    Strapping machines – indispensable aids for safe transport and storage



    Strapping machines are essential tools for many industries that depend on being able to transport and store products safely and efficiently. These machines ensure that pallets, cardboard boxes and other packs are strapped firmly and securely, and thereby prevent any damage during transport and storage.



    Why strapping machines?


    The main function of strapping machines is to secure goods using strapping. This prevents products from slipping or being damaged during transport. Automating the strapping process allows companies to save time and money by reducing the work involved and increasing efficiency.



    Different types of strapping machines



    There are different types of strapping machines that can be selected to suit the specific requirements and area of application:



    • Semi-automatic strapping machines: these machines require manual operation, during which the user places the strapping around the package and starts the strapping process. They are ideal for cardboard box formats that remain the same.

    • Fully automatic strapping machines: fully automatic models complete the entire strapping process on their own. They are particularly suitable when there are large volumes of goods to pack, when cardboard box formats change frequently and for production lines, as they can be seamlessly integrated into existing conveyor systems. These machines offer a high level of efficiency and significantly reduce the amount of manual work involved.

    • Mobile strapping machines: rechargeable, battery powered strapping tools are ideal for versatile and efficient use to strap goods with PP or PET strapping. They are easy to hold, are suitable for mobile use on packaged goods and enable both horizontal and vertical tensioning and sealing. Perfect for industry and retail.


    Benefits of using strapping machines



    • Efficiency: strapping machines speed up the packaging process considerably and enable a greater number of strapping processes to be completed in a shorter period of time.

    • Consistent quality: by precisely controlling the strap tension and position, these machines ensure consistent and secure strapping that guarantees product stability.

    • Safety: properly strapped packages are less susceptible to transport damage, which increases the safety of the goods.

    • Ergonomics: rechargeable, battery powered hand held tools provide a reliable and ergonomic solution for sealing packages in environments in which machines are difficult to use.


    Frequently asked questions



    What is a strapping machine?


    A strapping machine is a tool that is used to secure goods by means of strapping. These machines ensure that parcels, pallets and other packs are bundled so they are stable and secure for transport.



    What types of strapping machines are available?


    There are different types of strapping machines, including semi-automatic ones, fully automatic ones, and mobile strapping machines. Each type is suitable for specific applications and requirements, from small parcels to large pallets.



    How does a strapping machine function?


    A strapping machine functions by placing strapping around the goods that have been packed, tensioning the strap and then heat sealing or securing it to ensure the strapping is taut and secure. This is done either manually or automatically, depending on the type of machine.



    How does a fully automatic strapping machine function?


    A fully automatic strapping machine automatically guides the strapping around the goods that have been packaged, tensions it and secures it by means of heat sealing or another method. These machines are particularly efficient and are suitable for high strapping volumes in industrial applications.



    For which applications are the different strapping materials suitable?


    • PP straps: suitable for general logistics, the printing industry, corrugated cardboard, lightweight building materials and the food industry.

    • PET straps: ideal for heavy loads, especially in the construction and timber industries, as well as for industrial packaging.

    • Steel straps: best suited for very heavy and bulky goods that require an extremely high tensioning force, such as machines and large metal components.

    • Environmentally friendly straps: ideal for companies looking for sustainable packaging solutions.


    What are the environmentally friendly alternatives to traditional strapping?


    In addition to conventional plastic and steel straps, there are more and more environmentally friendly alternatives, such as strapping made from paper or recycled plastic. These alternatives offer a sustainable solution and help to reduce the ecological footprint.
