Wulftec Vario Master 9460/9471 Strapping System
Automatic high performance strapping machine for full pallet loads. For integration in powered conveyor line. The strapping head is positioned horizontally above the load and, as part of the strapping cycle, will be lowered towards the load to be strapped. The bottom section of the strapping arch can be a standard undertrack style, or an electric motor driven pallet bayonet for “through-pallet” strapping, or a combination of both.

Optional electrically driven pallet bayonet (void feeder) allowing through pallet strapping. Friction wheel driven and guided by wide span sealed bearings.
One head can be used for two different strap track, both tracks get strap through on same platen cycle. Head motion is guided through linear bearings with electrically driven motion with direct rack/pinion drive for smooth and reliable operation. Head position detection through accurate proximity sensors. Complete head is mounted on hinge for easy access, cleaning, and troubleshooting
The vertical move of the lift frame containing the strapping head is achieved through an electric motor/reducer and dual #60 chains, assuring accurate and consistent lift frame motion. Optional compression up to 2,200 lbs is available, strapping head is then contained in a platen which is mounted in a “floating” position supported by coil springs allowing minimum compression down to 100 lbs.
