AV 500 – Automatic rotating pallet wrapper
Fully automatic rotating pallet wrapper for medium throughput rates.
Medium throughputs
Fully automatic
Wrapped pallet removal in-line or at 90 degrees
The AV 500 provides a fully automated wrapping process with medium production rates.
All operations are automatic, with no manual procedures required.
The alarms provided are:
- film breakage
- end of film
Suitable for in-line installation downstream of an automatic palletiser.
The rotating base allows full pallet removal both in-line and at 90 degrees.

General characteristics
GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
FRAME
Rugged steel frame.
TURNTABLE BASE
Turntable base complete with motorised roller bed for automatic full pallet positioning and removal, designed to ensure palletised load stability even at the highest wrapping speeds..
ROTATION SPEED
Speed is controlled by a variable frequency drive (inverter).
REEL STAND
Reel stand designed for simple, quick replacement, to minimise machine downtimes.
FILM TENSION CONTROL
Film tension control with precise, constant adjustment.
REEL RAISING AND LOWERING
Variable speed reel raising and lowering (with inverter) for adjustment of wrapping “spiral” (film overlap %).
AUTOMATIC PALLET HEIGHT DETECTION PHOTOCELL
Automatic pallet height detection photocell for “self-regulation” to pallets of different heights.
Hooding machine
TOP 601 - AUTOMATIC PALLET HOODING MACHINE
The TOP 601 can also be retrofitted to complete the AV 500 pallet wrapper.
The pallet hooding machine consists of a free-standing frame which can be installed in front of the AV 500 pallet wrapper.
This exclusive feature allows costs to be kept down without precluding the possibility of future adoption.
TOP PALLET PROTECTION
The top of the pallet is protected through application of a protective hood.
Film Lifting
Hood
Film Lowering
REEL STAND
For quick, easy changing, the reel stand is about 800 mm above floor level (the natural working position corresponding to the height of the full pallet). Raising and lowering is electric, powered by a geared motor.
There is a reel end alarm.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
- Film on reel
- Max. diameter 250 mm
- Max. width 1950 mm
- Film thickness 80/120 microns
- Autonomy 150 pallets (*)
(*) data vary depending on type of film used and palletised load dimensions.
FILM PULLING , CUTTER BLADE AND PHOTOCELL
Film pulling and application clamps. The film (hood) is pulled horizontally by a set of clamps, which grip the leading edge and place it on top of the full pallet.
Cutter blade. Once unwound, the film is cut by a pneumatically operated longitudinal blade.
Automatic pallet height detection photocell for “self-regulation” to pallets of different heights.
1) Film reel
2) Idle rollers
3) Film pressers
4) Cutter blade
5) Clamp which grips film and places it on the pallet
6) Vertically mobile bearing structure (automatically raised and lowered depending on full pallet dimensions)
Optional
OPTIONAL
FEED ROLLER BED WITH MOTORISED ROLLERS
Feed roller bed with motorised rollers, complete with photocell for full pallet detection.
WRAPPED PALLET PARKING ROLLER BED
Wrapped pallet parking roller bed (with idle or motorised rollers depending on plant requirements).
Feed roller bed with motorised rollers, complete with photocell for full pallet detection and stopping of upstream machinery when holding space is full.
FILM PRE-STRETCHING
Film pre-stretching to 200% (*) before application (particularly recommended for lightweight, fragile palletised loads, it also allows use of a maxi-reel to increase operating autonomy).
1) Film reel
2) Friction roller
3) Motorised roller
4) Idle roller
5) Bearing structure
