Up to 13,000 lbs of electric compression

The PowerMaster features electrically powered compression platens for greater consistency and reliability, allowing for up to 13,000 pounds of compression using an oversized dual rack and pinion equalizer system. A reference point is identified once the desired compression is reached so that subsequent compression strokes reach the exact same position, resulting in even stress on all straps and a level load.

The GS-41 strapping head

The PowerMaster is equipped with the GS-41 strapping head.

Load handling options

The PowerMaster offers turntables, rotating cross and centering devices for all handling needs, accommodating pallets and palletless loads.

Up to four strapping heads

The PowerMaster can either be fitted with up to four stationary strapping heads, or with one or two moving strapping heads feeding as many as four strap tracks. This arrangement allows application of strap in up to four positions without releasing compression.
