Abstract: Systems and methods for removing a cap or lid from a container are disclosed. The systems include a decapper for removing a cap from a body of a container. The decapper includes a base configured to rest on a support surface and a prime mover supported by the base. A cap remover is supported by the base and is rotatable relative to the base about an axis of rotation. The cap remover is arranged to engage the cap of the container. The prime mover is operatively coupled to the cap remover to rotate the cap remover about the axis of rotation to remove the cap from the body of the container when the cap is engaged with the cap remover. The cap remover is arranged relative to the base such that the axis of rotation is oriented generally horizontally when the base rests on the support surface.
