Track and reduce your stretch wrap use

摘要

With high-volume, automatic stretch wrappers unitizing up to 100 loads an hour, rare is the manager who isn't interested in controlling stretch film costs. To help users keep tabs on how much stretch film is applied to a load, as well as to track usage (and expense) over time, Orion Packaging Systems offers the Sentinel stretch film monitoring option for use on their automatic stretch wrap machines. "We're not the first manufacturer to offer remote monitoring of film use, but our Sentinel system is the only one that physically weighs the film roll before and after the wrap cycle instead of calculating approximate usage based on revolutions," says Peter Vilardi, director of marketing at Orion Packaging Systems. "Weighing the film most accurately determines how much was used in unitizing each load."
