What is the difference between a rotary arm and a turntable wrapper?

On a turntable machine the pallet turns; on a rotary arm machine the pallet stays still and the reel-carrying arm turns around it. That makes the arm type the right choice for unstable, very light or very heavy loads that would shift when spun.

What kind of load suits a rotary arm wrapper?

Pallets of irregular product, tall stacks, loads that cannot take centrifugal force, and very heavy pallets that exceed the capacity of a turntable.

How much film is saved by automating wrapping?

The carriage pre-stretch and electronic tension control stretch the film before applying it, so the same pallet is covered with fewer metres of film and with a more even hold than by hand.

Can tension and the number of turns be adjusted?

Yes. You set the number of reinforcement turns at base and top, film tension and speed, and those parameters are stored as a program to repeat on every identical pallet.

Rotary Arm Wrapper - Fontanet Group

General Description

The automatic rotary arm wrapper is an industrial packaging machine designed for pallet wrapping with stretch film, ideal for companies that need to secure and protect palletized loads efficiently and consistently. This system guarantees optimal load stability during transport and storage, even in demanding logistics environments.

Thanks to its rotating arm, the wrapper wraps the pallet uniformly without the load needing to rotate, making it a perfect solution for unstable, heavy, or large-volume pallets. Additionally, it optimizes film consumption and significantly reduces wrapping times, improving productivity in production lines and logistics warehouses.

verified Advantages of Automatic Wrapping

Automatic wrapping with a rotating arm allows for uniform, safe, and controlled wrapping, reducing the risk of shifts or damage to goods during transport. This system also optimizes the use of stretch film, generating considerable savings in packaging material.

Additionally, it improves occupational safety, as it eliminates a large part of the manual work, reduces repetitive efforts, and increases the speed and efficiency of the order preparation process.
