Executive summary Our online pallet wrapping machine wraps big panel stacks inside the conveyor line, so no forklift is needed between production and the wrapper. The load rolls onto a conveyor turntable, a pneumatic top plate holds it down, and the film carriage spirals stretch film up and down the stack. For big loads the turning circle, the top hold and the film per load matter most. A worked example sizes all three for a 2,000 × 1,200 mm stack.

Why big loads need an inline wrapper
Big panel stacks are awkward to move. Each forklift trip from the production line to a stand-alone wrapper and back adds handling time and a chance to knock a corner. Wrapping them by hand on a large footprint is slow, and the tension changes from one side to the other.
Our online wrapper sits in the conveyor line itself. The infeed conveyor, the turntable and the outfeed conveyor are at one height, so the load rolls through without lifting. A forklift only places the stack at the start and takes it away wrapped at the end.
How the online wrapping cycle runs
- Zuführung. The loaded pallet rides the infeed conveyor onto the conveyor turntable. A double-chain drive moves it into the wrapping position.
- Halt. The pneumatic top plate comes down on the stack. It keeps light or loose panels from shifting as the turntable starts.
- Wickeln. The turntable turns while the film carriage travels up and down the column. A sensor measures the load height, so the carriage turns back at the top of each stack.
- Schnitt. The optional pneumatic film grab and cut system clamps and cuts the film tail, ready for the next load.
- Abfluss. The top plate lifts, and the wrapped load rolls onto the outfeed conveyor.
Wrapping layers and zones are set on the OMRON PLC, so the bottom and top of the stack can take extra turns.
Turning circle: fitting a big load on the turntable
A turntable wrapper turns the whole load, so the corners sweep a circle. Its diameter is the diagonal of the footprint. That circle, not the pallet length, sets the clearance to the column and fencing.
We build the B200 with an 1,800 mm or 2,000 mm turntable. A load can overhang the turntable as long as it sits stably on the conveyor rollers. The corners then pass closer to the column, so we confirm the clearance on the layout drawing for each load range.

Worked example: a 2,000 × 1,200 mm panel stack
Take a stack of panels 2,000 mm long, 1,200 mm wide and 1,500 mm high, weighing 1,600 kg. These are illustrative customer figures.
Gewicht. 1,600 kg is inside the standard 2,000 kg turntable capacity.
Turning circle. The diagonal is √(2,000² + 1,200²) = 2,332 mm. On a 2,000 mm turntable, the corners reach (2,332 − 2,000) ÷ 2 = 166 mm beyond its edge. The column clearance must allow for that circle.
Wendet sich. With 500 mm film and 50% overlap, each turn climbs 250 mm. The stack needs 1,500 ÷ 250 = 6 turns up and 6 down. With 2 extra turns at the bottom and 2 at the top, that is 16 turns.
Feierabend. At the top speed of 12 r/min, 16 turns take 16 ÷ 12 = 1.33 min, or 80 s. At 6 r/min they take 160 s. To climb 250 mm per turn at 12 r/min, the carriage must travel 250 × 12 = 3,000 mm/min.
Ladungen pro Stunde. Wrapping alone caps output at 3,600 ÷ 80 = 45 loads an hour. The real figure is 3,600 ÷ (80 + t), where t is the conveyor transfer, press and cut time of your line.
Film. Each turn covers a perimeter of 2 × (2,000 + 1,200) = 6,400 mm. So 16 turns lay about 102 m of film on the stack. At 200% pre-stretch, each metre off the roll stretches to 3 m, so about 102 ÷ 3 = 34 m leaves the roll.

Sicherheit und EN 415-6
We design the online wrapper to EN 415-6 for pallet wrapping machines and assess risks to ISO 12100. The turning load, the film carriage, the top plate and the conveyor nip points are the main hazards. The turning circle of the largest load sets where the guarding goes. We fit fencing or light curtains around the turntable and the conveyor ends to suit your layout.
Häufig gestellte Fragen zur Technik
Q: Why use a top plate on big loads? A: Light top panels can lift or slide as the turntable starts. The pneumatic top plate holds them in place until the film does.
Q: Can the load be longer than the turntable? A: Yes, if it sits stably on the conveyor. We check the turning circle against the column on the layout drawing.
Q: What sets the cycle time? A: Turntable speed, the number of turns and the transfer time of your line. The worked example shows how to add them up.
F: Welche Sicherheitsstandards gelten? A: ISO 12100 für die Risikobewertung und EN 415-6 für Palettenwickelmaschinen in CE-Märkten.
