Stretch Wrappers: Automatic & Semi-Auto Pallet Wrappers

Pricing varies based on automation level, load capacity, and features, ranging from semi-automatic turntable units to fully automatic robotic systems. Busch Machinery provides free quotes and consultation tailored to your production volume, load type, and budget, with custom and volume pricing available upon request by phone or email.

Stretch wrap secures palletized loads by binding products together, preventing shifting, damage, and product loss during handling, storage, and transportation. It also protects against dust and moisture. Pre-stretch film delivery systems, capable of up to 300% stretch, reduce film usage while maintaining strong load containment force.

Semi-automatic wrappers, like the X1 model, require an operator to attach and cut film manually while the turntable rotates the load. Fully automatic systems handle film cutting, clamping, and load detection via PLC controls and photoelectric sensors, enabling hands-free operation ideal for high-volume production lines processing 30-35 pallets per hour or more.

Busch Machinery's stretch wrappers feature pre-stretch delivery systems reaching up to 300%, meaning the film stretches up to three times its original length before wrapping. This significantly reduces the amount of film needed per load, lowering packaging material costs while still maintaining strong load stability and containment force.

Load capacities vary by model; the semi-automatic X1 handles up to 4,000 lbs, while rotary arm systems support up to 3,000 kg or unlimited weight since the pallet remains stationary during wrapping. This makes rotary arm designs suitable for unstable, tall, light, or heavy loads that shouldn't be rotated.

Yes, Busch Machinery's stretch wrapping machines are CE certified, meeting European safety standards. Machines incorporate safety features such as interlock protections, radar-based obstacle detection on robotic models, emergency stop systems, and soft start/stop functionality to ensure safe operation across industrial environments.
