The Saturn S8 is the premium model from the brand for pallet wrapping. Would you like to know its advantages? Here, we describe them in more detail.
Key Features and Advantages of the Saturn S8
These machines have one main function, which is to wrap and secure the load to make it stable. It’s worth mentioning that this is useful for pallets, but also for containers. The number of pallets that can be wrapped while maintaining the same quality standards is the key factor that sets this machine apart. And in this regard, the Saturn S8 is a product that delivers quality.
Features of the Saturn S8
The Saturn S8 is designed for companies of a certain size. Why? Because to take full advantage of it, you need sufficient wrapping capacity to meet these requirements. In this sense, this is the most comprehensive machine the company offers. Here are the key features:
Hermetic Seal
The seal of this machine is hermetic, meaning it prevents film tails. This is achieved thanks to the machine’s pre-stretch film capability, which can stretch film up to 300% (from 1 to 4 meters). Therefore, it’s also a way to save on material. A quality finish is essential to prevent breakage or damage to the load.
Rotation Speed
The rotation speed is another distinctive aspect of the Saturn S8, if not the most important. With this machine running at full capacity, you can wrap up to 160 loads per hour. It’s the fastest machine available at Movitec. The fast rotation is key to achieving a competitive result compared to other companies.
Types of Wrapping
There are several types of wrapping possible with this machine. For example, you can wrap from top to bottom, from bottom to top, starting from any point on the load, with double wrapping, dust and rain-resistant wrapping, and, finally, stacking pallets as if they were one. All of these options ensure the wrapping meets the demands of different loads. Therefore, this machine is a great choice to meet diverse needs.
Advantages of Using the Saturn S8
The practical advantages of using this machine for your business are numerous, beyond the common benefits of automatic wrapping, which is why we consider it a highly competitive option. Here’s how it stands out from other machines on the market. Take note, this will interest you:
1. Speed
Speed is undoubtedly one of the fastest on the market. Consider this: running at full capacity, you can wrap 180 contents per hour. In manufacturing or distribution companies, this is crucial for working more efficiently. Today, if you make intensive use of this kind of machinery, doing more in less time is essential for optimizing available resources.
2. Savings
Savings with the Saturn S8 come in two distinct ways, and both are tangible and real. First, through the pre-stretching of the film, which saves a significant amount of film. Second, thanks to the savings in labor costs. Therefore, it’s a way to work more efficiently, while also avoiding problems related to human error, which are minimized here.
3. Automation
Automation is another advantage of this machine, given that the process can be controlled. For example, centralized automation with sensors helps adjust the wrapping to the specific size of each pallet. Another feature worth highlighting is that the spool change is automatic, so you won’t waste time.
4. Adjustable Pressure
Adjustable pressure is one of the additional features of this wrapper. This is particularly important because it minimizes the chances of breakage due to improper load adjustment. The ring dimensions can be adjusted to various diameters, ensuring the desired effect for each case (between 1,750 and 2,900 mm).
5. Versatility
One of the features of the Saturn S8 that adds value is its versatility. In reality, it can be used for a wide range of applications, materials, and sectors. The most important ones are:
- Non-alcoholic beverages, soft drinks, juices, and beer: In this case, the wrapping is compatible with the type of packaging used. For example, the top-cover function protects against dust and rain, and the roping function allows the insertion of a reinforcement cord.
- Wines, cava, and cider: In this context, load stabilization is crucial, especially since these beverages require special fixing.
- Cardboard and paper boxes: With the wrapping line, you achieve the same result as traditional wrapping with shrink plastic. Additionally, there is automatic tension control of the load.
- Barrels, drums, spools, and plastic containers: This machine works not only with traditional film but also with more robust materials like non-wovens.
- Containers for distribution and logistics: This is especially important when dealing with mixed pallets of different goods. With automatic picking, it’s easier to achieve the desired effect and works well with irregular loads.
- Phytosanitary products and animal feed: Both phytosanitary products and animal feed can also be effectively wrapped.
For all these reasons, this machine is a very interesting option if you plan to use it in diverse contexts. It will perform effectively, as long as it is properly adjusted beforehand.
Conclusion
The Saturn S8 is undoubtedly a benchmark for automatic wrapping work. And, without a doubt, an ally for businesses that want to improve their operations, save time, and eliminate human errors.
