Fromm's turntable stretch wrapper machine offers customizable wrapping options, allowing operators to adjust film tension and layering based on load weight and size. Our entry level models feature an automatic cut-and-clamp system, streamlining the process for efficiency. Once the wrapping cycle is complete, the film is cut and secured, preventing unraveling during transit. They also offer additional wrapping at the top or bottom for enhanced security.
The turntable stretch wrapper with patented Æolus™ Air technology, which revolutionizes film attachment. Unlike traditional wrapping systems, this innovative feature ensures a secure and consistent film application using controlled airflow, reducing the risk of film breakage while optimizing load containment.
This automated system ensures consistent, high-quality packaging, reducing the risk of product damage and improving load stability during storage and transportation, making it an essential tool for warehouses and distribution centers handling high-volume shipments.
These machines function by utilizing a rotating platform that spins the pallet while a mechanical arm systematically applies the stretch film, ensuring an even distribution.
The FROMM FS335 provide a balance of performance and affordability for mid-sized businesses.
Implementing stretch wrapping equipment isn't just about faster packaging; it's a strategic move to safeguard your most valuable asset: your employees. By automating the process, you drastically reduce the risk of injuries caused by manual wrapping, creating a safer, more ergonomic environment. This translates to fewer workplace accidents, reduced insurance costs, and a more engaged workforce.
