The product moves horizontally through the machine on powered conveyors while a rotating ring (the &#8220;orbital&#8221; component) dispenses stretch film around the product as it passes through.<\/p>\n<p>The key mechanism involves:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Infeed conveyor<\/strong> \u2014 Product enters at controlled speed<\/li>\n<li><strong>Rotating ring<\/strong> \u2014 Orbits perpendicularly to product flow, carrying film carriage<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pre-stretch system<\/strong> \u2014 Stretches film 150\u2013300% before application (maximizes yield)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Film application<\/strong> \u2014 Continuous spiral wrapping along product length<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cut and clamp<\/strong> \u2014 Automated film cutting and tail sealing<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>This method provides <strong>complete 360-degree coverage<\/strong> along the entire product length \u2014 critical for long items that cannot be rotated on a standard wrapper.<\/p>\n<h2>What Products Can Be Orbital Wrapped?<\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Product Type<\/th>\n<th>Examples<\/th>\n<th>Typical Dimensions<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Pipes<\/td>\n<td>PVC, PE, steel, aluminum<\/td>\n<td>50\u2013600mm dia, 2\u201312m length<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Profiles<\/td>\n<td>Aluminum extrusions, plastic profiles<\/td>\n<td>50\u2013400mm width, 2\u201315m length<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Bundles<\/td>\n<td>Tube bundles, rod bundles<\/td>\n<td>50\u2013500mm bundle dia<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Long components<\/td>\n<td>Motors, engines, machinery<\/td>\n<td>Up to 2,000mm width<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Building materials<\/td>\n<td>Lumber, doors, panels<\/td>\n<td>Various lengths<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The orbital wrapper handles products that are <strong>too long, too heavy, or too awkwardly shaped<\/strong> for conventional wrapping methods.

Wrapped products can be stored outdoors and handled without surface damage.<\/p>\n<h3>Manufacturing<\/h3>\n<p>Motors, engines, pumps, assembled components, furniture parts, and appliances require secure containment during distribution. Orbital wrapping provides the stabilization needed for sensitive equipment.<\/p>\n<h3>Metals Industry<\/h3>\n<p>Rods, bars, tubes, and coils bundle efficiently for transit. VCI film options provide rust protection for steel products during storage and sea freight.<\/p>\n<h3>Logistics and Distribution<\/h3>\n<p>Non-standard pallet sizes and oversized items benefit from orbital wrapping ability to handle products that do not fit conventional wrapping equipment.<\/p>\n<h2>What Film Options Maximize Performance?<\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Film Type<\/th>\n<th>Thickness<\/th>\n<th>Pre-stretch<\/th>\n<th>Application<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Standard LLDPE<\/td>\n<td>17\u201323 micron<\/td>\n<td>Up to 250%<\/td>\n<td>General purpose<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Heavy-duty LLDPE<\/td>\n<td>25\u201335 micron<\/td>\n<td>Up to 200%<\/td>\n<td>Export, heavy products<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>VCI Anti-rust<\/td>\n<td>25\u201335 micron<\/td>\n<td>Up to 200%<\/td>\n<td>Steel protection<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>UV-resistant<\/td>\n<td>25\u201335 micron<\/td>\n<td>Up to 200%<\/td>\n<td>Outdoor storage<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Film selection significantly impacts performance. Higher pre-stretch ratios require films with excellent tensile strength and memory properties.<\/p>\n<h2>FAQ<\/h2>\n<h3>What is the typical ROI for orbital wrapping?<\/h3>\n<p>Most installations achieve payback within 8\u201314 months. Key savings include: labor reduction (1\u20132 operators), film cost reduction (20\u201340%), and damage claim reduction (40\u201360%). A facility wrapping 100 products\/day typically saves $100,000\u2013$180,000 annually.<\/p>\n<h3>Can the system handle different product sizes?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes \u2014 adjustable ring diameter and conveyor guide rails accommodate multiple product sizes. Changeover time: 15\u201330 minutes for diameter changes. For high-mix facilities, quick-change tooling reduces changeover to 5\u201310 minutes.<\/p>\n<h3>How does pre-stretch improve efficiency?<\/h3>\n<p>Pre-stretching the film before application elongates the material, allowing the same roll to cover more surface area. A 250% pre-stretch means 1 meter of film covers 3.5 meters of product surface \u2014 dramatically reducing film consumption and cost per wrap.<\/p>\n<h3>What maintenance is required?<\/h3>\n<p>Daily: visual inspection, film roll replacement. Weekly: conveyor belt tension, ring bearing check. Monthly: lubrication, sensor calibration. Annual: comprehensive service. Maintenance cost: 1.5\u20132.5% of equipment value per year.<\/p>\n<h2>\u83b7\u53d6\u6280\u672f\u8d44\u6599<\/h2>\n<p>\u5982\u9700\u5b8c\u6574\u53c2\u6570\u8868\u3001\u7cfb\u7edf\u5e03\u5c40\u56fe\u6216\u53c2\u89c2\u5df2\u5b89\u88c5\u4ea7\u7ebf\u7684\u673a\u4f1a\uff0c\u8bf7\u8054\u7cfb\u6211\u4eec\u7684\u5de5\u7a0b\u56e2\u961f\u3002<\/p>\n<p>\u6211\u4eec\u53ef\u63d0\u4f9b\uff1a<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u6c34\u5e73\u8f68\u9053\u5f0f\u7f20\u7ed5\u673a\u5b8c\u6574\u6280\u672f\u89c4\u683c\u4e66<\/li>\n<li>\u4e0d\u540c\u4ea7\u54c1\u548c\u8584\u819c\u7684\u9009\u578b\u6307\u5357<\/li>\n<li>\u4ea7\u80fd\u8ba1\u7b97\u548c\u6295\u8d44\u56de\u62a5\u5206\u6790<\/li>\n<li>\u5df2\u5b89\u88c5\u5ba2\u6237\u540d\u5355\u548c\u73b0\u573a\u8003\u5bdf\u5b89\u6392<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Internal Links:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/orbital-stretch-wrapper.html\">orbital wrappers<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/Automatic-horizontal-stretch-wrapper\/\">online orbital wrappers<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FHOPE horizontal orbital stretch wrapping machines protect long, heavy, and awkwardly shaped products \u2014 achieving 360-degree coverage with pre-stretch ratios up to 250% for material efficiency and load containment.
