If you’re wrapping pallets with a non-pre-stretch unit, you’re literally throwing money away on film—the standard wrap consumes twice the matrial per load. Get a turntable on-site, drop a 2000kg load on it, and this runs at 30 to 40 cycles an hour with a 300% pre-stretch that pulls the film tight without necking. We’ve tuned frame height to handle up to 2400mm as standard, but if your loads are taller or shorter, 1800mm to 3200mm is available—just specify when ordering (lead time’s roughly 2 weeks for non-standard builds). Basically, it is wrapped tight enough to survive cross-country freight without rework.

That’s the thing—most buyers coming from manual wrapping or older machines don’t realize how much they can push the Siemens PLC on this. The control system is what lets you program the overlap, tension cycles, and rotation pattern per load type, so a pallet of beverage cans gets a different wrap than a stack of chemicla drums. SICK sensors from Germany handle the film break and load height detection, and we’ve wired the safety interlock so it stops fast if someone steps into the ring—no bypass needed. A concrete detail you wouldn’t guess: the turntable is actually three-piece bolted steel with a machined rim, not stamped, so you can drag a fork pocket across it without warping.

Now, about the numbers—it pulls 1.5kW on 220-240V single-phase as stock, and our company can switch to 110V if your facility runs that. The machine itself weighs 750kg, dimnesions are 2800 by 1650, and height on the standard column is 2745mm. Film width accepts 500mm reels, but for wider loads you can order teh 750mm option—that cuts cycles by about 15% since you’re overlapping less. We don’t push the turntable diameter smaller than 1650mm; anything less and 2000kg loads with overhang start wobbling at speed, and there’s no safety override for that.
Use cases are pretty broad, but actually the sweet spot is production lines pushing hot-melt cases or bagged goods that need containment uniformity—think food palletizing or bagged resin. It is not well-suited for odd geometries like long steel extrusions or tall pipe bundles unless you add the optional vertical wrap attachment, which we don’t stock by default. For standard box-stack or direct-loaded pallets, though, the 30-40/hour throughput is real even with mixed heights, since the SICK sensor triggers an auto-correct if the film path shifts.

Here’s why you’d buy from us rather than a distributor: we set the PLC ladder logic in-house, so if your operator needs a custom alarm pattern—say a flashing beacon when film tension drops below 80%—we’ve coded that for other clients and it’s usually a firmware tweak, not a mechanical change. means the 2000kg load rating isn’t inflated—same Siemens inverter and motor we ship, and we’ll provide a COA with raw tensile and frictional data for the pre-stretch calibration. CE certified as standard, and the 1.5kW means it’s runnable on a standard wall circuit in most industrial zones anyway.
We can start with a single unit for most standard configurations, but custom colors or special options might require a minimum of 5 units. Just let us know what you need.
For a standard X100 model, lead time is typically 15-20 working days. Custom options like a larger turntable or 110V voltage might add a few extra days.
Yes, the X100 comes with full CE certification, and we'll include the compliance documents in the shipment. Third-party test reports are available on request.
Sure, the X100 supports 750mm film as an option, and the pre-stretch rate stays at 300% regardless of film width. Just specify it when ordering.
The machine is securely packed in a plywood crate with foam padding. Store it indoors in a dry area between -10°C and 50°C to keep the Siemens and SICK components in top shape.
