Ring Stretch Wrappers for Optimized Packaging and Palletizing

Ring Stretch Wrapper

Ring Stretch Wrapper: the ideal solution to wrapping all six sides of a square load so that exposure to the elements will not damage products.

In today's fast-paced production environments, efficient and secure packaging is crucial. Kaufman Engineered Systems' ring stretch wrappers are designed and built to address even the most demanding packaging and palletizing challenges, providing enhanced product stability and protection. Whether dealing with fragile items, irregularly shaped products, or high throughput demands, ring stretch wrappers streamline operations while ensuring packages arrive safely to their destinations.

A ring stretch wrapper is an advanced type of stretch-wrapping machine used primarily in automated packaging and palletizing systems. Unlike traditional rotary arm or turntable wrappers, a ring stretch wrapper features a circular ring structure that rotates around the load, wrapping it with stretch film in a continuous, uninterrupted motion. This design allows for faster wrapping speeds, even film distribution, and minimal product movement during the wrapping process, making it ideal for stabilizing loads in high-speed production environments.

The ring rotates around the load as the product remains stationary, allowing for a highly efficient wrapping process. Because the ring stretch wrapper can perform 360-degree wraps quickly and consistently, it’s often used for securing loads that require a high level of stability, such as tall, unstable, or delicate pallets. This type of wrapper is commonly used in industries with high throughput demands and is especially beneficial for facilities handling diverse load shapes and sizes.

Packaging and Palletizing Challenges Solved by Ring Stretch Wrappers

Traditional stretch wrappers can struggle with high-speed packaging lines, tall or unstable loads, and products requiring consistent wrapping tension. Kaufman's ring stretch wrappers meet these challenges head-on:

  • Unstable or Delicate Loads: Ring stretch wrappers provide a consistent tension and control along with an adjustable wrap pattern, ideal for delicate products that need protection without excessive force. The ring design offers balanced support around the product, minimizing shifting or potential damage during transport.
  • High-Speed Production Lines: Designed to keep up with demanding production environments, ring stretch wrappers reduce downtime and increase throughput with their continuous, uninterrupted wrapping capabilities.
  • Varied Product Shapes and Sizes: Unlike standard pallet wrappers, ring stretch wrappers accommodate a wide range of product dimensions, providing versatility for operations managing varied load sizes
