Conventional Automatic
Turntable Series (Raptor) and
Rotary Arm Series (Cobra) Stretch Wrappers

Rotary Tower Automatic, Cobra 1525

The unique rotating arm of the Cobra 1500 represents yet another way to effectively wrap loads without spinning them on a turntable. This method of wrapping is especially useful when wrapping light loads, fragile loads, or any load which might fall apart if spun on a turntable. The Cobra 1500 is available in a wide range of prices and capabilities and offers several options to meet even the most challanging stretch packaging operations.

Turntable Automatic, Raptor 1525

For customers who prefer a traditional turntable style stretch wrapping machine, the Raptor 1500 offers reliability and efficiency. The Raptor 1500 is designed and built for long service life and low maintenance operation. Heavy gauge steel, ring gear drive systems and PLC controls are just a few of the features that makes the Raptor 1500 the most rugged turntable wrapper in the industry.
