Redesigned horizontal strapping system by Innova
Innova launches a redesigned horizontal strapping system to meet various industry needs
In response to market demands, Innova Group is unveiling a new automatic horizontal strapping system for pallets featuring a two-column structure. This model joins Innova’s horizontal strapping range as a functional and versatile solution, tailored to industries that require a less robust strapping system. The new model addresses the growing demand for a more compact and lightweight strapping system to secure loads that do not require additional compaction while maintaining the quality and precision that characterize Innova Group’s packaging systems.
The new two-column strapping system maximizes factory space and serves industries that require a simple, quick, and efficient solution for strapping light to medium loads.
HORIZONTAL STRAPPING: TWO MODELS FOR DIFFERENT APLICATIONS
The new strapping system becomes part of Innova’s Pro machinery line, maintaining technical features and performance comparable to other automatic pallet strapping systems. To better understand the advantages of the new two-column horizontal strapping system, it is essential to compare it with Innova’s original four-column model:
1- FOUR-COLUM HORIZONTAL STRAPPER
The standard model of Innova’s four-column horizontal strapping system features a robust structure designed for heavy loads and large volumes, such as ceramic products, bricks, and other construction materials. This model stands out for its four-pillar, anti-vibration structure, minimizing load movement during the strapping process to ensure greater precision and packaging safety.
Additionally, it features an integrated load compacting system that straps and stabilizes heavy loads without needing additional accessories. This compacting feature is essential for industries handling heavy products that require block compacting to prevent box shifting during transport and ensure more uniform strapping.
2- NEW TWO-COLUM MODEL
The new two-column horizontal strapping system is a lighter, more functional solution designed for industries requiring secure strapping without the robustness of the four-column model. Its two-column structure optimizes floor space and facilitates integration into production lines for industries such as food, where loads are typically lighter and more stable, or chemical, where packaging formats vary widely (e.g., boxes, drums, or jerrycans).
The absence of a load compactor supports businesses that value efficient and rapid packaging in a streamlined system, allowing for a customized automatic strapping solution with more straightforward operation. This model also adapts to different pallet heights and sizes, improving versatility compared to the four-column model in certain environments.
ADVANTAGES OF THE NEW HORIZONTAL STRAPPING SYSTEM
The new two-column horizontal strapping system provides many advantages for companies looking for a simple yet effective strapping solution:
- STRAPPING WITHOUT EXTRA COMPACTION: Designed for industries where load compaction is not required, this model provides secure strapping without the need for a compacting step, accommodating loads that only need to be fastened during transport.
- FOCUS ON LOAD STABILITY : This strapping machine is optimized for the primary function of securing loads, offering a simple and effective solution without adding costly or maintenance-intensive accessories.
- DIRECT PALLET LOADING AND UNLOADING: Unlike other models requiring adjacent conveyors, this system allows for direct loading and unloading on the strapping machine, streamlining the packaging process and minimizing production line adjustments.
- EDGE PROTECTOR APPLICATOR ACCESSORY: Although it is a simpler model, the two-column system can include an automatic edge protector applicator. These vertical edge protectors help stabilize the load into a single block, facilitating horizontal strapping while protecting the load and preventing shifting during transport.
TECHNICAL FEATURES OF THE NEW HORIZONTAL STRAPPING SYSTEM
The new two-column horizontal strapping system retains the performance and reliability of Innova’s technology, consistent with other systems in the same range.
