a belt keeps them supported through the ring.<\/p>\n<p>Q: How many turns does a short carton need?\nA: About 5 turns for a 600 mm carton at 50% overlap with 250 mm film in the worked example.<\/p>\n<p>Q: Can it wrap longer items too?\nA: Yes, the belt length and ring size are set to your item range.<\/p>\n<p>Q: What film is used?\nA: Stretch film, width set to the item size.<\/p>\n<p>Q: Is it automatic?\nA: The operator starts the cycle; feeding can be linked to your line.<\/p>\n<p>Q: Which standards apply?\nA: For CE markets, ISO 12100 and EN 415-10.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"next-step\">Next step<\/h2>\n<p>We match a horizontal stretch wrapper in three steps:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Submit your layout drawing<\/strong> with item sizes and items per hour, to <strong>info@fhopepack.com<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Receive a proposal within 48 hours<\/strong> with the machine data and layout.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Book a site survey<\/strong> so we confirm the infeed and outfeed.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 id=\"related-reading\">Related reading<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/videos\/horizontal-orbital-stretch-wrapper-for-pallet-strapping-and-wrapping\/\">Horizontal Orbital Wrapper for Pallet Strapping and Wrapping<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/videos\/economic-horizontal-orbital-stretch-wrapper-for-pipe-and-tube\/\">Economic Horizontal Orbital Wrapper for Pipe and Tube<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/videos\/automatic-door-wrapping-machine-stretch-wrapper\/\">Automatic Door Wrapping Machine<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/orbital-stretch-wrapper.html\">Orbital stretch wrapper<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"sources\">Sources<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Machine content: FHOPE engineering team, 2026-10-10<\/li>\n<li>Clip: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=roINFaAqSRw\">the video on YouTube<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Turns per carton: our worked example, illustrative values<\/li>\n<li>Standards scope: ISO 12100:2010;
