An industrial strapping machine is a game-changer for any warehouse looking to streamline its operations. These machines can wrap and secure pallets with a single strap, reducing labor costs and increasing productivity.

The key benefit of using an industrial strapping machine is that it can process up to 40 straps per minute, significantly faster than manual strapping methods. This increased efficiency allows warehouses to handle more shipments in less time.

With an industrial strapping machine, you can also expect to see a reduction in damage to goods during transit. By securing pallets tightly, you can prevent shifting and bruising of products, which can be costly to replace.

By investing in an industrial strapping machine, you'll be able to free up staff to focus on more important tasks, such as customer service and inventory management.

Automatic Strapping Machines

Automatic strapping machines can be used to strap pallets without moving the load, saving space on the production line. They are designed to handle various pallet strapping processes.

The strapping frame of some automatic strapping machines is foldable, making them ideal for storage. The Vertical Strapping Machine SKV1220 is a great example of this, with a package height of 2,000 mm and a strap head made by TITAN.

Some fully-automatic strapping machines, like the UCB model, offer automatic machine adaptation to package dimensions via adjustable recipes. This feature ensures that the machine can handle different package sizes with ease.

Automatic

Automatic strapping machines are designed to make your life easier, and they're capable of strapping pallets with precision. The SKV-1220, for example, can strap pallets with a package width of 1,300 mm and a package height of 2,000 mm.

Some automatic strapping machines, like the FV|PRO, can even strap pallets without moving the load, saving space on the production line. This is a game-changer for businesses with limited space.

The SKV-1220 uses a strap head made by TITAN, model VK10K120-16, and a PLC from SIEMENS for advanced and reliable performance. This level of technology ensures that your pallets are strapped securely and efficiently.

The FV|PRO's foldable strapping frame is a great feature for businesses that need to save space in storage. It's also a great example of how automatic strapping machines can be designed with practicality in mind.

With an automatic strapping machine like the UCB, you can expect to see a high strapping rate and easy maintenance due to its automatic removable strapping unit. This means you can focus on other tasks while your machine takes care of strapping your pallets.

Bale Intra-Wrap

The Intra-Wrap packing system is a game-changer for staple fiber lines, automating more than 130 lines to date.

More than 28 bales can be wrapped per hour with the Intra-Wrap system, making it a highly efficient option.

Different wrapping materials can be used with Intra-Wrap, including PE-film and PP-woven.

Industrial Strapping Machine Models

Industrial strapping machine models come in various types, each with its own set of features and benefits. Automatic strapping machines like the Easy Strap 309 and A-93L are designed for high-speed strapping, with rates of up to 180 packages per hour.

These machines are ideal for large-scale packaging operations. The Easy Strap 309, for example, has a strap width range of 600 mm to 1,800 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of packaging applications.

Semi-automatic strapping machines like the ErgoPack 713E and X-pert Line offer more flexibility and control over the strapping process. They often come with features like electronically controlled drives and joystick controls, making it easier to adjust strap tension and speed.

Some semi-automatic strapping machines, such as the FP-SP 80-88 E and SP5 ES, are designed for specific industries like warehouses and workshops. These machines are ideal for strapping boxes, packages, and bundles in these environments.

Here's a list of some popular industrial strapping machine models:

  • Easy Strap 309
  • A-93L
  • ErgoPack 713E
  • FP-SP 80-88 E
  • SP5 ES

These machines vary in terms of strap width, strip thickness, and power requirements. For example, the MH-102A automatic strapping machine has a strap width range of 19 to 32 mm and a power requirement of 3 or 1.1 kW.

The choice of strapping machine ultimately depends on the specific needs of the packaging operation. By considering factors like strapping speed, strap width, and power requirements, operators can select the most suitable machine for their application.

Other Equipment and Features

Industrial strapping machines are designed to handle a variety of tasks, and one of the key features is the type of strap material they support. Polypropylene (PP) straps are a popular choice due to their non-corrosive material and longer retention.

One of the most significant advantages of polypropylene straps is their weight. They are 80% lighter than other types of strapping, making them easier to use, especially when working with lightweight packages.

The versatility of strap materials is another important feature. Industrial strapping machines can support polypropylene (PP), polyester (PET), and steel straps, giving you the flexibility to choose the best material for your specific needs.

Advanced sealing mechanisms are also a key feature of many industrial strapping machines. These include heat sealing, friction welding, and metal seals, allowing you to customize your strapping process to suit different package sizes and weights.

If you're looking for a high-speed and efficient strapping solution, consider an automatic model. These machines offer rapid and consistent strapping, making them ideal for high-volume applications.

Here are some key features to consider when selecting an industrial strapping machine:

  • Polypropylene (PP) strap support
  • Polyester (PET) strap support
  • Steel strap support
  • Heat sealing
  • Friction welding
  • Metal seals
  • Adjustable tension control

Pallet and Packaging

Pallets are often used to transport heavy goods, and a pallet can weigh anywhere from 20 to 40 pounds.

In the context of industrial strapping, pallets are typically strapped to prevent them from shifting during transport. This is especially important when transporting fragile or heavy items.

Strapping pallets also helps to secure items like boxes and crates, which can be easily damaged if not properly secured.

Return Only

If you're looking to return products, you'll want to make sure your packaging can withstand the journey back to the sender. The TL5P strapping machine with press can guarantee a 3 by 2 crossed strapping operation to secure your packages.

For larger packages or special palettes, consider using a vertical strapping machine like the COBRA. This machine is designed for packages with a minimum height of 400 mm.

When it comes to strapping and packing conventional objects and cartons, the Q8 series automatic strapping machine is a suitable option. It can strap objects with a strap width of 25 or 32 mm.

The overall height and width of your strapping machine are also important considerations. The Q8 series measures 1,493 mm in height and 1,078 mm in width, while the COBRA measures 2,000 mm in height and 1,000 mm in width.
