Wireless Automation Package for Orbital Wrappers

The optional, wireless automation package for the TAB Wrapper Tornado line of orbital stretch-wrapping machines enables lift truck operators to automatically wrap palletized loads to their pallets as a single unit without leaving their seats. The package combines an automated cut and wrap device installed on the machinery with a companion, hand-held, wireless remote control used to start and stop the wrapping process at the press of a button from the safety of the lift truck cab interior. With the new technology, lift truck operators simply raise the palletized load on the forks, drive it within the orbital wrapping ring, press start on the wireless remote and then watch as the TAB Wrapper encases the entire load and pallet in 360 degrees of protective, plastic film in seconds. When complete, the lift truck operator simply releases the start button on the remote control to stop the machine. Then the operator may set the unitized load in a rack, in a staging area or on a trailer for immediate transport.
