Domaine(s)
  • Machines et équipement d'emballage
  • Emballages en matières plastiques
  • Techniques d'emballage
DEF

Machine d'emballage employée pour la mise sous film étirable de charges palettisées, de lots (exemple : les multipacks) ou de fardeaux.

OBS

En exploitant les propriétés d'élasticité à froid de certains plastiques (PEbd, PEbdl, PVC, EVA), on parvient à mettre sous film étirable des palettes, des fardeaux ou des lots unitaires.

OBS

Nous avons délibérément écarté les notions de «banderoleuse» ou «fardeleuse sous film étirable», car la première se rapporte surtout à la palettisation tandis que la seconde s'effectue sur bande transporteuse.
