X500 Model E Type Turntable Fully Automatic Pallet Wrapping Machine

Description

The X500 Model E turntable pallet wrapping machine is a fully automatic stretch wrapping solution designed for facilities that move pallets using a pallet jack. Its open-entry E-type turntable allows a pallet jack to roll directly onto the machine without lifting, making load handling fast and straightforward. The machine applies LLDPE stretch film automatically, protecting goods from dust, moisture, and transport damage throughout the supply chain.

Key Features of the X500 Model E Turntable Pallet Wrapping Machine

The X500 Model E turntable pallet wrapping machine includes a comprehensive set of features designed to reduce film consumption, support operator safety, and handle demanding industrial loads consistently.

• E-Type Open-Entry Turntable: The open-bottom turntable design accepts pallets directly from a pallet jack – no lifting required. A standard 1650mm turntable accommodates 1200mm x 1200mm pallets, with optional 1800mm and 2000mm sizes also available.
• 300% Powered Pre-Stretch: Every 1 metre of film is stretched to 3 metres before application, significantly reducing film consumption per pallet without compromising load containment.
• 2000kg Load Capacity: Handles heavy industrial pallet loads reliably across a wide range of product types.
• Wrapping Height: Standard configuration wraps to 2.4m. An optional 3.0m wrapping height is available for taller loads.
• Automatic Cut and Clamp: Film is cut and clamped automatically at the end of each cycle – no manual film handling is required by the operator.
• Remote Control Operation: The operator can initiate and monitor the wrapping cycle from a forklift or pallet jack via remote control, reducing the need to dismount repeatedly.
• Siemens Touchscreen PLC: Stores up to 6 wrapping programs. Turntable speed, film carriage speed, and all wrapping parameters can be configured and saved per program.
• Multi-Layer Wrapping – Up to 9 Zones: Up to 9 individual wrapping zones can be defined on a single pallet, each with its own wrapping force and number of revolutions, allowing targeted reinforcement at the base, top, or any point on the load.
• Film Roping System: A device in the power stretch head rolls the lower edge of the film into a rope, increasing tear resistance for unstable or difficult loads. Roping can be applied at the base, top, or any defined zone.
• Photoelectric Pallet Height Detection: The machine detects pallet height automatically. An optional black wrap sensor is also available.
• Automatic Pallet Clamp System: Keeps the pallet stable throughout the wrapping cycle.
• Intelligent Alarm System: An LED indicator (blue = standby, green = running, red = fault) combined with on-screen diagnostics helps operators identify and clear errors quickly.
• Quality Electrical Components: Includes Siemens PLC, X-LINE Inverter, SICK proximity switch, AUTONICS photoelectric switch, WEIDMULLER terminal block, and OMRON 24V DC power supply.
• Safety Features: Film carriage safety door with sensor, safety device under the film carriage, transparent door panel for visual inspection, and belt deviation and damage alarm.
• Soft Start and Soft Stop: Reduces mechanical stress and extends machine service life.
• Forklift Pockets: Allows the machine to be repositioned within a facility using a forklift.
• Auto Reset: Turntable returns to its home position automatically after each completed cycle.
• Optional Extras: Loading ramp and integrated weight scales are available as optional additions.

Typical Applications

The X500 Model E turntable pallet wrapping machine suits a broad range of B2B and industrial environments where consistent, automated pallet wrapping is a daily requirement. Common industries include food and beverage, manufacturing, glassware, tools, electrical and electronics, paper products, and pottery. It is particularly well matched to facilities that rely on pallet jacks rather than forklifts for internal pallet movement, thanks to the open-entry E-type turntable design. High-throughput sites and operations where operator safety and efficiency are priorities will benefit from the remote control operation and fully automatic film handling.

The X500 Model E is available with a standard 2.4m wrapping height or an optional 3.0m configuration, and can be specified with or without integrated weight scales to suit your operational requirements. If you are evaluating alternatives – for example, loads that benefit from top-pressure stabilisation during wrapping – the X300 Top Pressure Fully Automatic Pallet Wrapping Machine offers a comparable feature set with a different approach to load control.
