How much of an impact automation can have on your labor costs is going to be in direct proportion to the scale of your operations. If you are only hand wrapping one or two loads a day, then (all cards on the table) automation isn\u2019t going to make that much of a dent in your bottom line.<\/p>\n
If you are wrapping a lot of loads a day, however, then automation can make a big difference.<\/p>\n
Today\u2019s semi-automatic stretch wrappers can include time-saving features that will free your people up for more important tasks and save you money.<\/p>\n
For example, a machine that automatically attaches the film to the load and cuts the film at the end of the wrap cycle saves about 2 minutes per load, compared to an employee climbing off and back on a forklift.<\/p>\n
We often run into warehouse managers that have been getting by with hand wrapping loads (at all sizes of operations) for years. They know how hand wrapping works and they know how much it costs. To help put the benefits of automation into concrete terms, it is useful to calculate the saving of automation in actual dollars and cents.<\/p>\n
