Beumer, specialized in filling, palletising and packaging technologies, launched a new, optimised stretch hood machine to supports its customers offering of sustainable solutions from a single source. The BEUMER stretch hood A sees the intralogistics specialist from Beckum redesign its tried-and-trusted packaging system from scratch. During the development, our specialists analysed various components and optimised them in terms of function, arrangement and ergonomics. This includes an intuitive menu system on the machine control via a soft-touch panel, an optimised, ergonomically designed workplace for the operator and material-friendly transporting of the film in the machine thanks to an innovative film transport system. The new system also features improved system performance and needs far less floor space.
For companies in the construction sector, chemical or food and beverage industries, the topic of safety when transporting and storing palletised products has become more important. This is what prompted BEUMER to develop a new machine in its proven BEUMER stretch hood model range that offers even more practical and safer handling for the user, compared with other machines in this model range. To facilitate work for maintenance staff, and thus ensure higher machine availability, the new BEUMER stretch hood A is accessible without a platform and steps. Maintenance works, such as changing the blades, or the sealing bars, are now handled at floor level.
