Model FPIS- 043 Pallet Stretch Hooding Machine

The FPIS - 043 is a fully-automatic pallet stretch hooding machine which forms and applies hoods to palletised products using gusseted stretch film. Film is drawn from a roll, stretched and placed over the pallet. When released it recovers naturally and tightens around and downwards. This providing exceptional all round pack support protection and security.
