Pallet Stretch-Wrap Station
Turntable plus film carriage wraps every pallet the same way.

Hand-wrapping a pallet uses 30–50% more film than a machine, isn't uniform top-to-bottom, and wears out warehouse staff. A stretch-wrap station applies a programmed wrap pattern with pre-stretch (so one roll covers more pallets) and a consistent tension that survives the truck ride.
Step by step
- 01
Forklift sets the pallet on the turntable.
- 02
Operator presses START — the turntable begins to rotate.
- 03
The film carriage starts at the bottom, rises during rotation, dwells for a top wrap, and descends.
- 04
Pre-stretch rollers (geared 200–300%) stretch the film as it dispenses — uses much less film than no-stretch machines.
- 05
Programmable patterns set top wraps, bottom wraps, and reinforcement bands.
- 06
Cycle ends; operator cuts the tail and forklifts the pallet off.
What's in the cell
- Powered turntable (1500 – 2000 mm diameter, 2000 kg capacity)
- Powered film carriage on a vertical mast
- Pre-stretch film unit (geared rollers)
- Photo-eye for auto pallet height detection
- Control panel with selectable recipes
- Optional weighing turntable (combine wrap + weigh)
Where it fits
- Finished-goods warehouse dispatch
- Export pallet prep (long sea routes, extra reinforcement)
- Cold chain (extended wrap for freezer transit)
- Bagged goods (cement, fertiliser, animal feed)
- Cased beverage and food pallets
- Industrial parts on returnable pallets
Sized to your line
These ranges cover most installations — exact spec depends on your product, throughput target, and integration constraints. We confirm everything before quoting.
Plug-and-play — site needs a flat slab and a single-phase outlet. We dial in pre-stretch and pattern to match your load type and transport profile.
