CST 204 Stretch Wrapper Machine with Pre Stretch System
STRETCH WRAPPER: CST 204
A special type of stretch wrapper called the CST 204 is used to wrap palletized loads in stretch film and secure them. A film carriage on this machine applies stretch film to the load as a motorized turntable turns the pallet. With its changeable wrap parameters, you may adjust the number of wraps, the wrap tension, and the wrap speed to fit your needs. A film pre-stretch technology that lengthens the stretch film and reduces film consumption may also be included in the CST 204. The CST 204 is made to make the pallet wrapping process more efficient while yet guaranteeing the stability and security of the contents during storage and transportation.

How does STRETCH WRAPPER: CST 204 work?
The machine is simple to use because of the buttons' obvious and straightforward functions. The film roll may be rapidly and easily replaced. Additionally, the bottom plate has grooves that allow a forklift to move the machine internally.
- Adjustable turntable speed & film carriage speed
- Motor-driven pre-stretch 150%-200% - 250%
- Adjustable number of bottom and top wraps
- Wrapping speed 12 rpm
- Possibility to save wrapping programs
Wraps loads with unusual shapes. Stretch wrapper is loaded using a forklift or pallet jack. A machine operator starts the wrapping cycle. Operator cuts/attaches film by hand. With the redesigned display, all programme settings and parameters may be changed with ease. Film patterns and tension are just two examples of the many manual controls available. As long as the pre stretch ratio is kept constant, reduced film consumption is ensured load after load.
