Automatic Strapping Machines

On this page, you will find machines where bundles are loaded manually and where the automatic strapcycle is initiated by the operator.

Our Automatic Strapping Machines feature the same technology as the fully automatic machines and are, thus, perfect for all applications that demand high-performance, reliability and longevity.

A wide range of options and accessories guarantees that the machines can be configured perfectly for a multitude of strapping tasks.

Please note: One speciality is the optionally obtainable automatic strap tensioning mechanism. This patented process which is exclusively available at SMB involves the stepless measuring of the bundle height and subsequent automatic adjustment of the optimum strap tension. This relieves the operator and increases productivity!

Fully Automatic Strapping Machines

On this page you can find machines for the integration into fully automatic packaging and dispatch lines where the infeed as well as the initiation of the strapping automatically occurs.

The core of our fully automatic machines is the robust technology that makes them into real marathon runners. The first service of the sealing aggregate, for instance, is thus only necessary after 3 million strappings. In the U.S., one of the hardest and most demanding markets in the world, SMB machines are in operation which have performed 40 million strappings and they keep on running! Is there better proof of reliability, longevity and economic efficiency?

A wide range of options and accessories is also available for our fully automatic machines. Our know-how applied after a careful analysis of your requirements and the offer of project management guarantees that you will receive a custom-made machine or line that perfectly integrates into your process.

Please note: With regard to a lot of our fully automatic machines the strap tensioning mechanism is standard equipment. This patented process which is exclusively available at SMB involves the stepless measuring of the bundle height and subsequent automatic adjustment of the optimum strap tension. This guarantees gentle strapping and avoids operator interventions.

Strapping systems

Further customer benefit arises in which we combine tried and tested individual products such as strapping machines ourselves or, together with the appropriate conveyor technology, to ideally coordinated systems. This minimizes functional and integration risks, thus opening up a long-term security of your investment.

Strapping modules

In addition to our stand-alone strapping machines, we are also able to offer strapping modules as components for higher-level packaging systems. Our modular system is simply ideal in this respect with its consistently implemented concept. Each partial function of a strapping machine can be arranged flexibly thanks to a clearly defined function block. The modules can be integrated in many different systems. The compact size is extremely helpful in this respect.

These integrated solutions permit higher working speeds and better product handling with a favourable cost/benefit ratio.

Ideally, we work together with you already during the system development phase to produce a customised concept, thus generating maximum synergetic effects. In the case of existing production systems, we can also verify suitability in retrospect and make a corresponding suggestion. As far as the operator is concerned, such retrofitting measures can noticeably improve the efficiency of a packaging line.

Conveyor technology

The SMB conveyor technology makes SMB strapping machines into functional strapping lines. Optimally aligned interfaces guarantee a smooth commissioning and faultless operation of your system.
