In modern factories and warehousing and logistics sites where whole pallets of goods are frequently shipped, pallet packaging is no longer just "as simple as wrapping a circle of film". In order to ensure the overall structure of the pallet and the goods is firm, and to prevent slippage, loose packages, offset or even collapse during transportation, strapping and strapping have become a "must-have action" for whole pallet packaging. However, traditional strapping operations rely on manual or semi-automatic equipment, with low operating efficiency, belt position deviation, and unstable tension, which not only increases labor intensity, but also easily affects packaging quality. The emergence of the fully automatic sword-piercing strapping machine just solves this bottleneck - it uses the method of "automatic strapping + precise tightening + one-button welding" to achieve rapid strapping and structural reinforcement of the entire pallet, improving shipping efficiency, beat stability and packaging professionalism.
The fully automatic sword-piercing strapping machine is a high-efficiency strapping equipment designed specifically for pallet-type goods, and is widely used in food and beverage, building materials, daily chemicals, chemicals, electrical appliances, e-commerce warehousing and other industries. Its core feature is to pass the PP or PET strapping tape through the gap at the bottom of the pallet through a high-speed sword-piercing device, and then the main machine completes the automatic tightening, hot-melt bonding and tape breaking operations. The entire process does not require manual intervention, and the action is continuous and smooth. It is a truly "unattended strapping station".
Take a paper product export company in Jiangsu as an example. The company packs and ships more than 600 pallets per day. It originally used a semi-automatic strapping machine, which required manual strapping and position adjustment. The overall rhythm fluctuated greatly and the labor intensity was high. Since upgrading to a fully automatic sword-piercing strapping machine, there is no need for manual participation in the strapping process. The packaging time per pallet is stable at about 15 seconds, the whole line beat has been significantly accelerated, the shipping capacity has been increased by nearly 40%, and the position of each belt is consistent, and the integrity and professionalism of the packaging have been significantly enhanced.
The equipment is mainly composed of a sword-piercing system, a strapping host, a welding and cutting system, a PLC intelligent control system, a photoelectric detection module and a touch operation interface. The workflow is: the goods stop in the strapping area → the sword-piercing mechanism is triggered by induction → the tape is automatically fed in → the tensioning system applies the set tension → hot melt bonding → automatic cutting. The whole process is executed continuously, and the strapping effect is stable and controllable.
The sword-piercing mechanism is made of high-strength alloy material, which can be quickly inserted into the bottom of various tray structures (such as parallel two-way/tic-tac-toe four-way), and is suitable for commonly used strapping specifications (13.5mm x0.85mm fully automatic PP strapping tape or PET strapping tape (12mmx0.6mm fully automatic PET strapping tape). The strapping tension supports multi-level adjustment to ensure that pallet goods of different materials and weights can be strapped tightly and accurately without damaging the packaging.
The equipment can operate independently as a single machine, or it can be integrated into an automated packaging production line to form a fully automatic post-packaging station with a palletizer, a film wrapping machine, a laminating device, and a weighing and labeling system.
Compared with the traditional strapping method, the fully automatic sword-piercing strapping machine not only improves speed, but also standardizes packaging quality, controllable operation rhythm, and continuously reduces operating costs. Each pallet has a fixed strapping position, consistent tension, and reliable sealing, which completely avoids transportation risks caused by manual strapping that is not tight, not in place, or missing straps. It is a key equipment for large-volume pallet shipment companies to improve delivery quality.
