KForce Rotary Arm Stretch Wrappers
KForce R35 (35 RPM) and KForce R20 (20 RPM)
Our rotary arm stretch wrappers deliver precision, protection, and productivity at the final step of your packaging line. Designed to securely wrap palletized products without rotating the load, rotary arm technology is ideal for unstable, irregular, heavy, or delicate loads that require stable, consistent containment during transport and storage. Unlike traditional turntable wrappers, the rotary arm moves the film around a stationary load—enhancing wrap quality while reducing product shift and film waste. Built with rugged components and customizable features such as selectable wrap patterns, automatic load height detection, and multiple film size options, Kaufman’s rotary arm stretch wrappers deliver efficiency and reliability across a wide range of throughput demands and operational needs. From standard 20 RPM systems to higher-speed 35 RPM configurations, our solutions are engineered to elevate your end-of-line automation with tailored performance and long-term durability.
To help you tailor your rotary arm stretch wrapper to your specific operation, Kaufman offers a range of configurable options and features that enhance performance, reliability, and ease of use.
