Kraft paper gives each profile its own cover, so profiles do not rub in the bundle. Paper also recycles easily, which many building-product buyers ask for. Wrapping long profiles by hand is slow and uneven; the machine wraps every profile the same way.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"line\">How the wrapping line works<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Paper laying:<\/strong> kraft paper is laid across the row of folding stations.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Profile placing:<\/strong> the profile is placed lengthwise on the paper.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Folding:<\/strong> curved folding guides at each station lift the paper and close it around the profile.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Transfer:<\/strong> chain conveyors move the wrapped profile between stations.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Outfeed:<\/strong> the wrapped profile leaves on rollers for bundling.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th style=\"text-align: left\">Unit<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align: left\">Function<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Paper laying unit<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">places kraft paper across the stations<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Folding stations<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">fold the paper around the profile<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Chain transfer<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">moves profiles between stations<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Roller outfeed<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">carries wrapped profiles on<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The line runs continuous feeding with stations working in parallel, so one profile is folded while the next is placed.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"paper-width\">Sizing the paper<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Paper width = section perimeter + overlap.<\/strong> A 60 \u00d7 40 mm section has a perimeter of 2 \u00d7 (60 + 40) = 200 mm. Adding a 30 mm overlap gives a 230 mm paper width (example only). Odd sections with grooves and flanges use the outer envelope perimeter.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"paper-use\">Paper use per run<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Paper area = paper width \u00d7 profile length.<\/strong> A 6 m profile with 0.23 m paper uses 0.23 \u00d7 6 = 1.38 m\u00b2. A run of 1,000 profiles uses about 1,380 m\u00b2 (example only).
