Vertical strapping

Automatic vertical strapping machine for stable pallet loads

Vertical strapping system for palletized loads requiring firm unitization, superior stability and through-pallet strapping.

The machine uses a lower lance, transverse head and optional pallet rotation to apply vertical straps precisely in automatic lines.

Vertical strapping process

Vertical strapping through the pallet

The vertical strapper inserts the strap through the pallet with a lower lance and guides it around the load to create a stable unit. It is key when the product must remain firmly attached to the base during handling, storage and transport.

How the machine works

  • 1The pallet enters the automatic strapping area.
  • 2The lower lance passes through the pallet.
  • 3The strap is guided around the load and the head is positioned.
  • 4The strap is tensioned, welded and cut automatically.
  • 5Optional pallet rotation allows strapping in several orientations.

Vertical strapping advantages

Main advantages of the vertical strapper

Load-to-pallet retention

Through-pallet strapping helps secure the load to the base.

Balanced forces

The transverse head controls tension during the strapping cycle.

Four-side option

A rotary conveyor can apply strapping in different orientations.

Automatic throughput

Designed for repeatable cycles with minimal operator intervention.

Custom configuration

Heights, sizes, strap type and peripherals can be adapted to each project.

  • • Products requiring strapping in two directions or on four sides.
  • • Automatic installations where pallet stability is a priority.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about vertical strapping

What is the difference between vertical and horizontal strapping?

Vertical strapping secures the load to the pallet through the base, while horizontal strapping compacts the load laterally around its perimeter.

Can it strap in several orientations?

Yes. It can be combined with a rotary conveyor to turn the pallet and strap in several orientations.

Can it be integrated into an existing automatic line?

Yes. It can be integrated with conveyors, palletizers, wrappers, hooders, weighing, labeling and other end-of-line modules.
