Strapex has space-saving
October 1st 2007 Strapex has further
extended its range with two
new families of pallet
stretchwrapping machines.
The new SWA range of
semi-automatic pallet
wrappers incorporates a
rotating arm, which encircles
the pallet with wrapping film
while the pallet remains
stationary. The lack of
centrifugal forces means
stress and strain on both the
load and the equipment is
minimised, making this
equipment suitable for very
heavy, fragile or unstable
loads. The machines require
minimal space as no
turntable or ramp access and
no hold down device is
required. They can be pillar
or wall mounted, and offer
four programmable
wrapping programs with
eight functions. Up to 35
pallets per hour can be
wrapped. The SWA products
are suited to production
plants with hygiene
regulations, as the floor is
left clear. They can
accommodate pallets of up
to 2900mm in height, with
maximum pallet area of
1250mm x 1250mm. An
optional pull-out rotating
arm allows this to be
extended to 1400mm x
1400mm. The SWR range of
ring system pallet wrappers
is suitable for either standalone
use or full integration
into mainstream production.
Film insertion, wrapping,
cording up at the film end
and film cutting are all
automatic, and again the
pallet remains stationary
during wrapping, which can
be started and finished at
any height required. More articles from Strapex: |
