How to wrap pallets with foil quickly and efficiently?
Even those outside the transport industry have seen goods on pallets wrapped in stretch film. This is a common sight around supermarkets, but also in smaller stores. As one can easily guess, the purpose of the stretch film is to protect the products from moisture and dirt. But how do large producers, who ship thousands of goods around the world every day, handle wrapping pallets with products? Let's find out!
Is it possible to manually wrap pallets?
Yes, companies that rarely ship goods on a pallet usually wrap the products by hand. There are even special manual wrappers that make this task easier. However, properly wrapping a pallet with goods is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it also distracts the employee from their core duties. Unfortunately, manual wrapping of pallets with film often proves to be ineffective. Improper tensioning of the film, using too much of it, or failing to secure its ends can result in goods falling off the pallet during transportation or being damaged in other ways. Employees also tend to use much more film than is actually necessary, which in turn translates to losses for the company.
Automation of the pallet wrapping process with foil
Professionals use automatic packaging machines. Wrapping pallets with their help does not require involving a worker in this task, and it literally takes just a moment. The machines are programmed to use the appropriate amount of film, effectively and efficiently securing the goods – there is no room for error here. Efficiently covering pallets with goods in film results in a lower number of customer complaints and increases the efficiency of the company.
