Arpac Sidewinder 4 Stretch Machine
SKU IPS-SIDEWINDER-4
The SIDEWINDER® 4 is part of a robust line of stretch wrapping equipment designed to maximize stretch film usage while ensuring the very best load unitization. All ARPACSTRETCHTM equipment is constructed with heavy gauge reinforced structural steel and finished with non-corrosive Steel-It paint, guaranteeing years of reliable wrapping. The SIDEWINDER® 4 is manufactured in the USA and sold through our nationwide distribution network.
The SIDEWINDER® 4 is a heavy-duty semi-automatic stretch wrapper with 4,000 lb. capacity. This model is available with a high profile turntable for forklift loading, and low profile turntable for pallet-jack loading.
The SIDEWINDER® 4 can be customized with extended towers for taller loads, and split frames for odd-sized larger loads. This system is also available with a 30" film carriage and dual turntables for greater throughput, cold and freezer packs for reliable operation in extremely harsh temperatures, and a pneumatic roping device for additional load support. For more efficiency, an Automatic Film Tear Device (AFTD) tears the film automatically at the end of the wrapping cycle.
