Arpac Sidewinder 6 Stretch Machine

SKU IPS-SIDEWINDER-6
Low or High Profile Heavy-Duty Semi-Automatic Stretch Wrapper With Wrap-N-Weigh. The SIDEWINDER® 6 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-duty reinforced structural steel finished with Steel-It paint to guarantee years of reliable wrapping. The SIDEWINDER® 6 is manufactured in the USA and sold through our nationwide distributor network. The SIDEWINDER® 6 is a heavy-duty semi-automatic stretch wrapper with 6,000 lb. capacity. This model is available with a high profile turntable for forklift loading, and low profile turntable for pallet-jack loading. The operator attaches the film to the load, and presses the start button to begin the wrap sequence. After the load is wrapped, the operator cuts the film. An optional Automatic Film Tear Device (AFTD) tears the film automatically at the end of the wrapping cycle. The SIDEWINDER® 6 can be customized to suit your material handling requirements with extended towers for taller loads, extended bases for larger loads, and split frames for odd-sized larger loads. The SIDEWINDER® 6 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 extra load support.
