If you\u2019re buying a high quality semi-automatic stretch wrapper<\/a>, the answer is easy. You shouldn’t buy any\u00a0spare parts at all.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Today, the best semi-automatic stretch wrappers are incredibly reliable and low maintenance<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0Properly maintained, most of these machines run every working day for years without problems or breakdowns.<\/p>\n Moreover, in the unlikely event that something should go wrong, any slowdown or downtime would be brief.\u00a0\u00a0You can hand-wrap for the short term until a part arrives. And thanks to today\u2019s outstanding logistics, some manufacturers can deliver a part within 24 hours.<\/p>\n So rather than spending money on spare parts you probably won\u2019t need and will just collect dust on a shelf, you might want to invest in features that add value on a daily basis, like automatic film cut-off, load-to-pallet bonding devices, integrated scales<\/a> weigh the load at the same time it\u2019s wrapped or simple automation units that let the operator start and stop the stretch wrapper without dismounting from the forklift.<\/p>\n On the other hand, If you\u2019re buying a fully automatic stretch wrapper,\u00a0hand-wrapping wouldn\u2019t be practical for the volume of work you do so unplanned downtime could have a greater impact on production. In this case, it\u2019s a good idea to check with the manufacturer on which critical parts it would be useful to stock. Most can help you develop a list based on your specific stretch wrapper and circumstances.<\/p>\n .<\/p>\n
