The Stretch Film Wrapper and its Advantages
First of all, before investigating which is the best type for your company, we need to answer a basic question: what is a stretch film wrapper?
It is a machine that, as the name suggests, wraps stretch film around products or pallets, also known as stretch wrap or stretch film. The latter is a thin and flexible plastic packaging material used to protect products.
Generally, special packaging machines are used to apply it, namely the stretch film wrapper. Here are its advantages:
Product protection – The stretch film wrapper helps apply stretch film to completely protect goods from damage, dust, and moisture.
Efficiency – Using a stretch film wrapper reduces packaging time and increases the efficiency of the production process.
Cost savings – Using a stretch film wrapper can reduce packaging and shipping costs by using less packaging material and optimizing packaging times.
What to Consider when Choosing a Stretch Film Wrapper
Choosing the right stretch film machines depends on several factors. First, make sure to choose a machine with a rotation width suitable for the size of your products. For example, if you need to choose a pallet wrapper, keep in mind the measurements of your pallets.
Secondly, estimate your production volume: larger and faster stretch film wrappers will optimize the packaging process for a large-scale industry.
Additionally, verify technical features such as motor power, electronic control system, and the ability to adjust stretch film tension to choose the packaging machine best suited to your needs.
