What are Strapping Machines and Their Benefits

Strapping machines are sophisticated devices designed to expedite the process of securing pallets or products with resilient plastic or similar materials, ensuring they remain intact during transit. These machines are available in various sizes and configurations.

For instance, there are portable, battery-operated strapping machines that workers can conveniently use on factory or warehouse floors. These machines are advantageous due to their reliance on compact batteries, making them highly portable.

Additionally, archless strapping machines, which are approximately the height of an assembly line, allow for seamless integration into existing production processes. On the other hand, arched strapping machines can be placed near an assembly line to accommodate larger items, achieving impressive speeds of up to 60 straps per minute. The automation of these machines significantly diminishes the time needed for prepping products for shipment.

All strapping machines utilize a dispenser to encircle products with plastic or other material strips. In some units, like the handheld variants, this dispenser is integrated into the machine.

Larger, arched machines feature a separate, powered dispenser that loads new coils or bundles of plastic strapping once the previous one is exhausted. These machines use a system of pulleys to store and prepare the strap for effortless wrapping around the target product.

Typically, vertical strapping machines are preferred over horizontal ones. These automatic strapping machines employ photocells to detect the placement of the bundle, initiate wrapping, and halt the process upon completion. This degree of automation benefits businesses by freeing up workers to focus on other tasks, requiring minimal supervision or maintenance.

Summary: Strapping machines, whether automated or handheld, accelerate the process of using cable-like materials to secure products or packaging, facilitating easy transport.
