Pallet Stretch Wrapping Machine

Pallet Stretch Wrapping Machine

A Pallet Stretch Wrapping Machine is an industrial packaging machine used to wrap palletized products with stretch film for safe storage and transportation.
It improves load stability, protects products from external damage, and helps reduce stretch film usage through controlled wrapping.

What is a Pallet Stretch Wrapping Machine?

A Pallet Stretch Wrapping Machine is used in industries to securely wrap palletized products with stretch film.
The machine ensures uniform film tension and proper coverage around the pallet, making the load stable and secure during handling and transit.

It provides:

  • Packing strength

  • Protection from dust, moisture, and pilferage

  • Reduced film consumption

This machine is ideal for warehouses, factories, and logistics operations where pallet stability is critical.

Types of Pallet Stretch Wrapping Machines

We manufacture seven main types of pallet wrapping machines:

1. Manual Type Pallet Wrapping Machine (PIM01)

This is a low-cost pallet wrapping machine suitable for small-scale operations.
In this model, only the turntable rotates automatically, while the film up-down movement is done manually by the operator.

Features:

  • Automatic turntable rotation

  • Manual film up/down system

Advantages:

  • Compact design

  • Budget-friendly

  • Easy to move

Disadvantages:

  • Limited film saving

  • Manual operation required

2. Pallet Wrapping Machine with Ramp (PIM02)

This is one of the most preferred pallet wrapping machines among industrial users.
The ramp allows easy loading and unloading of pallets using forklifts or stackers.

Features:

  • Photo-eye sensor for height detection

  • Heavy-duty turntable structure

  • PLC-controlled operation

  • VFD motors for speed control

Disadvantages:

  • Manual stacker may require at least two operators

  • Electric stacker is recommended for smooth operation

3. Pallet Wrapping Machine with Holding System (PIM03)

This machine is designed for lightweight products that may shift or fall due to film tension during wrapping.
It is suitable for product weights ranging from 10 kg to 150 kg.

Applications:

  • Water tank industry

  • Low-weight corrugated box industry

Types of Holding System:

  • Motorized holding system

  • Pneumatic holding system

4. Pallet Wrapping Machine with Auto-Cutting System (PIM06)

This model works similar to the ramp type pallet wrapping machine but includes an automatic film mounting and cutting system.
It significantly reduces manual effort and improves wrapping speed.

Advantages:

  • Time-saving operation

  • Reduced labor requirement

5. M-Type Pallet Wrapping Machine (PIM04)

This machine is ideal when loading and unloading are done using a manual stacker by a single operator.
The M-shaped cut under the turntable allows easy pallet entry without lifting the load.

6. Arm Type Pallet Wrapping Machine (PIM05)

In this machine, the pallet remains stationary while the wrapping arm rotates around it.
This design eliminates the need for a turntable and simplifies loading and unloading.

Advantages:

  • Easy handling of pallets

  • Space-saving design

7. Arm Type Pallet Wrapping Machine with Conveyor System (PIM07)

This model is suitable for high-production environments where pallets move through conveyors.
The pallet enters through the infeed conveyor, gets wrapped at the station, and exits through the outfeed conveyor.

Advantages:

  • Fast and continuous packing

  • Easy handling

  • Reduced labor cost

Features of Pallet Stretch Wrapping Machines

  • High-quality construction

  • Up-Down system for covering maximum pallet size

  • Pre-stretch system (up to 250% stretch)

  • AC motor with frequency inverter control

  • Adjustable film tension

  • Separate Start / Reset / Emergency Stop buttons

  • Heavy-duty chain drive

  • Turntable always stops at home position

  • One-touch automatic programs + manual run option

  • Advanced photo-eye sensor to detect package height

  • Easy-to-load stretch film unit

Innovative Feature:

  • Power pre-stretch system for 50–90 micron film stretched up to 300%

Specifications

  • Stretching Type: Pre-Stretch

  • Control System: PLC Controller

  • Turntable Diameter: 1650 mm

  • Maximum Pallet Weight: 2500 kg

  • Maximum Load Height: 2500 mm

  • Working Size: 1200 x 1200 mm

  • Power: 3 HP

Advantages

  • Protects from dust, moisture, and foreign particles

  • Prevents pilferage

  • Provides pallet stability

  • Scratch resistance

  • Easy and fast handling

  • Economical packing

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How much does it cost to stretch wrap a pallet?

Depends on pallet size and film usage.

Example: Pallet 1000x1000x1000 mm uses 200–300 gm of film → ₹25–35 (~$0.35–0.40 USD)

How much does an automatic pallet wrapper cost?

Depends on pallet size and model.

Ramp model: $4250–$7500 (~₹3,00,000–5,00,000)

How many times should a pallet be wrapped?

Depends on film strength.

Example: For 23-micron film, minimum 3 turns at bottom and top, keeping film tight

How many pallets can be wrapped per hour?

Normal size pallet: 30–35 pallets per hour

What is the maximum pallet size this machine can wrap?

Customizable; maximum: height 3.5 m, width 1.8 m, length 1.8 m

Which type of stretch film can be used?

  • Manual grade (low performance)
