Standard stretch hood machine added to range
Qimarox has added a standard stretch hood machine to its range of material handling components.
The machine distinguishes itself by its lack of power-hungry technologies such as pneumatics and hydraulics, says the firm. This packaging machine can also be integrated with the palletising module of Qimarox in a complete final packaging system.
The Qimarox Highrunner mk7 is a modular palletising module which can swiftly stack final packages of various shapes and sizes on pallets. With this stretch hood machine, system partners of Qimarox can now supply complete systems for both palletising and packaging of pallets. End customers are therefore assured of a pallet with load that is secured and stabilised, and also packaged both waterproof and dustproof.
The compact stretch hood machine has four tensioning arms that can stretch a stretch wrap taut and pull it over the loaded pallet. When the tensioning arms release the stretch hood, the boxes, bags or other products on the pallet can no longer move due to the elasticity of the film. Because the four tensioning arms can move horizontally in two directions, the stretch wrapper can wrap any size of pallet.
