Perfect for the eCommerce, Distribution and Logistics Industries
Shipping environments with varying load configurations require an easy to use stretch wrapper that will wrap a safe-to-ship load every time. The S Semi-Automatic straddle stretch wrapper meets these requirements. Designed specifically for order-picked or unstable loads, common in the eCommerce, distribution and logistics industries, loads are placed on the floor and a wrap arm rotates around the pallet to apply film. With this stretch wrapper there is no weight restrictions. It can be loaded with a forklift, pallet jack or walkie-rider and unstable loads are not at risk of falling apart at the stretch wrapper.

Wrapping Safe-to-Ship Loads
Stretch wrapping has become the standard way to unitize products for shipment. But, just because the load is wrapped and it’s shiny, doesn’t mean it’s ready for the back of a truck. Without proper stretch wrapping, loads can fail during shipment, causing damage to the product and damage to the brand. It is estimated that ineffective stretch wrapping is responsible for $60 billion of waste each year, just in consumer product goods. Now, more than ever, improving stretch wrapping processes, setting a standard and maintaining it is important in any shipping operation.
Three signs of a safe-to-ship load:
- There is enough containment force everywhere on the load.
- The load is locked to the pallet.
- There are no long or dragging film tails.

Productivity Enhancements
Keep your driver on the forklift with the XT Cut and Clamp® and Click-n-Go™ Remote!
The XT Cut and Clamp® can help:
Reduce Labor Costs
- Labor required per load is reduced by an average of 2 minutes for most users.
- Typical customers save about $70,000 in 7 years.
Reduce Employee Injury
- Repetitive pulling and bending to attach or cut film can increase the risk of back injuries.
- Getting on and off the forklift multiple times can increase the likelihood of injury to the foot and ankle.
Increase Productivity
- Let the machine do the work so people don’t have to.
- Instead of standing next to the machine as it wraps, operations can perform other tasks like collecting another load or loading a truck.
Increase productivity by adding simple automation to your semi-automatic stretch wrapper.
The XT Cut and Clamp can save about two minutes of labor per load by keeping drivers on their forklifts. Two minutes may not sound like a lot, but for a company wrapping 80 loads a day and paying their employees $15 per hour, those two minutes account for about $10,000* annually (it only costs about $5,000 to add the XT Cut and Clamp to a semi-automatic stretch wrapper). Over a 7 year economic life of the machine, that is a savings of almost $70,000!
*80 loads/day x 2 minutes = 160 minutes/60 = 2.667 hours x $15 = $40 x 250 working days in a year = $10,000
Start the Stretch Wrapper Without Leaving the Forklift!
The Click-n-Go™ Remote control enables forklift drivers to simply place a pallet load on the
stretch wrapper, back away a few feet and start the machine.
Click-n-Go™ Remote meets the latest safety requirements outlined by the National Electrical Code. Using infrared technology and two-step activation process, the Click-n-Go is immune to
accidental activation from stray radio frequency.
