Semi Automatic Shrink Wrapping Machine

A semi-automatic shrink wrapper completes some elements of the wrapping cycle but still requires operator interaction. The operator usually lays loads on the wrapper and begins the wrapping process. The wrapper then takes over, wrapping the package. Another operator will take out the newly wrapped item from the machine. These semi-automatic shrink wrap machines perform effectively at lower throughput rates. Semi-automatic shrink wrap machines can produce as many as 5-8 packs per minute, depending on the product and operator.

In general, a semi-automatic shrink wrapper provides a safe approach to unitize loads and meet your partners’ shipping needs. Other advantages of semi-automatic shrink wrapping devices include:

• Affordability: A semi-automatic shrink wrapper is typically much more affordable than an automatic machine. It can be a better entry-level solution or a good choice if you need multiple machines on a budget.
• Flexibility: You can often use a semi-auto shrink wrap machine in many ways. You might mount it on casters to move it around to different parts of the floor or the packaging line or reconfigure it for a new product. If you package multiple types of products and change your packaging line often, a semi auto shrink wrapper can add flexibility to your operation.
• Ease of maintenance: Automatic machines are more complex. Semi-automatic equipment can be easier to maintain and troubleshoot.
• Easy integration: Semi-automatic shrink wrappers are very versatile and can be integrated into your existing production lines easily.
