The conveyor splits the flow between them and merges it again before stacking.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"eye-wrapping\">How eye wrapping works<\/h2>\n<p>Once the tyre is indexed onto the turning rollers, the ring opens, the tyre moves into the wrapping station, and the ring closes through the tyre eye. The film roll sits on the ring, so each ring turn lays one band of film through the eye and around the tread.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time the supporting rollers turn the tyre slowly, so the bands step around the whole circumference. Rollers in contact with the tyre are covered with PU to protect the tread and sidewall.<\/p>\n<p>A clamper holds the film end at the start of the cycle until the first bands lock it, and at the end the film tail is cut and pressed against the wrapped tyre. The ring then returns to its home position so the next tyre can enter. The cut and tail-sealing method, compressed air and power supply are confirmed at quote.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"film-overlap\">Film and overlap<\/h2>\n<p>Overlap between bands is adjustable from 20\u201380%. More overlap gives a thicker, more weather-tight pack. Less overlap saves film and time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Film advance per ring turn = film width \u00d7 (1 \u2212 overlap).<\/strong> The ring speed and the tyre rotation speed are set together by inverters to hit that advance. Film tension is preset before wrapping starts, so the first bands lie as tight as the last.<\/p>\n<p>The line uses stretch film rolls with a 50 mm core, an outer diameter of 80\u2013120 mm and a width of 60\u201370 mm. Small rolls keep the ring light enough to run at speed, but they run out sooner, so plan roll changes by counting tyres per roll on the first shift.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"labelling\">Labelling and taping<\/h2>\n<p>After wrapping, an automatic taping device can feed and cut BOPP tape onto the package, adjusting for each tyre height. On a full line, the tyre code is read and sent to the plant system, and a label is applied before stacking. The label layout is your own and is set during commissioning.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"output\">Cycle time and output<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Tyres per hour per wrapper = 3,600 \u00f7 cycle time.<\/strong> With a 30\u201335 s cycle:<\/p>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th style=\"text-align: left\">Check<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align: left\">Calculation<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align: left\">Result<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Slow cycle<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">3,600 \u00f7 35<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">about 103 per hour<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Fast cycle<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">3,600 \u00f7 30<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">120 per hour<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Two wrappers<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">2 \u00d7 103 to 2 \u00d7 120<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">about 206\u2013240 per hour<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The cycle includes loading, centering, wrapping and release.

The wrap position adjusts automatically for different OD, and the ring level adjusts for tyre height.<\/p>\n<p>Q: How is overlap set?\nA: On the touch screen, from 20\u201380%. Inverters match ring speed and tyre rotation to it.<\/p>\n<p>Q: Will the rollers mark the tyre?\nA: The turning and centering rollers are PU covered to protect the tread and sidewall.<\/p>\n<p>Q: Can the line stack the tyres too?\nA: Yes. A stacking machine at the outfeed palletizes the packed tyres.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"next-step\">Next step<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Send your tyre size range, weights and tyres per hour<\/strong> to
