Heavy Duty Automatic Strapping Machine For Metal Aluminum Ingots Coils Tubes

This automatic strapping machine for the metal industry is the core supporting equipment of the rear-end automatic packaging line for the production of aluminum ingots, aluminum tubes, aluminum coils and other metal products. Deeply customized to address the industry pain points of the metal industry such as easy pallet scattering in heavy-duty stacking, low efficiency of manual strapping, uneven strapping tension leading to deformation, scratch damage to metal products, and inability to connect with production line automation, it completely replaces the tedious manual strapping operations and solves the problems of poor adaptability, unstable strapping and easy damage to metal products of traditional strapping machines.

The machine can be seamlessly connected with palletizers, roller conveyors and lift positioning tables at the rear end of metal production lines, completing the fully automated strapping process of automatic conveying → precise centering positioning → intelligent threading → adjustable tension tightening → automatic cutting and bonding → finished product discharging for metal pallet goods without any manual intervention. A single machine can adapt to the strapping needs of various metal products such as whole-pallet stacking of aluminum ingots, long-material palletizing of aluminum tubes, and horizontal/vertical packaging of large-diameter aluminum coils.

• Finished aluminum ingot packaging: Whole-pallet strapping after aluminum ingot palletizing on the cold bed, adapted to the automatic rear-end packaging of production lines in electrolytic aluminum and recycled aluminum enterprises, preventing stacking tilting and pallet scattering

• Aluminum tube/aluminum profile packaging: Strapping of whole pallets/bundles of aluminum tubes, industrial aluminum profiles and special-shaped aluminum materials, with long-material positioning to prevent pipe sliding and scratching

• Aluminum coil/coiled material packaging: Heavy-duty strapping of horizontal/vertical aluminum coils, steel coils and copper coils, customizable annular strapping and multi-strap strapping to meet the packaging needs of large-diameter coiled materials

• Metal product warehousing packaging: Standardized strapping before metal finished products are put into storage, ensuring the stability of multi-layer stacking in warehousing and adapting to the operation of high-level shelves and stackers in warehouses

• Metal logistics transportation packaging: Strapping of metal products for outbound logistics, meeting the anti-scattering and anti-displacement requirements of long-distance road and sea transportation, eliminating transportation losses

• End full line supporting for metal production lines: Docking with the fully automatic production lines of metal smelting and processing, forming an integrated rear-end packaging line of palletizing - strapping - transferring with palletizers, AGVs and conveyors

Q1: Can the equipment adapt to the annular strapping of large-diameter aluminum coils, and will it extrude the aluminum coils and cause deformation?

A1: Yes, the aluminum coil-specific annular strapping model can be customized. The equipment adopts a precise adjustable tension design, the tightening tension can be preset according to the thickness and diameter of the aluminum coil. The soft strapping mode can realize the stability of annular strapping of aluminum coils and eliminate the deformation of aluminum coils caused by extrusion. At present, it has been adapted to the packaging needs of mainstream domestic aluminum coils with a diameter of 1.5-3m.

Q2: The whole pallet of heavy aluminum ingots is more than 5000kg, will the pallet scatter during multi-layer stacking in warehousing after strapping, and how about the strapping stability?

A2: The equipment is specially designed for heavy-duty metal products, with a standard tightening tension of ≥3000N, and ultra-heavy tension of 5000N can be customized. At the same time, it supports 4-6 horizontal + vertical cross strapping, the bonding strength after strapping is ≥90% of the body strength of the strapping belt. There is no pressure for multi-layer stacking of aluminum ingot whole pallets within 8000kg in warehousing, which fully meets the stacking requirements of the metal industry.

Q3: Aluminum tubes/aluminum profiles are long materials, which are easy to slide during packaging. Can the equipment realize precise positioning strapping?

A3: The equipment is equipped with a metal long material-specific positioning device, the positioning stoppers can be adjusted according to the length and diameter of aluminum tubes/aluminum profiles to realize precise centering positioning of long material pallets. At the same time, customizable multi-strap equidistant strapping completely solves the problem of sliding and pallet scattering in long material packaging. At present, it has been adapted to the packaging of aluminum tubes/aluminum profiles within 6 meters.

Q4: Metal workshops are full of dust and oil, will the service life of the equipment be affected, and is the daily maintenance complicated?

A4: The equipment body adopts a heavy anti-corrosion spray coating + sealed electric control box design, which can effectively resist the erosion of dust and oil in metal workshops, and the core components are sealed and protected; in addition, the equipment is of modular design, daily maintenance only needs to clean the tape feeding wheel regularly and add lubricating oil, no professional maintenance personnel is needed, and ordinary operators can complete it.

Q5: Can the equipment be connected with our existing palletizers and AGVs for aluminum ingot production to realize whole-line automation?

A5: Seamless docking is available. The equipment supports mainstream PLC communication protocols on the market and is compatible with the control signals of palletizers, AGVs and roller conveyors commonly used in the metal industry; our engineers will conduct on-site surveys of the existing production lines and make customized docking according to the control mode to realize the fully unmanned process of palletizing - strapping - transferring.
