps, press-on caps can be applied by chucks and rollers; but the chucks and rollers do not need twisting action, nor clutches for torque control. 1, record 3, English, - press%2Don%20cap
