Stretch wrapping looks like a commodity until you price the film. A wrapper that applies more film than the load needs costs money on every pallet, every shift, for the life of the machine — which is why the useful comparison between machines is not the wrapping cycle but the pre-stretch ratio and the containment force applied.
MEPA supplies automatic stretch wrapping that secures pallets for storage and transport, in three configurations. Rotating ring machines operate without sliding electrical contacts, which improves safety, reduces overall weight and balances the rotating masses — giving low electrical consumption, reduced maintenance and high reliability, with modular components covering both conventional and large-format pallets. Rotating arm machines deposit film and stabilise the load on a fixed pallet, eliminating any risk of the load falling regardless of arm speed, which makes them the natural choice for light, easily deformable or unstable loads. Rotating table machines are built for high load capacity and long working life in demanding conditions.
The control technology delivers the right amount of film at the right position with the right containment force, with multi-level variable pre-stretch, variable containment force at each level, strategic film placement and proactive corner compensation.
Which of the three suits a given line depends on throughput, load stability and the space available. MEPA specifies it against the pallets the plant actually produces.
