Safety wrapped up

When health and safety issues forced
Key, a family member of the Manutan
Group, to look for an alternative way
of wrapping pallets, Atlanta
Packaging delivered the solution in
the form of a Sfera mobile stretch
wrapping machine. As a result,
manual wrapping has been
reduced by 40-50%.
Previously, Key used an
automated stretch
wrapper with pallets
being driven on to a turntable which,
it says, caused injuries to feet and legs
from product overhang on the pallets.
The Sfera is a battery powered, selfguiding
mobile pallet stretch wrapper.
Because the load stays on the floor,
the wrapper is suitable for
unstable, heavy or oversize
loads. It can be stored out of
the way when not in use,
freeing warehouse space.
The use of powered rollers
to pre-stretch the film
greatly increases the yield
from a roll, saving up to 50%
over hand wrapping.
