Automatic PE Film Bundling and Strapping Machine (LYKZJ Series)

High-Speed Carton Grouping and Secure Wrapping for Advanced Healthcare Solutions

Product Overview

In the high-efficiency packaging of secondary cartons, secure multi-pack bundling is essential for downstream logistics and trace-and-track compliance. The Lingyao Automatic Film Bundling Machine (LYKZJ Series) is an advanced automation platform designed to collate, stack, and tightly wrap individual cartons using highly stretchable Polyethylene (PE) elastic film.

Engineered to operate at a robust speed of 25 to 50 packs per minute, this machine seamlessly integrates with upstream cartoning machines. It provides a clean, secure, and visually appealing multi-pack solution ideal for premium Healthcare solutions, Wellness supplements, and advanced cosmetic packaging lines.

The Cause: Bottlenecks and Damage in Manual Bundling

Relying on manual labor or outdated shrink-wrapping tunnels for multi-pack carton grouping creates severe production bottlenecks. Manual strapping is inconsistent; loose bundles cause cartons to shift and crush during transit, while overly tight strapping damages the premium outer packaging of high-value Life sciences formulations.

Furthermore, traditional heat-shrink tunnels consume massive amounts of electrical energy and generate excessive ambient heat, which is strictly prohibited in temperature-controlled cleanroom environments. Finally, human intervention at the end of the packaging line drastically increases labor costs and the risk of operational errors.

The Solution: Cold Stretch-Wrapping and Seamless Integration

The Lingyao LYKZJ Series eliminates these inefficiencies through precision mechanical automation and cold stretch-wrapping technology. Utilizing ultra-thin PE film (30-80um), the machine applies precise, adjustable tension to wrap the stacked cartons tightly without relying on destructive heat tunnels. This preserves both the structural integrity of the carton and the ambient temperature of your facility.

The system features advanced tracking sensors that synchronize its operation perfectly with the output speed of your upstream cartoning machines. By fully automating the collation, wrapping, and heat-sealing of the film's overlapping edge, it reduces end-of-line labor requirements to zero while guaranteeing 100% packaging consistency.

Specifications

Application Scenarios

• Advanced Life Sciences: Grouping and bundling of individual secondary cartons containing critical Life sciences formulations for secure shipping.

• Premium Wellness Supplements: Multi-pack promotional bundling for high-value nutritional supplements and vitamin boxes.

• Luxury Cosmetics: Scratch-free, tight PE film wrapping for premium skincare cartons, ensuring the outer retail packaging remains pristine.

How It Works

Individual cartons are discharged from the upstream cartoning machine and enter the LYKZJ infeed conveyor. The machine automatically counts, groups, and stacks the cartons according to your pre-set matrix (e.g., 2x5 or 3x4 configurations).

Once grouped, a mechanical arm drives the PE elastic film around the stack. The film is stretched to the optimal tension, firmly securing the cartons together. A highly localized, precision sealing bar then welds the overlapping film edges together and cuts the tail. The perfectly bundled multi-pack is then discharged for final case packing.

How To Choose the Right Configuration

To ensure perfect end-of-line integration, consider the following parameters before deployment:

• Assess Upstream Output: Ensure the LYKZJ's maximum capacity (50 packs/min) comfortably exceeds the divided output of your cartoning machine to prevent any accumulation jams.

• Define Your Pack Matrix: Provide our engineers with your exact carton dimensions and desired multi-pack groupings (e.g., 10 boxes per bundle). We will calibrate the specific grouping logic within the Premium European PLC architecture.

• Evaluate Layout Connections: If you are integrating this into an existing facility, provide your floor plan. Our team will design custom connection conveyors to ensure a flawless handshake between your cartoner and this bundling unit.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Will the film strapping process damage the edges of our premium cartons? A: No. Unlike rigid plastic strapping bands, the LYKZJ utilizes highly elastic PE film. The Premium European PLC architecture allows you to fine-tune the tension, ensuring the wrap is tight enough to hold the bundle securely, but soft enough to never crush or crease the carton edges.

Q2: Does this machine require a heat tunnel to shrink the film? A: Absolutely not. This is a cold stretch-wrapping technology. It only uses localized heat for a fraction of a second to seal the final cut of the film. This makes it highly energy-efficient and perfectly safe for temperature-sensitive Healthcare solutions.

Q3: Can this machine be integrated with non-Lingyao cartoning equipment? A: Yes. The LYKZJ series is designed for universal integration. Equipped with adjustable infeed heights and variable-speed drives, it can receive cartons from almost any brand of upstream packaging equipment.
