New Pallet Wrapping Machines
About Our Pallet Wrapping Machines
Focus Packaging offers a full range of pallet wrapping machines – often referred to as shrink wrap machines – to suit every individual business need; capable of wrapping the following:
- long extruded profiles
- a polo mint, style product (hollow in the middle), be it round or square
- normal sized pallets
- loads that are too large or heavy to spin on a normal turntable pallet wrapper
Our turn table shrink wrap machines can be integrated into a conveyor production line, while our ring wrappers and overhead arm wrappers will also be integrated, but straddle it.
Our Alpha range of pallet wrap machines contains a solution for any quest.
The Widest Range of Shrink Wrap Machines Available Anywhere
All of our stretch wrap machines have the advantage of being a pedigree of time; i.e. having been continuously developed over the years to be reliable, robust in construction and versatile enough to wrap any load the best in their category. They produce very cost-efficient wrapping solutions every time.
With a service contract and our field servicing facility, our machines will give you years of trouble-free use.
The range starts from the manual Walk A Bout and the humble Alpha 104 – designed to wrap the lowest number of pallets mechanically on a daily basis – to the sophisticated Alpha G Ring wrapper, which straddles a production line that carries pallets too heavy to be rotated, or just not suitable for rotation (such as mineral water).
However, it is often the Alpha Robot that draws the most attention. With its multitude of individual recordable programs, high power stretch ratio of 300% for stretching the film, and being totally mobile and capable of wrapping a pallet completely unaided, it is the most versatile piece of pallet wrapping technology available anywhere. Because of its mobility, this makes it a particularly practical and cost-effective pallet wrapping machine. It also eliminates the necessity of moving unwrapped pallet loads through the works to the static pallet wrapper. One charge hand can operate 2 or 3 robots simultaneously in the same packing area.
Modern Turntable Pallet Wrapping Machines
The most numerous types of pallet wrappers are the individual turntable wrappers, found in most business premises. They are either mechanical brake or power stretch machines. The older types of power stretch will only stretch your film by 100%. The newer types of pallet wrappers will stretch your film by 300 to 400%. This is how you save real money on wrapping costs, by stretching the film further.
A 100% stretch wrapper will offer 2 meters of film to wrap your pallet, a 300% stretch wrapper will offer 4 meters of film to wrap your pallet. That’s 50% saving on your film costs. So a £10,000 spend on a pallet will reduce to £5000. We offer you free advice and guidance here and will also test your machine for performance.
Bespoke Pallet Wrapping Potential
To wrap unusual products like wooden mouldings, metal or plastic extrusions, metal tubing or laminate floors, we offer the manual or automatic Orbital Wrapper. Equally, should your product have no end or beginning – i.e. it’s polo-shaped like a rubber tyre, a coil of metal or flexible plastic tubing – our Artimas pallet wrapping systems have the solution for you.
Industry Applications
Pallet wrapping machines are essential across a variety of industries, significantly enhancing the efficiency and reliability of supply chains. In the manufacturing sector, these machines use pallet wrap to secure products for storage and shipping, ensuring they remain intact throughout the process. A stretch wrap machine is widely employed in the food and beverage industry to protect perishable goods from contamination and damage. The logistics and distribution sectors rely on stretch wrapping for stabilizing loads on pallets, which is critical for safe and efficient transportation. Plastic film used in these machines provides an economical and durable solution for wrapping pallets, offering superior protection. Pump trucks are often used in warehouses to move wrapped pallets, highlighting the importance of stretch film in facilitating smooth operations. The pharmaceutical industry also benefits from these machines by using them to securely package and transport sensitive medical supplies.
By integrating a pallet wrapper into their operations, companies across these industries can achieve better load stability, reduced damage rates, and improved overall efficiency. Additionally, innovations such as compressed air assist in the wrapping process, ensuring tight and secure packaging, which is vital for maintaining product integrity and optimizing supply chain performance.
