Qimarox Highrunner mk7 stretch hood machine

Tuesday, 29 November, 2016 | Supplied by: Qimarox


Qimarox has added a standard stretch hood machine to its range of material handling components. The Qimarox Highrunner mk7 is a modular, serially produced palletising module which can swiftly stack final packages of various shapes and sizes on pallets.

The compact stretch hood machine has four tensioning arms that can stretch a stretch wrap taut and pull it over the loaded pallet. When the tensioning arms release the stretch hood, the boxes, bags or other products on the pallet can no longer move due to the elasticity of the film. Because the four tensioning arms can move horizontally in two directions, the stretch wrapper can wrap any size of pallet.

What makes the machine different is its lack of power-hungry technologies such as pneumatics and hydraulics to power the tensioning arms. Energy consumption is therefore minimised, allowing users to save on energy costs. In addition, the machine is easy to maintain. Inspection of the machine or replacement of wearing parts can take place at ground level, so moving machine parts are not required for service and maintenance work.

The stretch hood machine is supplied to system partners without a control system, offering the opportunity to combine the control system of the machine with that of the other end-of-line packaging system components. This provides better integration, as well as simpler control and lower investment and maintenance costs.
