Plastic Strapping Machine

Compare PLASTIC STRAPPING MACHINES. A plastic strapping machine uses plastic strapping of different width. Plastic strapping machines are used in many applications where quick and firm bundling of product is required. Polyester strapping and polypropylene strapping are the most common materials used.

The plastic strapping machines are offered in 3 modes of operation. Manual strapping machines (or table top or off line machines) and semi automatic strapping machines are used in many packing applications where a variety of packages and bundled material are strapped on the same machine. Automatic or in line plastic strapping machines are readily available often with no or minor modifications for a specific application.

In all cases, a plastic strap 5 to 10 mm wide is fed around the product, pulled tight by a friction drive motor, and the ends of the tape are held together while being heated and fused together.

The manual plastic strapping machine is a table top device where the package is placed on a surface over a slot. The end of the strap is pulled up and around the package. This end is then fed into a slot which grabs the strap and pulls it tight around the package.

The semi automatic and automatic plastic strapping machines are platforms with an arch over it. The package is placed inside the arch and either by push button or automatically the strap is wrapped around the package.
