2.3 INTENDED USE - PROPER USE - PURPOSE
The wrapping machine, designed to be anchored to the
ground, has been designed and
constructed for
wrapping various types of products stacked on pallets
with stretch film, in order
to stabilise the package and
to protect it from damp and dust during transport and
storage.
Using a lifting apparatus, the pallet with the products to
be wrapped is placed on the turntable;
the stretch film
is applied by means of a dedicated carriage which
moves on the vertical axis
according to the height of
the product to be wrapped.
Working limitations
For safety reasons suitable working limitations have
been imposed, in keeping with the size of
the machine
and the relative turntable. The products to be wrapped
must be within the working
limits of the machine in your
possession, specified in terms of maximum load and
maximum
dimensions, on the basis of the turntable
diameter (Ø), as illustrated in Fig. 2.5.
Stretch film
Use a film of specification suitable for the type of
carriage available and for the type of
packaging
application for which the machine was intended;
always evaluate the choice of film
in relation to its
safety sheet.
Use a perforated film if the wrapped products require
ventilation otherwise they will generate
condensation
(fresh organic products: fruit, vegetables, plants, etc...).
Use a blackout film for the protection of light-sensitive
products.
