For closing bottles with sterile caps, the caps are placed in a non-sterile environment in a vertical arrangement and are supplied vertically to a first sterile area. The interior of the caps is arranged to be accessible horizontally. The caps are sterilized in the first sterile area and transferred to a second sterile area where the caps are placed onto bottles. Subsequently, the bottle is closed with the cap. The machine for sterile closing of bottles with caps has a sterilization device with an individualization device for picking up caps and a vertical transport path feeding the caps to the sterilization chamber. A placing device receives the caps from the sterilization device and places the caps onto bottles. A closing device closes the bottles with the cap placed thereon. The sterilization device, the placing device, and the closing device operate as synchronized modules of a linear machine.

An electron beam cap-sterilizer radiates an electron beam onto caps while the caps are continuously conveyed. The caps are conveyed in the restricting conveying section while the movements of the caps are restricted, so that the caps roll down freely and separately from each other in the free conveying section. The electron beam radiating device emits electron beams onto the inside of the caps in the lateral direction while the caps are conveyed in the free conveying section. A deflecting device is provided in the free conveying section. The deflecting device is located at the opposite side of the electron beam radiating device to deflect the electron beams emitted by the electron beam radiating device onto the outside of the caps.

Device and method for the sterilization of seals (2) for closing bottles or similar containers, in particular for the sterilization of cap-like seals, with a transport system for moving the seals (2) through at least one treatment zone in which the seals (2) are sterilized, wherein the transport system in the at least one treatment zone has at least one rotor (10), which can be driven in rotation about a machine or rotor axis (MA), with a multiplicity of seal holders (11) formed on the periphery of this rotor (10), with which seal holders the seals (2) can be moved through the at least one treatment zone along a treatment path between a seal input (31) and a seal output (33). On the at least one treatment path, there is at least one application station (23, 24) with a spraying device (20, 20') for sterilizing agent, which spraying device (20, 20') is directed towards at least one seal holder (11), in order to apply a sterilizing agent to the individual seals (2) held in the seal holder (11).

Device (1) for feeding container closures, comprising guiding means (2) for conveying the closures (100) to a treatment station associable with said device.
