Technical Insights: Automatic PET Strapping Machine

The Modern Standard in Strapping

Automatic PET Strapping Machines have largely replaced steel strapping systems in many industries. They utilize a friction-weld sealing head to bond the strap ends, eliminating the need for metal seals. PET strap has 'elastic memory,' meaning it stays tight even if the load settles or shrinks, whereas steel strap would become loose.

Advantages Over Steel

  • Safety: No sharp edges to cut operators when removing the strap.
  • Cost: PET strap is significantly cheaper per foot than steel strap.
  • Durability: PET does not rust and won't stain your product.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q

How strong is the joint?

Friction welds typically achieve 75-85% of the strap's breaking strength. For a high-quality 19mm PET strap, this can exceed 800kg of holding force per strap.
Q

Can it handle heavy brick or lumber pallets?

Absolutely. Heavy-duty PET heads can pull up to 7,000N (approx. 1,500 lbs) of tension, making them more than capable for construction materials.
