ARPAC Stretch Wrapper Machine Demonstration

Pyramid Packaging is a Chicagoland reseller of the ARPAC Stretch Wrapper Machine.

If you are shipping more than 5 skids per day, a semi-automatic turn table wrapper may be your best option. With the turn table stretch wrapper, pallets are placed on the turn table. The stretch wrap is attached to the pallet and the wrap is automatically applied as the skid rotates on the turn table.

This semi-automatic wrapping process improves productivity, and produces a tighter and more consistent wrap. It has many features including full powered pre-stretch, bringing greater productivity at an economical price.

The value you will get if you wrap multiple skids per day will be noticed very quickly. This machine is powerful, effective and also easy to use.

Flexible Packaging Supplies & Equipment Presentation

Check out our new SlideShare packaging presentation. The presentation explains the different types of flexible packaging equipment, supplies and services that are available from Pyramid Packaging Inc.

Flexible packaging supplies typically include polyethylene bags, on-demand bubble wrap, shrink wrap, stretch film, skin board, in addition to void fill air pillows.

Flexible packaging is used to protect products in inventory or during transportation. As the name applies, it is a non-rigid material usually made from a plastic polymer.

Materials include polyethylene, polypropylene, polyester, and polyolefin. These packaging materials conform to the shape that it’s being packaged in. Therefore, this is unlike corrugated packaging, where items are packed into cardboard box and it’s far more rigid.

Interestingly, these materials are used to package products in the pharmaceutical, food, industrial, logistic and distribution centers.

Most often, equipment like a semi-automatic shrink wrapper, bagging or void fill machinery are used along with flexible packaging materials in order to reduce labor cost and improve packaging efficiency. Corporate or products logos and graphics can also be branded on these materials which can help your brand reach new heights.

Why Stretch Wrap Your Products Presentation

Stretch wrap is a great material to use for packaging skids.

This presentation goes over its advantages and commonly asked stretch wrapping questions.

Shrink wrap is applied over or around package products. Depending on the application, the film may or may not entirely cover the packaged item. As a result, shrink film is used to stabilize items or group products.

It’s used to package gift baskets, dry goods, frozen foods, toys, literature, and soaps.  For heavy duty bundling it’s used for beverages such as bottled water.

Shrink film keeps products free of debris, and provides a tamper-resistance barrier. Sometimes, it’s even the primary covering for foods such as meats, and vegetables.

For high volume packaging, shrink wrapping machine are used to automate this process. When heat is applied to the shrink film via a shrink tunnel, the film shrinks and tightly conforms to the shape that it’s covering. Shrink wrappers will also wrap, cut and seal the shrink film automatically.

Polyolefin is the most popular type shrink wrap film but PVC, polyethylene and polypropylene films are also used for shrink wrapping. Shrink films come in rolls and bags and in a variety of thicknesses, colors, and strengths.
