WCA-TWIN Automatic Turntable Stretch Wrappers


High speed dual tower rotating turntable

  • The speed of a one-way wrap while keeping the x-pattern
    With the dual towers/dual carriages, combine the stability and load containment of an X-pattern while achieving the speed of a one-way wrap. While one of the carriages wrap from bottom up, the other carriage wraps from top to bottom, reducing the number of rotations while achieving the same load containment as a conventional dual-way wrap
  • Wrap double-stacked loads individually
    Use one tower and one carriage to wrap the bottom load while the second tower and second carriage wraps the top load separately; obtain two individually wrapped loads simultaneously.
  • More throughput with less revolutions
    Apply the same amount of stretch film with fewer revolutions by using the two film carriages to wrap a single load.
  • Versatility in mind
    Equip one of the carriages with pneumatic roping or banding to increase load containment with a minimum number of rotations; increased efficiency. Also secure the top and bottom portion of the load during the first rotation to improve load stability.
