Are you tired of hand wrapping pallets and dealing with wasted material and time? A stretch wrap machine doesn't just increase the number of pallets you can wrap in an hour, it also reduces stretch film costs, damage related costs, and gives time back to employees to work on other tasks. If you're considering a stretch wrapper investment, use the following information to learn how to choose a stretch wrapper that fits your needs.
To determine the machine best matched to handle your specific wrapping needs, you'll need to be able to answer the following questions:
Great Entry Level Value: The Eagle 1000BWS is a medium-duty semi-automatic machine that can crank out 20 loads per hour. It can wrap pallets up to 55” W x 55” L x 87” tall and up to 3,500 lbs. It comes standard with a 250% pre-stretch setting to make sure you get the most out of each roll of stretch film. The space-saving feature is the built-in scale which combines your wrapping and weighing process to save you space and time while wrapping loads.
Versatile and Rugged: Cousins 'The Switch' stretch wrapper is a rugged machine designed to easily upgrade from a semi-automatic to a fully automatic wrapper when you’re ready. It comes with a lifetime warranty on the pre-stretch rollers, a 65” high-profile turntable that can handle up to 4,500 lb loads, and the ability to wrap up to 30 loads per hour.
Bonus Features: The Rotoplat 708 features variable pre-stretch levels that maximize what level of film is applied to your pallets. This means you can turn down the amount of force applied to the sharp corners of a pallet or put a tighter wrap at the base of a load. It has an intuitive 7” color touchscreen so you can set up the parameters for wrapping each of your loads such as the amount of pre-stretch, containment force, rotation speed, and roping at nine levels on each load. You can upgrade your machine with automatic film cutting, automatic pneumatic roping, a ramp, and a ramp extension for electric fork trucks.
