A tool or person that removes caps or coverings from something, such as a bottle opener or a device that removes protective caps.
From the verb 'decap' (to remove a cap) plus the agent suffix '-er' (one who does). 'Cap' comes from Latin 'cappa' meaning a hood or covering.
Some of the earliest decappers were simple metal tools from the 1800s, but modern ones get wild—there are electric decappers for industrial bottle plants that process millions of caps per day!
