Need fully automatic?
If a production line sends cartons one after another, an automatic arch machine straps each carton as it passes. Send us your cartons per hour and their sizes and we'll check what's available.

Tips
- Use machine-grade strap, not hand-grade, so it doesn't jam.
- Set tension to suit the carton, so the strap doesn't crush the edges.
- Clean plastic residue off the heater and cutter regularly.
