Heavy-duty wrapping machines

Heavy-duty wrapping machines, also known as stretch wrapping machines, are specialized equipment used to wrap large or heavy palletized loads with stretch film for secure transportation and storage. These machines are designed to handle high volumes and heavy loads in industrial settings. Here are some key features and types of heavy-duty wrapping machines:

1. Turntable Stretch Wrappers: Turntable stretch wrappers are the most common type of heavy-duty wrapping machines. They feature a rotating turntable where the palletized load is placed. As the turntable rotates, the stretch film is dispensed and wrapped around the load. Turntable wrappers are available in semi-automatic, automatic, and robotic configurations, offering various levels of automation and throughput.
2. Rotary Arm Stretch Wrappers: Rotary arm stretch wrappers have a vertical rotating arm that moves around the stationary load, applying stretch film as it moves. This configuration is ideal for wrapping unstable or lightweight loads that may be damaged by rotation, as the load remains stationary during the wrapping process. Rotary arm wrappers are typically faster than turntable wrappers and are suitable for high-volume operations.
3. Horizontal Ring Stretch Wrappers: Horizontal ring stretch wrappers feature a horizontal rotating ring that moves around the stationary load, applying stretch film from all sides. This configuration offers high-speed wrapping and is suitable for irregularly shaped or unstable loads that require extra containment force.
4. Robotic Stretch Wrappers: Robotic stretch wrappers use robotic arms to wrap palletized loads with stretch film. These machines offer flexibility and versatility in wrapping various load shapes and sizes. Robotic wrappers can be integrated into existing production lines and programmed to perform custom wrapping patterns.
