Signode offers multiple models of ring stretch wrappers to meet the demands of pallet and case wrapping. Our leading Octopus brand is known for its durability and ease of use.
The Octopus features a rotating ring that can apply up to 1,000 pounds of tension to the stretch film. This securely wraps your pallets and cargo, protecting the contents from damage.
Why Choose a Stretch Wrapping Machine?
- Automate the process of wrapping pallets or large items with stretch film, saving time and labor compared to manual wrapping methods.
- Consistent wrapping tension and coverage, minimize risks of damage during transit or storage.
- Versatility of machines which can handle a variety of load sizes and shapes, making them suitable for diverse packaging needs across industries.
- Stretch film provides a secure barrier against dust, moisture, and tampering, safeguarding the integrity of the packaged goods, achieve these benefits via automation.
- Customization of wrapping to your needs with adjustable wrap patterns, film tension control, and pre-stretch options, allowing for tailored packaging solutions.
- Pallet wrapping via a Octopus Stretch Wrapping Machine will increase efficiency due to the ring technology; the pallet remains stationary, which makes the wrapping of unstable and lightweight products considerably easier. There are no centrifugal forces to cause stress or strain on the load or on the equipment. Since the sealing mechanism is on the ring, we can start and stop the wrapping cycle anywhere on the load.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
The Octopus pallet wrappers use a rotating ring to apply stretch film while the pallet remains stationary. This al-lows high‑speed wrapping, smooth operation, and consistent containment, even for lightweight or unstable loads. The ring design also supports continuous, uninterrupted film application for maximum efficiency.
Across all Octopus models, several core technologies and design principles work together to create stronger load containment with less stretch film. While each series offers different performance levels and options, they all share the same foundational advantages:
- All Octopus ring wrappers—B, S, T, C, and Prestige—use highly controlled film pre‑stretch and adjustable film tension to ensure the film is applied efficiently and uniformly around the load.
- Film carriage moves around the pallet, allowing consistent, uninterrupted wrapping.
- Reduces film overlap variability and ensures every wrap contributes to stability.
- Customized wrapping parameters for different product types and stability re-quirements.
- Precise control of layer count, tension zones, top/bottom reinforcements, and film feed rates.
Exclusive to the Octopus Prestige, this technology:
- Converts standard stretch film into a high-performance containment force solu-tion.
- Controls pre‑stretch and tension continuously throughout the wrap cycle, opti-mizing film usage while maintaining stability.
Ring wrapping technology offers smooth, motion‑controlled wrapping with fewer mechanical adjustments, reducing wear and downtime. Its robust ring rotation and hoist system supports reliable high‑speed performance, enabling consistent output even in demanding production lines.
