02.06.2014 Compact stretch-hooder is safer and more efficient

Beumer, Beckum, Germany, has introduced its latest stretch-hooder, the BEUMER stretch hood A, which features improved system performance and occupies far less floor space. Maintenance work, such as changing the blades or the sealing bars, can be carried out at floor level. The machine is automatically brought to a standstill to protect the operator and thanks to the rapid access capability, maintenance work is accelerated, and the risk of accidents and malfunctions minimised.

An innovative film transport system feeds the previously created film hood into the system. On its way to the crimping and stretching unit, the sealing seam on the film hood cools down so that it can be crimped without losing time. This removes the need for an energy-intensive cooling unit and time-consuming cooling. The pallets can be packed in a shorter cycle time, while at the same time ensuring improved packaging performance and less energy consumption. A soft-touch panel uses pictograms to guide the user through the machine control menus. The panel also gives the operator access to all required training programs. Compressed air requirements have been significantly reduced compared with previous models. www.beumergroup.com
