Shrink-wrapping a loaded pallet
Ask your film supplier for the operating
instructions.
The pallet must be lifted so that the four
corners are accessible: the purpose of this is
to allow the film to be shrunk under the pallet
and so ensure very strong cohesion between
the pallet and the load it supports. You will find
an accessory in the RIPACK product range
that is designed specially to keep pallets lifted
from the ground: the CALPACK (contact your
dealer).
Slide the shrink cover, which must be about
5% wider than your pallet and sufficiently long
to be able to be shrunk under the pallet (H plus
200 mm).
Ignite your RIPACK 2200 as explained in the
chapter "Operation".
SHRINK-WRAPPING RECOMMENDATIONS
(in the absence of instructions provided by the
film manufacturer):
Remain at a distance of at least about
30 centimetres from the film and start shrink-
wrapping the lower part of the four sides so the
pallet is shrink-wrapped underneath. Make
sure you point the air flow perpendicularly
along the sides of the pallet.
Apply the heat in a continuous movement and
at a constant speed.
