Automatic stretch wrapper for food and beverage industry

Optimize your packaging line with a high-speed stretch wrapper that ensures safe, efficient wrapping and maximizes floor space, addressing the challenges of limited space and operator safety.

The RT Automatic™ Stretch Wrapper, from Robopac, is engineered for industries such as food, beverage, and personal care, offering unparalleled efficiency in securing palletized loads. This machine operates using a single motor stretch carriage with a pre-stretch capability of up to 400%, ensuring minimal film usage. Designed for high-volume applications, it delivers up to 40 loads per hour at 17 RPM, ideal for products ranging from soda cans to motor oil containers. The RT Automatic boasts a compact footprint of 169 square feet, saving valuable production space. It integrates seamlessly into automated lines with its Allen Bradley Panelview control and CompactLogix PLC, allowing precise parameter adjustments. Safety is paramount, featuring Category 3 safety specifications with Rolling Safety Doors™ and Safety Guard™ systems, preventing operational hazards. Its robust construction from formed steel ensures durability, while options like Cube® SMART Stretch Wrapping Technology enhance load stability and protection. The machine is engineered for low maintenance, utilizing a patented Cut and Swipe System to secure the film without the need for welding. Compliance with UL 508A and equipped with emergency-stop functions underline its operational reliability.
