Packaging line for the steel industry – SHJLPACK – automatic

## Key Features

* **Application:** Primarily designed for the steel industry, specifically demonstrated for packaging aluminum ingots.
* **Automation:** Fully automatic operation.
* **Packaging Method:** Combines strapping and wrapping.
* **Strapping Materials:** Supports both PET and steel strapping bands.
* **Application:** Ideal for palletless packing of ingots.
* **Protection:** Provides waterproof, wetproof, and dustproof packaging.

### System Components

The packaging line integrates several key machines to achieve automated and protected packaging:

#### 1. Vertical Strapping Machine

* **Functionality:** Applies strapping bands vertically around the product (e.g., aluminum ingots).
* **Movement:** Equipped with sophisticated lifting and translating systems that work concurrently.
* **Precision:** These systems allow the strapping head to precisely reach any desired position on the package.
* **Strapping Heads:** Features two independent strapping heads.
* **Material Flexibility:** Capable of applying either a PET strapping band or a steel strapping band, offering versatility based on packaging requirements.

#### 2. Wrapping Machine

* **Type:** Utilizes a rotating ring design.
* **Functionality:** Wraps the package securely with film.
* **Protection Layer:** Includes a top sheet dispenser.
* **Purpose:** The wrapping and top sheet application are crucial for providing a protective layer that ensures the package is waterproof, wetproof, and dustproof, safeguarding the contents during transit and storage.

### Packaging Process

The integrated system operates sequentially:

1. The product (e.g., aluminum ingots) is positioned within the line.
2. The vertical strapping machine, using its lifting and translating systems, applies the required number of PET or steel straps at specific positions.
3. The wrapping machine with its rotating ring then wraps the strapped package with film.
4. A top sheet is dispensed and applied, completing the protective enclosure.

This combined process results in a securely strapped and fully protected package, suitable for storage and transport in various environments.
