Pacmasta Pallet Strapping Machine To Suit 15.5mm PP Strapping

Description

The UPS-900 pallet strapping machine for 15.5mm PP strapping is a compact, mobile vertical strapping solution designed for businesses that need a practical, low-maintenance way to secure pallets at low-to-moderate volumes. Built around a mechanical strapping head with 30% fewer moving parts than conventional machines, the UPS-900 prioritises reliability and ease of operation over high-throughput automation.

Key Features of the UPS-900 Pallet Strapping Machine for 15.5mm PP

• Compact mechanical strapping head: Engineered with 30% fewer moving parts than conventional strapping heads, with no belts, chains, or pulleys in the drive mechanism. This reduces the likelihood of mechanical failure and keeps routine maintenance straightforward.
• Electronic tension control: Strap tension is adjusted via a dial on the control panel, allowing operators to set an accurate, repeatable tension up to a maximum of 700 N (70 kg). No specialist knowledge is required to make adjustments.
• Low-noise sealing head: The sealing mechanism operates at significantly lower noise levels than traditional strapping heads, making it more comfortable to use in open warehouse and production environments.
• Adjustable weld cooling time: Cooling time can be increased to ensure high joint efficiency at higher tension settings, helping maintain a strong, consistent strap joint across different load types.
• Jog switch for positioning: A dedicated jog switch allows operators to move the machine to the precise position needed for maintenance, reducing downtime during servicing.
• Suitable for low-height pallets: The UPS-900 can strap pallets with a height as low as 380mm, covering applications where standard pallet strapping machines may not be adequate.
• Mobile and easy to reposition: The lightweight, compact design means the machine can be moved to the pallet rather than requiring the pallet to be brought to a fixed strapping station.
• Optional battery power supply: A battery-powered option (TP-502MVB) is available for use in locations without convenient mains power access.

Typical Applications

The UPS-900 pallet strapping machine for 15.5mm PP strapping handles a range of vertical pallet strapping tasks, including corrugated cardboard cartons, concrete blocks, and mixed pallets loaded with boxed goods. Because the machine is mobile and capable of strapping pallets as low as 380mm, it is particularly well suited to warehouses, distribution centres, and manufacturing facilities where pallet dimensions vary and a fixed strapping station would be impractical. It is designed for low-volume strapping operations where reliability and straightforward operation take priority over high-throughput automation.

Who Is This Machine Suited To?

The UPS-900 suits businesses that strap pallets intermittently rather than continuously – for example, in a dispatch area where finished goods are palletised at the end of a shift, or in a warehouse receiving area where inbound pallets need to be re-strapped before storage. The electronic tension control and simple dial adjustment mean operators can be trained quickly without specialist knowledge. The absence of belts, chains, and pulleys also means fewer components to inspect and replace during routine maintenance, keeping servicing predictable and consistent over time.

If your operation also requires a bench-based semi-automatic strapping machine to handle smaller packages and cartons alongside your pallet strapping workflow, the Pacmasta Semi-Auto Strapping Machine (Open Frame) is worth considering as a complementary strapping station.
