200-Metre Tapes Help Reduce Costs And Pack Waste
Packaging equipment and materials supplier, Packer, has introduced Packer Bonus Tape on smaller cores that accommodate 200 metres of tape, which is comparable to three standard rolls of tape.
The ES 600A and ES 600 utilise a patented 600mm Chainlance mechanism to automatically carry strapping through the pallet void and back up the far side of the load to a 'working height'." He continued: "After receiving the strapping, the operator then uses a joystick to immediately retract the Chainlance back in to its coil framing, ready for the next strapping operation.
The Chainlance system ensures the operator can simply reach for the strapping, cut and friction-weld it using the Cyklop CB130 battery operated friction weld tool without ever having to bend down and manually thread the strapping tape at any point in the process." Hearn explained that the system provides advantage in terms of helping to safe-guard employees against a range of back-related heath and safety issues that often arise in the packaging and fulfilment industries.
The mobile, battery-operated Cyklop ES 600A and ES 600 accommodate polyester, polypropylene and textile strapping up to 25mm wide and a range of roll core sizes.
Its galvanised steel frame ensures its durability under the rigorous demands of a busy packing and strapping environment, with a brake unit offering adjustment to set the strap feeding at the right speed and tension, added Packer.
The machine is claimed to be suitable for strapping pallets crosswise and lengthwise and requires eight centimetres in floor clearance for the Chainlance.
Additional steering wheels also enable exact positioning of the strapper in front of a pallet to ensure greater strapping precision and speed, added the company.
