Qimarox OEM Ringwrapper

Qimarox has released a shrink wrapper for OEMs and system integrators. The ring wrapper can wrap up to 100 pallets in foil/h and can be integrated in combination with the company’s palletising modules.

The wrapper is supplied without a control system, which allows system integrators to combine the control system of both the palletiser and the ring wrapper (and any other system components) in a single control unit, allowing for the simplification of control and integration of various components.

The ring wrapper is of steel construction resting on four columns, resulting in a machine which is stable and robust, and capable of operating at high speeds. The machine is provided with a pre-stretch system, which can stretch the film by 300%. Partly because the foil is applied under constant tension and batched, relatively little film is needed for stabilisation of the load. The film rotates, rather than the pallet, so even unstable stacked pallets can be wrapped in foil.

The wrapper can start and stop wrapping at any height, so that stacked pallets can also be stabilised separately. The film welding and cutting system applies a double welded seam at a controlled temperature and welding time, eliminating loose bits of foil and making the pallets suitable for automated storage systems. The wrapper can automatically apply a cover sheet so the pallets can be made dustproof or waterproof, depending on the wrapping program.

The modular design simplifies repair or replacement of parts.
