WCRT 200 RT Wrapper

A fully automatic rotary arm stretch wrapping system designed for high-speed pallet load containment in conveyorized packaging environments.

The machine utilizes a rotating arm wrapping design that keeps the pallet load stationary during operation, improving wrapping stability for heavy, lightweight, or unstable loads while maximizing throughput and wrapping consistency. Ideal for facilities requiring reliable automated pallet wrapping with continuous conveyor flow and high production capacity.

This automatic rotary arm stretch wrapper is engineered to wrap palletized loads using a rotating arm system where the film carriage rotates around a stationary pallet load. By eliminating pallet rotation during the wrapping cycle, the system improves load stability and allows consistent wrapping performance for heavy, tall, or unstable pallet loads.

Designed for demanding automated packaging operations, the machine combines powered pre-stretch film technology, advanced Allen-Bradley controls, automated film tail treatment, and integrated conveyor handling to provide high-speed wrapping performance with minimal operator intervention. Its heavy-duty structural steel construction and industrial-grade rotary arm design support continuous-duty operation and long-term reliability.

  • Advanced operator safety monitoring system with multiple photoeyes
  • Safety fencing with electronically interlocked access door
  • Optional top platen, roping, washdown, and cold temperature packages available
  • Designed for continuous high-speed industrial operation

The system utilizes a counterbalanced rotary wrapping arm that rotates around the stationary pallet load while a powered film carriage travels vertically to apply stretch film throughout the wrap cycle. Because the load remains fixed in position, the machine can handle unstable or heavy pallet loads more effectively than traditional turntable wrapping systems.

Its NO-THREAD® powered pre-stretch carriage significantly reduces film consumption by stretching film prior to application while maintaining proper containment force on the load. Electronic film tension controls automatically adjust film force according to load profile and wrapping requirements, improving wrapping consistency and reducing film breakage.

The machine incorporates automated film clamping, cutting, and tail treatment systems that eliminate loose film tails and improve final pallet appearance. Integrated diagnostics, remote connectivity, soft-start rotary arm control, independent conveyor controls, and multiple safety monitoring devices further improve operational efficiency and simplify maintenance.

Heavy-duty conveyor integration, rotary arm dynamic braking, automated lubrication systems, and reinforced steel boom construction provide smooth high-speed operation while minimizing maintenance requirements and extending equipment life.
