Thinking about the “intermediary” between palletizing and warehouse operations, the choice for the correct pallet stretch-wrapper is essential to guarantee a continuous flux.
The choice is mainly taken considering the following factors:
- Type of input unit
- Transport type
- Performances required
- Stability of the product on the pallet
- Need of an additional coverage
- Need of extra manipulations
Semi-automatic wrapper: indicated for low UDC fluxes (standard till 20 pallet/hour) which are disconnected from the production lines; the load and the unload of the pallets on the wrapping location, such as the management of start-end time machine cycle and the film loan are set by the operator. Solutions with
- rotary platform
- rotary arm
Completely automatic wrapper: It is necessary when pallets fluxes increase or when it is required an integration of the machine within an automatic implants. High performances range (till 130 pallet/hour) which are equipped with motorized loan of the extensible film, equipable with upper coverage device. Solutions with
- rotary platform
- rotary arm
- rotary ring
