  • This makes it possible to protect and stabilize the object, or set of objects to each other, and to stabilize it, for example, on a transport pallet before storage and handling thereof.
  • the plastic film used is thin, generally between 10 and 30 ⁇ m thick, and preferably it is stretchable or pre-stretched.
  • the packaging step of the object, or set of objects can be performed either manually using a manual reel or in an automated or semi-automated manner by the use of a film wrapper, also called wrapper.

  • EP2634101 also offers an annular track filmer made of segments that we add to each other to increase the size of the track.
  • Such a film maker can be considered as being adaptive; however, it is only suitable for batch processing of given objects, shapes, and dimensions, and not for object-by-object processing.
  • it is necessary to add one or more segments to the annular track whereas if a smaller object is to be, one or more segments must be removed; which involves long, hardworking and delicate manipulations on the part of the operator of the film-maker, without being certain of respecting the geometry chosen for the annular track. If the adjustment of one or more segments was wrong, the cart on the track could at best hang, at worst derail.

  • the packaging product a plastic stretch film, is then engaged in the rolls of the distribution means 7.
  • the application of the packaging product is as follows: The arm 4 performs a first lap at a slow speed, with no vertical speed of the means 7 for dispensing the packaging product, without pre-stretching the packaging product and with a reduced voltage.
  • the arm 4 has made a complete revolution along an oblong trajectory in the same plane, and the beginning of the packaging product is maintained by the first strapping ring, the pliers of the dispensing means 7 open to release the end of the packaging product.
  • the blower is activated to fold the packaging product on the object 17.
  • the arm 4 accelerates to the nominal speed, defined by the type of packaging product, the clutch of the stretch is engaged and the product tension of packaging is increased to nominal value.
  • the arm 4 then performs an integer number "n" of horizontal turns at the base of the object 17.
  • the vertical movement of the packaging material dispensing means 7 is activated at a climbing speed.
  • the optical probe detects the top of the object 17, the arm 4 continues to apply the packaging product to a determined height and parameterizable by performing "p" turns oblong horizontally. Then the means 7 for dispensing the packaging product back down to their initial position, in the lower position at the end of the arm 4.
  • the stretching is disengaged and the application tension of the packaging product is reduced.
  • the packaging product is then welded and cut.
  • the method according to the invention may furthermore provide a step of placing a cap of a suitable product on the top of the article 17 to be packaged, before or after the packaging process, and possibly the packaging product. can cover all or part of this cap.
