> An automatic pallet strapping machine puts vertical straps round a pallet load as it stops in the arch, then sends it on. Our vertical pallet strapper takes loads up to 1,800 mm high and 1,300 mm wide, welds the strap by friction, and sets tension from 50 to 5,000 N. One strap takes about 15 s. Below are the strap cycle, the tension choice for cartons, a strap and throughput example, and the machine data.
A pallet of cartons rides on the green chain conveyor into a white arch frame, with the strapping head in the yellow cabinet at the side. The load stops under the arch, the strap is fed round it and tensioned, and the conveyor moves the pallet on for the next strap position. An operator watches from beside the conveyor.

The strapping cycle
1. **Infeed.** The conveyor brings the pallet into the arch and a sensor stops it at the first strap position.
2. **Feed.** A strap lance passes the strap through the pallet under the load, and the head shoots it round the arch track at up to 3.6 m/s. A monitoring system checks the lance path so the lance is not damaged during the cycle.
3. **Tension.** The head pulls the strap back and tightens it to the set force. The floating head spreads the tension evenly round the load.
4. **Seal.** The overlapping strap ends are friction welded over a 20 mm joint and cut.
5. **Index.** The conveyor moves the pallet to the next strap position, and the cycle repeats.
6. **Outfeed.** After the last strap the pallet leaves the arch.
Friction welding needs no metal seal. Optional edge protectors, 50, 120 or 200 mm long, can be placed under the strap at the top corners.
Setting tension for the load
| Load | Tension to start with | Note |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Light cartons | low end of the range | use edge protectors so the strap does not cut the carton corners |
| Heavy cartons, bags | middle of the range | check that the top layer does not crush |
| Bricks, blocks, metal | high end, up to 5,000 N | strap width 16 or 19 mm |
**Rule.** The strap should hold the load to the pallet without denting it. Start low, raise tension until the load stays square when the pallet is moved, and record the setting per product in the HMI. The numerical setting for each load is fixed at commissioning on your product.
Worked example: strap length and pallets per hour
Take a carton load 1,200 × 1,000 mm on its pallet, 1,650 mm high including the pallet, with two vertical straps across the 1,000 mm side. These are illustrative customer figures.
| 確認 | 計算 | 結果 |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Strap loop | 2 × (1,000 + 1,650) | 5,300 mm |
| Plus 20 mm seal overlap | 5,300 + 20 | 5,320 mm |
| Feed time at 3.6 m/s | 5.32 ÷ 3.6 | about 1.5 s |
| Strap per pallet | 2 × 5.32 | 10.64 m |
| Strapping time per pallet | 2 × 15 s | 30 s |
| Conveyor in, index and out (illustrative) | — | 20 s |
| Pallets per hour | 3,600 ÷ (30 + 20) | 72 |
**Result.** Feeding the strap is fast; tensioning, sealing and indexing take most of the 15 s. One machine covers about 72 pallets an hour with two straps. Each extra strap adds about 15 s, so four straps give 3,600 ÷ (60 + 20) = 45 pallets an hour.

安全性
We design to EN ISO 12100:2010 for risk assessment, EN 415-10 for packaging machine safety, EN 415-8 for strapping machines and EN 60204-1 for the electrical equipment. The strap path in the arch, the sealing head and the conveyor are the hazards. Fences or light curtains at the arch and an emergency stop at the panel are agreed per project, together with the CE documents.
エンジニアリングに関するよくある質問
Q: PP or PET strap?
A: Both run on the friction weld head; PET holds higher tension for heavy loads.
Q: Can it run without an operator?
A: Yes. The conveyor stops each pallet and indexes it between straps; the operator only refills the strap reel.
Q: What size reel does it take?
A: Reels on a 406 mm core.
Q: Can it link to a pallet wrapper?
A: Yes, on the same conveyor line, as in our [one-station wrapping and strapping system](https://www.fhopepack.com/videos/automatic-pallet-wrapping-and-strapping-system-for-covering-wrapping-and-strapping-at-one-station/); the layout is confirmed at quote.
Q: What pallet weight can the conveyor carry?
A: The conveyor is built to your heaviest pallet; the rating is confirmed at quote.
Q: How many straps per pallet?
A: As many as the load needs; each one adds about 15 s.
