Used packaging equipment is used to wrap or seal your products to ready them for shipment. Whether your operation requires a used case erector and sealer to rapidly seal boxes, or a used heat tunnel to apply a professional plastic seal to your packaging, ASI is here to help. We also carry used stretch wrappers to secure entire pallet loads with plastic film.
There are many benefits to utilizing used packaging equipment in your facility. It will help automate your packaging process, which will cut down on time and manual labor. Used case sealers and strapping machines use a very consistent amount of tape every time, which will cut down on your material costs. A used case sealer can seal up to 15 boxes per minute, which is significantly faster than a hand operation. We also carry used case erectors that can rapidly assemble boxes, and this can be synced up with the case sealers.
For full pallets of products, we carry a variety of used stretch wrappers, which stretches plastic film around a loaded pallet. Used stretch wrappers improve stability of products on pallets, and protects them from dust and debris. The three main types of used stretch wrapper are manual, semi-automatic, and automatic. The type of stretch wrapper that is right for your application depends on your shipping volumes and frequency of shipments.
The more high volume shipments you have going out, the more likely your facility could benefit from an automatic or semi-automatic stretch wrapper. If your operation is small or you don’t frequently have full pallets to ship, a manual stretch wrapper might be more fitting. When making this decision, be forward thinking and try to forecast where your company will be in five years. A manual stretch wrapper might be enough for today, or the next two years, but a few years down the road you might have to replace it with a semi or fully automatic setup to meet your shipping needs anyway. You should always consider upgrading now and saving money in the long run, as this applies to many different types of material handling equipment.
Whatever your packaging needs are, ASI will work with you through the process. We are only successful when we find the proper products to make your material handling processes more efficient. Our sales team will work with you until they are 100% sure they have completely satisfied you. Call ASI today for your used packaging equipment needs.
