ARPAC STRETCH RTA
ARPAC STRETCH RTAC
The RTA-SERIES automatic rotary tower stretch wrapper combines automation and floor space optimization. Whether you need to stretch wrap unstable pallet loads that are either too light or too heavy to rotate on a turntable wrapper, wrap faster than a conventional turntable system, require the flexibility to load the wrap zone with either a fork truck or pallet jack, or wrap in a wash-down environment, this fully automatic entry-level overhead rotary arm pallet stretch wrapper is the solution.
The RTAC-SERIES automatic high speed stretch wrapper is ideal for fully automated production lines wrapping large, heavy or unstable loads. This stretch wrapper automatically indexes the load into and out of the wrap zone and discharges loads without operator assistance.
