X300 Top Pressure Fully Automatic Pallet Wrapping Machine

Description

The X300 top pressure pallet wrapping machine is a fully automatic turntable system built for operations that handle light, top-heavy, or unstable pallet loads. Where a standard wrapping machine allows loads to shift or collapse mid-cycle, the X300 applies 35 kg of electric clamping pressure throughout the entire wrap – keeping the load stable from start to finish and reducing the risk of film failures or product damage.

Key Features of the X300 Top Pressure Pallet Wrapping Machine

The X300 is configured around the specific demands of wrapping difficult or fragile pallet loads. The following features are included as standard, with several options available at the time of order.

• Electric Top Pressure Clamping: Applies 35 kg of stabilising pressure throughout the wrap cycle. Supports loads from 600mm to 2,000mm in height – a lower minimum than most pneumatic systems can achieve.
• 300% Powered Pre-Stretch: Stretches 10 m of film to 30 m, reducing film consumption without compromising load containment.
• Automatic Cut and Clamp: Film is cut and attached automatically at the start and end of every cycle, removing the need for manual film handling by operators.
• Remote Control Operation: The forklift operator places the pallet and starts the wrap cycle from the remote, with no need to dismount the forklift repeatedly.
• 1,650mm Turntable: Suits standard 1,200mm × 1,200mm pallets, with 1,800mm and 2,000mm turntable sizes available. Turntable capacity is 2,000 kg.
• Wrap Height Options: Available in 2.4 m or 3.0 m wrap height to suit different load profiles.
• Siemens PLC and Touch Screen: Stores up to 6 wrapping programs. Turntable speed, film carriage speed, and wrap parameters are configurable per program.
• Multi-Layer Wrapping with Up to 9 Zones: Set different wrapping circles and wrapping forces at specific heights on the pallet for precise containment across the full load profile.
• Film Roping Device: Rolls the lower edge of the film into a rope for added tear resistance at the pallet base. Adjustable for top, bottom, or any wrapping zone.
• Photoelectric Sensor: Automatically detects pallet height to control wrap start and stop points. A black wrap sensor is available as an option.
• Quality Electrical Components: Siemens PLC, X-LINE Inverter, OMRON 24VDC power supply, SICK proximity switch, AUTONICS photoelectric switch, and WEIDMULLER terminal blocks.
• Intelligent Alarm System: LED indicator with blue (standby), green (running), and red (fault/emergency) states. On-screen fault descriptions guide operators through clearing issues quickly.
• Safety Features: Includes a safety device under the film carriage, transparent control door panel, belt deviation and damage alarm, and a film carriage safety door with sensor.
• Forklift Pockets: Allows the machine to be repositioned around the facility using a standard forklift.
• Optional Extras: Loading ramp and weight scales are available as add-on options at the time of order.

Typical Applications

The X300 top pressure pallet wrapping machine suits production and warehouse environments where loads are lightweight, top-heavy, or prone to movement during wrapping. Industries that commonly use this machine include food and beverage, glassware, electronics, paper, pottery, tools, and general manufacturing. The electric top pressure clamping function is particularly useful in operations where standard wrapping machines allow loads to shift or topple, resulting in film failures or product damage. Because the clamping system reaches loads as low as 600mm, it also covers shorter pallet profiles that fall outside the range of many conventional systems.

If your operation primarily handles stable, heavier pallets and top pressure clamping is not a requirement, the X500 Model E fully automatic pallet wrapping machine is a comparable turntable option worth reviewing.
