Automatic Strapping Machine

An Automatic Strapping Machine is a packaging device used to secure packages, boxes, or pallets with a plastic (PP/PET) strap for shipping and storage. It automates the process of tensioning, sealing (usually by heat or friction welding), and cutting the strap around the package.

🔧 Key Features:

• Fully automatic operation: Detects the package and straps without manual intervention.

• High-speed strapping: Ideal for high-volume packaging lines.

• Consistent tensioning and sealing: Ensures uniform and secure packaging.

• User-friendly controls: Often with touchscreens or programmable logic controllers (PLC).

• Low maintenance: Many come with self-lubricating or jam-reducing designs.

📦 Applications:

• Logistics & Warehousing

• Carton packaging

• Food & Beverage industry

• Textile industry

• E-commerce & parcel delivery

• Printing & publishing

🔍 Types of Strapping Used:

• PP (Polypropylene) – For lighter packages.

• PET (Polyester) – For heavier or palletized loads.

✅ Benefits:

• Increases packaging speed & efficiency

• Reduces labor costs

• Improves package security

• Reduces material waste compared to manual strapping

🏭 Common Models:

1. Arch-type automatic machines – With a fixed frame for cartons.

2. Inline strapping machines – Used in conveyor-based systems.

3. Pallet strapping machines – For large, heavy loads.
