Orion, a product brand of ProMach, demonstrates the new S-Carriage pre-stretch system for the first time on the East Coast at Pack Expo East. The S-Carriage optimizes pallet-load stability for reduced damage during transit and minimizes stretch-film consumption to achieve lowest total cost of ownership. The S-Carriage becomes Orion’s new standard carriage and will roll out across all models by the end of 2020. Orion Pack Expo East Booth #1410, March 3-5, Pennsylvania Convention Center, Philadelphia, Pa.
Orion's S-Carriage delivers 180 degrees of film to roller contact. This reduces slippage and neckdown for improved film coverage and yield. The S pattern of film travel over carriage rollers is ideal for all types of cling films, even one-sided films, as the sticky side remains against the load for improved holding power. The labor savings Orion Insta-Thread and Insta-Cut features reduce film handling for labor savings, improved throughput, and lowered risk of worker injury. The S design also allows Orion’s customers to take advantage of evolving film technologies, which are now capable of up to 600% pre-stretch, for even greater savings.
