How to calculate the capacity of the horizontal orbital wrapping machine?

The horizontal orbital wrapping machine is different from the ordinary turntable pallet wrapping machine. The machine does not use turntable as its packaging base, but uses the conveyor line to carry the goods. At the same time, the wrapping film is fixed on the turning ring and surrounds the product. It moves back and forth, so the packaging efficiency of the horizontal orbital wrapping machine is determined by many factors. Now we will share with you how the horizontal orbital wrapping machine calculates the packaging efficiency.

First of all, packaging efficiency must be affected by the size of the item. For the same bundle of goods, the diameter is 1.5 meters, and the packaging efficiency is definitely different from the 0.5 meter diameter. Because the radius of gyration is different, the turning efficiency of the turning ring is also different.

Secondly, it has a certain relationship with the width of the film. For the same volume of goods, the packaging efficiency with a 500mm width film and a 200mm width film is definitely higher than the 500mm width film packaging efficiency. Of course, the current 500mm width film frame needs to be customized.
In addition, regarding the width of the film, we also need to emphasize here that the width of the film needs to correspond to the size of the packaged object. Only large objects can use a wider film, otherwise it will have a loose packaging effect. For instance the thin aluminum profile is better to be wrapped by 150mm wide HDPE film but not 300mm wide HDPE film, even though the aluminum profile usually are very long and requires higher wrapping speed.

Finally, there is a certain connection with the conveying speed of the conveying line. This factor has a relatively small impact, because in the current situation, the speed of the conveyor line can be adjusted. Generally speaking, it is mainly limited by the turning ring rotation speed of the machine itself. It is the low rotating speed of the machine made the speed of the conveyor line needs to be adjusted to a lower level.

To sum up, the packaging efficiency of the horizontal orbital wrapping machine is the result of a combination of many factors, and it must not be generalized.
