Product Description

Stretch Holder
General Introduction:
Stretch Hooder efficiently secures pallet loads, wrapping them from top to bottom in one stroke, optimizing uptime efficiency. The tight-fitting hood ensures load stability even when opened. It provides optimal outdoor protection against water, humidity, UV, and diverse weather conditions. The plastic film can be transparent or pre-printed with your logo, enhancing brand visibility at your customers' sites. Capable of securing various loads, including mixed, uneven, short, tall, heavy, and light, the pallet hooder requires minimal maintenance and is easy to operate.

Working Process:
The Stretch Hooder creates a cover from tubular film and stretches it over the pallet to secure the load on the pallet. When the pallet enters the machine the length of the required cover is determined by measuring the length, width and height of the load and pallet. After opening and sealing the film it is rolled-up on the film gripper arms. Each of the arms can move in two directions to adapt on the pallet load. The film gripper arms stretch the rolled-up cover and guide it downwards over the pallet.  During the hooding the shape of the load is controlled. Once the hood is complete over the pallet the arms move upwards again. The machine releases the hooded pallet and is then ready for the next pallet.

FAQ:
1. What is Stretch Hooder and how does it work?
Stretch Hooder is a unique pallet packaging system, as it protects the pallet using a hood that adapts to the load without the need to apply heat. Stretch Hooder uses a tubular stretch film (Stretch Hood film) which stretches and applies to the load, covering it completely and protecting it on all sides. Unlike other systems, it only uses the exact amount of film needed to protect the load, resulting in a better-protected package with less film usage.

2. What kind of film does the stretch hooder use? What characteristics must the film have?
Stretch Hood film is an advanced packaging film under continuous development and improvement to offer different gripping and protection results. It is a multilayer tubular film composed of Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (mLLDPE) and to a lesser extent EVA polymer, with properties for impermeability, stretchability, and elasticity. Its multilayer structure normally used contains inner layers that offer mechanical strength and stretch (usually composed with some EVA), while its outer layers contain additives that offer resistance to puncturing and friction, as well as sealing and waterproofing (which are those composed with LLDPE). When choosing a film to protect cargo, it is important to know the objectives of securing, protection, visibility, etc. to determine the necessary thickness, stretch properties, or protection additives (e.g. anti-UV filters).
3. Can the Stretch Hooder be integrated into an existing packaging line?
Yes, our Stretch Hooder system can be integrated into any automatic packaging line that requires it. Maybe the other systems should be of the same brand, Stretch Hood system can be retrofitted to lines with existing strapping or stretch wrapping systems to offer the advantages of stretch hooding.
In the case of such integration, our engineering team adapts both the conveyor line and the communication systems to ensure a smooth packaging process.
