Semi-Automatic Rotary Tower Stretch Wrapper

The Electro-Wrap Semi-Automatic Rotary Tower pallet wrapper is designed and manufactured to offer a trouble-free solution for the end of your packaging line.

The system operation begins as the pallet load is positioned under the rotary arm of the Electro-Wrap stretch wrapping machine. The film is manually attached to the pallet load and starts the stretch wrapping cycle.  The Film-Saver unwinds the film and passes it through a series of rollers simultaneously pre-stretching the material common to this type of wrapping operation.

The film saver carriage travels up the tower and then back down ensuring the load or product is properly and evenly wrapped and secured.  As soon as the wrapping sequence is completed, the film is automatically cut and manually wiped onto the load to secure the film tail. Once the film tail is secured, the wrapped load can be removed, and the cycle repeated.
