Automatic Pallet Stretch Wrapping Machine Manufacturer in India

A complete, experience-based industrial guide for buyers, plant managers, and packaging engineers..
India has emerged as a strong manufacturing base for automatic pallet stretch wrapping machines, supplying reliable systems for domestic factories and global exports. Below is a step-by-step, shop-floor-practical guide that explains the technology, selection logic, and real operational value—written the way packaging engineers and operations teams actually think.

1. What is an Automatic Pallet Stretch Wrapping Machine?

An automatic pallet stretch wrapping machine is an industrial packaging system designed to secure palletized goods using stretch film without manual intervention.
The machine automatically wraps loads to ensure stability, protection, and transport safety during storage and logistics.

In India, manufacturers design these machines to suit:

• Variable pallet sizes

• Dusty factory environments

• Power fluctuations

• Cost-sensitive but performance-driven operations

2. How the Machine Works – Technical & Operational Flow

Step-by-Step Working Principle

1. Pallet Positioning

   • Pallet arrives via forklift or conveyor.

   • Sensors confirm pallet presence and dimensions.

2. Film Attachment

   • Automatic film clamp grips the stretch film tail.

   • No manual tying required.

3. Pre-Stretch Activation

   • Film is mechanically or motor-driven pre-stretched (150–300%).

   • Reduces film consumption while increasing load tension.

4. Wrapping Cycle

   • Turntable rotates or wrapping arm rotates around stationary pallet.

   • Film carriage moves up & down to cover full pallet height.

   • Separate bottom, body, and top wraps can be programmed.

5. Top Wrapping / Rope Wrapping (Optional)

   • Extra reinforcement for unstable or tall loads.

6. Film Cut & Clamp

   • Film is automatically cut and held ready for next pallet.

7. Pallet Exit

   • Wrapped pallet exits to conveyor or forklift zone.

✔ Entire cycle typically completes in 60–120 seconds, depending on wrap program.

3. Why Automatic Pallet Wrapping is Critical in Modern Industry

Problems with Manual / Semi-Manual Wrapping

• Inconsistent load stability

• High film wastage

• Operator fatigue and injury risk

• Low throughput
