CHAPTER 2
DESCRIPTION OF THE MACHINE
2.1 OPERATING PRINCIPLE
This machine is a rotating table wrapping machine to wrap palletized loads with stretch film. By
means of an automatic wrapping cycle, it maintains the load’s form, dimensions and height while
wrapping it.
2.2 COMPONENTS OF THE MACHINE
A. Frame: it is made up of a framework with plates and steel sections in order to provide a strong
support to the column and the rotating platform.
B. Column:it is the part of the machine that supports the film roll carriage, the control panel and
the electronic control devices.
C. Rotating platform:it consists of a circular steel sheet, on which the loads to be wrapped are
placed. The rotation takes place by means of a gear motor with chain drive.
D. Film roll carriage:it holds and winds the stretch film coil.
E. Control panel: it contains all the buttons for the control and running of the machine. It is located
on the column. It is built according to the Directives and to the rules in force.

CEC BASE IGM REV13 15

2.2.1 MAIN OPTIONAL GROUPS
A. Power pre-stretch carriage: it allows the film to be pre-stretched before wrapping. It replaces
the standard film roll carriage.
B. Carriage rotation group: the carriage rotation group offers the possibility of rotating the
motorised pre-stretch cart close to the "fully lowered" position". In this way, the film can further
wrap the lower part of the pallet. If the carriage rotation group is present, the direction of
rotation of the table must be anti-clockwise.
CEC BASE IGM REV13 16

C. Carriage with dynamic brake: it holds and winds the stretch film coil. It replaces the standard
film roll carriage.
D. Motorized top press: it allows to stabilize the load during the wrapping phase. It is controlled by
the logic of the machine.
CEC BASE IGM REV13 17

2.2.2 ACCESSORIES
The Builder has foreseen and designed a wide range of accessories integrating the machine.
The available accessories are:
-adjustable motorized pre-stretch;
-ramp to access the table with transpallets;
-clamps to fix the ramp to the ground;
-pit frame;
-machine feet allowing the use of pallet stacker;
-disconnector;
-clip to tie the film to the turntable;
-potentiometer to control the film tension;
-multi-turn potentiometer to control the film tension;
-stopped by 90°;
-photocell for black load;
-automatic cutting of the film;
-external pushbutton to return to the program memorized;
-Start or Reset or Esc or Stop by external pushbutton;
-light signal on the main column;
-low and/or high fixed roping system;
-limit switch on pre-stretch carriage door.
Accessories, especially if combined, are sufficient to satisfy main needs, improving the machine’s
performance and simplifying its use.
The description and the operating instructions of additional accessories are enclosed to the main
operating and maintenance “base” machine manual.

The standard height of the machine is 2500 mm, according to the Client’s needs, the machine can
be 2000 mm, 3000 mm or 3500 mm high.
H=2500 (STANDARD) – H=2000 (OPTIONAL) – H=3000 (OPTIONAL) – H=3500 (OPTIONAL)
2.6 NECESSARY SPACE
The necessary space for using and maintaining the machine can be deduced from the dimensions
of the machine itself and from the need to load pallets onto the rotating platform. Under normal
usage and maintenance conditions it should therefore be possible to operate comfortably, without
any obstacles to accessing the machine, in any of its parts.
2.7 ELECTRICAL TOLERANCES OF THE MACHINE
Working voltage: the electrical equipment is designed to operate a nominal voltage of 230 V. Any
variations will compromise the life of the electrical equipment. If variations larger than the standard
values are foreseen, please contact the machine Builder.
2.8 POWER EQUIPMENT
The label with the power equipment data is located in a readable position. On it there are written
the builder’s name, the symbol CE, the serial number, the supply voltage and the absorbed power
data, in accordance with regulations currently in force.
2.9 ELECTROMAGNETIC ENVIRONMENT
The machine can run in a correct way both in an industrial and in a residential electromagnetic
environment. The conformity is guaranteed by the implementation of the Harmonized Technical
Norms.
2.10 ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
The machine is designed to operate in indoor environments, with limited exposure to dust and
humidity and in an environment with a temperature ranging between 5°C and 40°C.
The machine can work in environments in temperatures less than 5°C or higher than 40°C only if
equipped with specific heating or cooling kits.
Environmental conditions different from those prescribed may cause breaking and malfunction.
Should environmental conditions be very variable, special measures will have to be agreed with
the Builder.
The machine is not designed to operate in explosive atmospheres. It is therefore forbidden to
use the machine in explosive atmospheres.
The machine has to be installed within a building with a strong and well-levelled flooring. The
building lighting has to comply with the laws in force in the country in which the machine is installed
and, in any case, it has to ensure adequate visibility on the whole working area that is also used for
the handling of products.
