Mach 1 Packaging Ltd. has invested many years of development in the engineering and manufacturing of stretch packaging machines and systems. Capitalizing on these 30 years of experience in the industry, Mach 1 can be a valuable partner for modernizing and upgrading your end-of-the-line packaging process.
The manufacturing facility is located in Montreal, Canada and encompasses the complete production cycle from engineering, to welding, painting, assembly, final testing, and shipping. This ensures exceptional quality and cost control.
Mach 1 thrives to offer the most advanced stretch packaging solutions in the industry. For this reason every year investments and efforts into research and development are made, striving to remain a step ahead of the competition.
Mach 1 stretch wrap machines and systems are available to end users in North America through a network of partners, packaging distributors and material handling equipment dealers. Many models are shipped worldwide.
Demonstrates wrapping of load with various box sizes and uneven top layer
NOTE: no sound in video
Video Features:
Operator loading the machine wrap (aka. stretch film) into the film carriage [only required on first use or when film roll runs out and needs to be replaced]
Operator places the load on the turntable of the wrapper with a forklift truck
Operator attaches the leading film tail to the load
Demonstrates "Gentle Cycle" control option, for very light or unstable pallet loads
Included at no extra cost in standard controls package
This delicate cycle provides a slower rotation of the turntable during the first half of the wrap cycle until the carriage reaches the top of the load and one layer of film is applied. The turntable then accelerates to high speed for the rest of the wrapping cycle
The slower rotation speed is user adjustable
If other loads are to be wrapped using a "normal" cycle, we recommend pairing this option with the "Independent settings switch for 3 load types" option which allows operators to quickly and easily select between different load wrap types with the flip of a switch
Rotary arm wrappers are suitable for applications in which very light or unstable loads are loaded into the wrapping machine using a manual pallet jack (aka. hand pump truck) or powered-walkie and cannot accommodate transfer up a ramp
Shows pallet safety hoop and emergency stop photoeye system

Video Features:
Operator places the load under the wrapping machine with a manual pallet jack (aka. hand pump truck)
Operator loading the machine wrap (aka. stretch film) into the film carriage [only required on first use or when the film roll runs out and needs to be replaced]
Operator attaches the leading film tail to the load
The machine wrap (aka. stretch film) tail is automatically managed, not requiring an operator to attach the film to the load at the beginning of the wrapping process
At the end of the cycle a fully automatic cut and wipe down seal is produced
Forktruck operator does not need to dis-mount to load or unload the wrapper, nor to start the wrap cycle (i.e. remote start)
Useful in high production rate environments where minimizing operational steps is important to increase efficiencies
NOTE: no sound in video
Video Features:
Operator remotely starts wrap cycle
Compete automatic wrap cycle demonstrated
begin rotation
wrap up
auto height photoeye detects top of load
top wraps
wrap down
stop limit detects bottom of load
bottom wraps
stop rotation at home position
alignment bar positions film
film clamp grasps film
cut/seal mechanism swings in, cutting the film and producing a wipe down seal
end of cycle film carriage raise (to improve cycle time of next load)
Fully automatic operation accepts loads from an upstream pallet conveyor system, wraps the load, and discharges onto a downstream pallet conveyor system entirely without operator involvement
During normal operation, the only time an operator is required is to load the machine wrap (aka. stretch film) into the film carriage when the film roll runs out and needs to be replaced (not shown)
NOTE: no sound in video
Video Features:
Fully automatic remote interlock accepts load from the upstream conveyor system
The incoming load is automatically and precisely positioned in the wrap zone
Following an automated safety check, the wrap cycle is automatically begun
Compete automatic wrap cycle demonstrated
begin rotation
wrap up
auto height photoeye detects top of load
top wraps
wrap down
stop limit detects bottom of load
bottom wraps
stop rotation at home position
alignment bar positions film
film clamp grasps film
cut/seal mechanism swings in, cutting the film and producing a wipe down seal
the load begins to exit the wrap zone allowing the wipe down brush to seal the film tail to the load
the load proceeds to the end of the outfeed conveyor
the remote interlock to the upstream conveying system will signal that the wrapper is available to accept another load
