Automated Pallet Wrappers
Automate the tedious job of applying stretch wrap to pallet loads.
These automated pallet wrappers, or stretch wrappers, are used for wrapping shipping pallets containing bags, boxes, pails, and more. They can be stand-alone automatic or semi-automatic stretch wrap machines. They can also be fully automatic wrapping machines that are integrated into conveyors on a bagging line.
Each type of pallet wrapping machine can be pre-programmed with separate wrap patterns and speeds for different types of loads. Once programmed and set, all it takes is a simple push of a button to start the automated wrapping process.
- Turntable stretch wrap machines turn or rotate the pallet load as it is wrapped. These types of machines are used for wrapping 35-45 pallets an hour or less. Low profile turntables are best for use with pallet jacks, while high profile stretch wrappers are used when loading with a forklift.
- Rotary arm stretch wrap machines are used when you want to keep a pallet load stationary. They can wrap up to 35-95 pallets per hour. These types of loads wrapped by a rotary arm could include tall pallet loads, very heavy or very light loads, or unstable pallet loads. They are also used in bagging or packaging lines that require washdown environments because there are no drives or parts at floor level.
Available Models
Turntable, Semi-Automatic Stretch Wrap Machines (Fork Lift or Pallet Jack Loaded)
These types of stand-alone, automated pallet wrappers are some of the most popular and affordable machines on the market today. Choose from low profile and high profile semi-automatic stretch wrap machines that average up to 35 loads per hour per single turntable.
Once a pallet is ready to be wrapped, an operator will transport it to the turntable using a pallet jack or forklift. Then, with a simple push of a button, the machine will rotate the turntable as wrap is applied using an automated film carriage. A set amount of plastic stretch wrap is applied with a consistent stretch, thus reducing plastic wrap costs.

Turntable, Fully Automatic Stretch Wrap Machines (Fork Lift or Pallet Jack Loaded)
These types of automated pallet wrappers use an A-arm to attach and cut the plastic stretch wrap. These machines are operated using a wireless remote. This eliminates the need for an operator to leave the forklift to cut the plastic stretch wrap, thus providing labor cost savings while eliminating some safety concerns.
Once a pallet is ready to be wrapped, an operator will transport it to the turntable using a forklift or pallet jack. Then, with a simple push of a button on the remote, the machine will rotate the turntable as wrap is applied using an automated film carriage. A set amount of plastic stretch wrap is applied with a consistent stretch, thus reducing plastic wrap costs.
