Automatic strapping
Gordian Strapping has announced the launch of two new RQ-8 automatic strapping machines by its parent company, Strapack.

The RQ-8x and RQ8000 represent the evolution of one of StraPack’s most popular and longest selling models, the RQ-8 and retain the same reliability, intuitive operation and ease of maintenance.
Ready to operate in less than 25 seconds, the machine can be programmed to enter standby mode from 15sec to 5min after the last strap cycle, thereby saving energy.
The RQ-8x and RQ8000 offer strapping speeds of up to 55 and 64 straps/min respectively, even with tension applied. The RQ8000 features as standard an integrated foot bar, for faster, two-handed operation, adjustable table height (820- 940mm from floor level) and a cycle counter to help plan the machine service schedule. Both machines feature direct drive tension motors for quiet operation and reliability.
