Semi-automatic strapping machine
Strapping equipment specialist Mosca Direct is targeting customers requiring a lower-entry level machine with the launch of its MO-M-8 semi-automatic strapping system.
The attractively priced machine will allow users to strap small amounts when needed without sacrificing on quality and performance.
In keeping with Mosca’s modular construction concept, many core components of the robust MO-M-8 including the machine frame, strap dispenser and sealing unit are constructed in the same way as the company’s popular RO-M Fusion. However the semi-automatic MO-M-8 dispenses with the strap guide frame, with the strap wrapped around the package manually – making it easy to use for customers who need to strap a low number of packs while maintaining efficiency and reliability.
Strap return, tension adjustment and the welding of the strap ends are conducted automatically after the strap is placed in the sealing unit to begin the strapping process. An optional table stop for the accurate positioning of individual packages is also available.
Mosca Direct MD Gaye Tate said: “Many users are already familiar with the models in the RO-M series as reliable entry-level machines but with this development we are addressing the demand from customers who do not need to strap items often, but rely on high availability when they do.”
