When To Choose A Steel Strapping Machine

A steel strapping machine is built to handle harsh industrial environments. Steel strapping is best known for its strong tensioning force, which makes it the best choice for securing heavy-duty equipment. They can effectively secure large, dense, and oddly shaped loads and this is the main reason why they’re perfect for businesses in construction, metalworking, and other similar industries.

Businesses that regularly handle construction materials, industrial machinery, and the like have the most to gain from a metal strapping machine. The force provided by steel strapping can effectively secure steel beams, concrete blocks, and other massive equipment during transit and ensure that no damages occur.  While they may come at a higher cost compared to PP or PET straps, they make it up with their durability, reliability, and reusability. Overall, a stainless steel strapping machine will be a worthy investment for businesses with demanding packaging operations.

 

Bespoke Steel Strapping Options 

For automation, most projects require a high level of detail and bespoke design. FROMM seamlessly integrates solutions into new or existing packing lines, minimizing disruption and optimizing within the available structures. We retain our award-winning strapping heads and incorporate customer-specific design requests, ensuring that every system straps and unitizes products to meet exact standards—without compromising our manufacturing excellence.

Using state-of-the-art CAD software, our engineers create mock-ups and rigorously test them against the design parameters provided. Once the design is validated, we present it to the customer, detailing how it integrates with existing systems, meets local standards and safety requirements, and ensures smooth, user-friendly operation. After customer approval, FROMM engineers finalize the bill of materials, build the system in one of our three European factories, and conduct thorough Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT). These tests are documented with photos and videos for customer review before the equipment is dismantled, shipped, and assembled by our local branch office, ready for commissioning and final handover.

With options for both steel and plastic strapping heads, FROMM offers tailored solutions to meet each customer’s specific needs and requirements. See the various strapping use cases

Steel Strapping Machine FAQs

The biggest benefit of steel strapping would be its superior tensile strength. Unlike PP strapping which is flexible and built for lighter loads, a steel strap’s high tensile force is designed to secure larger and heavier items. While PET straps are strong, they’re generally suited for moderate packages. In this case, steel straps are more rigid which makes it the more suitable choice for hefty loads. While it may have a higher cost, a steel strapping machine will prove its worth through its robust tensioning capabilities.

A steel strapping machine is designed to handle heavy-duty materials. It’s commonly used in industries like construction and metalworking since these businesses regularly manage heavy, bulky, and hot products. The superior tensioning force of steel straps can effectively fasten massive loads of building materials, steel coils, and lumber and guarantee their safety during transit.

Steel strapping isn’t necessarily known to be eco-friendly but it’s recyclable and long-lasting. As long as they’re properly maintained, they can be used repeatedly so businesses can significantly reduce their environmental footprint while saving up on operational costs.
