The ARPAC Sidewinder is part of a robust line of stretch wrapping equipment designed to maximize stretch film usage while ensuring the very best load unitization. All equipment is constructed with heavy gauge reinforced structural steel and finished with non-corrosive Steel-It paint, guaranteeing years of reliable wrapping.
The ARPAC Sidewinder is a heavy-duty semi-automatic stretch wrapper with 4,000 lb. capacity. This model is available with a high-profile turntable for forklift loading and a low-profile turntable for pallet-jack loading.
The Sidewinder can be customized with extended towers for taller loads and split frames for odd-sized larger loads. This system is also available with a 30″ film carriage and dual turntables for greater throughput, cold and freezer packs for reliable operation in extremely harsh temperatures, and a pneumatic roping device for additional load support. For more efficiency, an Automatic Film Tear Device (AFTD) tears the film automatically at the end of the wrapping cycle.
The Sidewinder is manufactured in the USA.
