Semi-Automatic vs. Automatic Stretch Wrappers

Image
Stretch wrapping is an essential part of distribution and shipment processes across a range of industries. Securing loads and protecting them from the elements relies heavily upon quality stretch wrapping. While warehouses each have their own way of wrapping and preparing pallets for shipping, some methods are superior. Hand-wrapping, for example, is not an effective solution as it can lead to contaminating products or wrapping in such a way that products might get damaged in storage or transportation. It is far more effective to use semi-automatic or fully automatic stretch wrappers. Both have their advantages when it comes to efficiency and safety and either may offer the ideal packaging solution for your company. Either way, finding the right stretch wrapper for your pack line is essential. Understanding when to use semi-automatic stretch wrappers versus their fully automated counterparts can help you meet your business’s demands. The key difference is that human operators are s...

Steel Banding and Woven Polyester Strapping.

Image
  Steel strapping or banding is the oldest type of strapping on the market and is typically used for transporting extremely heavy and stable loads when high strength and minimal elongation (stretch) are desired. Today’s high steel prices are increasing your upfront costs to complete a project and ship product. Converting from steel strapping to woven polyester strapping can help you mitigate cost increases and improve safety without compromising durability. What is Woven Polyester Strapping? Woven strap is made from high tenacity polyester cording that is tightly woven to provide superior tensile strength while remaining lightweight. Woven strapping can be used for heavy shipments, railroad shipments, or long-term outdoor storage. The benefits of using woven polyester strapping include: -More cost-effective than steel strapping. -No sharp edges to cause injuries or tire damage. -Strong as steel but weighs 50-75% less. -Easily applied and can be re-tensioned. -Will no...

Your company may have raw materials such as steel, brass, copper, or aluminum that require careful storage and transportation, free from the threat of rusting. Ever wondered how rust forms? Rustic Metals need three crucial elements: moisture, air, and the metal itself. When these elements converge, they trigger an electrochemical reaction called corrosion. Rust manifests only if all three elements participate in the reaction; if one element is absent, rust will not occur. Extracting moisture from the formula that leads to rust formation. The metal product is wrapped in an impermeable compound foil / film / paper, and enou...

Rotating Stretch Film Stock

Image
  Stretch film is essential to transporting and storing goods safely. It keeps items from moving during transit, while protecting products from both indoor and outdoor elements. Due to the product’s importance, companies need to understand how to prevent and detect stretch film expiration. The various film types react differently to extreme heat, cold, humidity, and other factors. Stretch film lasts for a long time , but extreme temperatures can impact performance: Heat: High heat affects film by making it more extensible so that the wrap no longer maintains its width and will stretch more than desired. Cold: The opposite is true with freezing temperatures. Cold exposure results in film that no longer stretches as expected, reducing the yield and tackifier. Films will react differently depending on their type. For instance, blown and cast films can undergo a process known as telescoping when exposed to high heat. The layers slip and create a roll edge that is no longer straig...

Best Carton Sealing System for your Business

Image
When selecting a sealing method, businesses should consider several critical questions: How heavy is the carton? Is it likely to lose shape or open under stacking pressure or during transportation? How valuable are the goods inside? Is there a high risk of tampering or pilferage? Do your packaging requirements call for tamper-evident, tamper-resistant, or tamper-proof solutions? Which method offers the best overall value? Consider not just material costs, but also productivity, equipment investment, labor, damage, returns, and potential pilferage. Tape Sealing: Tape sealing is a frequently used method for closing cartons, primarily due to its simplicity and low cost. It involves applying adhesive tape—either manually or automatically—over the top and bottom flaps of the carton. Various types of tape are available, including pressure-sensitive, reinforced filament, water-activated, tamper-evident, and paper-based options. Stapling is a mechanical sealing method that provide...

The Full Cost of Packaging

Image
Packaging costs are often misunderstood. Businesses frequently focus on unit price alone, but packaging has far-reaching effects across your entire supply chain. Inefficient packaging can drive up labor costs, increase transport charges, and waste valuable warehouse space.  Cost reduction isn’t finding cheaper boxes. It’s about finding smarter, optimized packaging solutions that reduce spending and add value across your operation. Packaging optimization is the process of reviewing and refining your packaging to use less material while maintaining or improving protection and performance. By rightsizing packs and removing unnecessary components, you can lower your packaging spend without compromising quality.  This could include switching to lighter weight board grades, using integrated packaging solutions or removing unnecessary void fill. Benefits include: -Lower material use, which typically results in reduced cost per pack. -Less storage space required in warehouses....

Filament Tape reinforced strength for medium to heavy-duty applications.

Image
Filament tape is a durable adhesive tape used for securing cardboard boxes, heavy-duty packaging, bundling, pallet unitizing, and general reinforcement in any sector.

Why use Gummed Reinforced Paper Tape?

Image
If you’re looking to secure packages securely gummed paper tape is an excellent choice for any packaging operation. Gummed paper tape also known as water-activated tape requires water to activate the adhesive. The tape comes in rolls with a dry adhesive on one side. The adhesive then needs moisture to activate the adhesive and create a strong bond with the carton or package. This can be done with WAT tape dispenser equipped with a water reservoir. WAT Tape Dispensers really take the strain out of sealing and speed up the packing process. Strength: Much stronger than standard packing tape, gummed paper tape is suitable for sealing cartons. Once applied, it creates a “bond” with your box, making the entire carton stronger and more secure. Better product protection means less damage, cutting down costs associated with replacing broken or lost products. Tamper-evidence: Gummed paper tape is an excellent tamper evident solution. Once removed from a box, it cannot be resealed, making ...

Are Semi-Automatic Strapping Machines Worth Their Cost?

Image
  Semi-automatic strapping machines are a fast and efficient way to strap small and large packages, bundle items together and seal boxes for shipping, creating a time saving asset to the production line or shipping process. Updates to these machines to utilize electronic tension means they now have fewer moving parts inside, making them more dependable than strapping machines in the past. These machines have adjustable tension settings and can be used with various widths and thicknesses of polypropylene strap. Packages needing to be strapped are simply placed on the table of the machine, the strap is then passed over the top of the package and back down the opposite side of the package into the channel on the top of the machine, from here the machine will tension, seal and cut the strap. This can be done up to 17 times in 1 minute and no extra tools or seals are required, offering increased productivity and reduced labor.     These cost-effective machines have a stur...
