Shrink Wrap Film Lifter from Packline

Meet their customers’ requirements to lift, transport and load rolls of shrink wrap film onto a Muller Octopus stretch wrapper.

Packline designed a special attachment to fit onto their popular range of Compac stainless steel lifting machines.

The rolls of shrink wrap film needed to be positioned onto the shrink wrappers film carriage situated approximate 500mm from the access point and once at loading position the rolls of film needed to be tilted to locate on the carriage mandrel.

The lifting attachment was designed with an extended arm to allow for the reach required, the clamping head arrangement and forward tipping mechanism ensured the reels of shrink wrap film could be easily manipulated and positioned onto the shrink wrappers film carriage mandrel.

Chris Baker, Packline’s Managing Director, said “ This is another example of the company’s ability to provide custom handling solutions” he went onto say “ It is one of our strengths the ability  to work closely with customers and provide lifting and handling solution  specific to their requirements” he added “Not only do we develop and manufacture the equipment but we also provide comprehensive documentation and technical support to back it up”

As well as offering the bespoke design service Packline’s standard range of lifting equipment provides off the shelf handling solutions for wide range of product such as Reels, Drums, Boxes etc.
