The Right Strapping Tool for The Job.

 

W


hen it comes to almost any task in your plant / warehouse, you want to use the right tools for the job. There are so many reasons to make sure you have the right equipment, from saving money to helping your team be more productive.

There are some tasks where it’s clear you must have the right tools. For other tasks, like strapping applications, you may not be as concerned about having the “right” tool. An older handheld strapping tool or separate sealers and cutters might seem like enough to get the job done.

Having the wrong tools for your strapping applications could be costing you more than you realize. Here are a few reasons to make sure you’re always working with the right strap equipment.

The Wrong Tool Increases Worker Fatigue and Injuries: The wrong strapping tools, for example, can increase the risk of eye injuries or cuts. Your team members might also be at higher risk of burns or other injuries if they’re using old or poorly maintained tools.

Increases in Damages and Lost Product: Using the wrong strapping tool can also lead to increased damages or lost product. Straps that are too tight cut into the product, damaging it. On the other hand, if the straps aren’t tight enough, the product may slip loose and end up damaged or entirely unusable. The right tool, by contrast, helps you find the right tension every time. When straps are neither too tight nor too loose, your products will remain safe and pristine.

Lost Productivity on the Floor: The wrong tools can also lead to lower production on the floor. It’s easy to see how. Workers who are tired slow down and don’t get as much done. If people constantly need to wrestle with the tools or re-do strapping jobs, then they’re not being as efficient as they could be. Finally, worker injuries mean lost time.

Finding the Right Strap Tool: When seeking out new strap tools, you want to make sure to choose a supplier that can fulfill the needs of your industry and offer any additional support you may require. Seek out a strapping tool manufacturer who are well-known and have experience. If you’re not sure what tools will be the best fit for your business, talk to the experts. They can help you discover tools that are the right fit. Call us at 813 242 6995 or sales@quickpakinc.com

Why Reinforced Edges on Pallet Wrap?

Image
When it comes to shipping and storage, the stability of the pallet is paramount.  Pallet wrap, also known as stretch film or stretch wrap, is a highly stretchable plastic film that secures items tightly together. But not all pallet wraps are created equal. The inclusion of reinforced edges makes some stretch films stand out in the realm of shipment protection. So, what exactly does this mean, and why should businesses care? Before delving into the specifics of reinforced edges, it is essential to understand the role of pallet wrap. The primary purpose of wrapping pallets is to stabilize and secure products during transportation or storage. Pallet wrap must be durable and resilient to withstand a variety of stresses, including load shifting, vibrations, and even environmental factors like moisture and dust. Reinforced edges refer to the additional strengthening material along the sides of the pallet wrap. This can be in the form of a band of thicker plastic or a mesh-like strip ...
