Debuting at PACK EXPO, Lantechâs new QL-400XT stretch wrapper allows safe-to-ship wrap profiles to be built quickly and easily for virtually any load configuration. Calling it âintuitive, intelligent, and instructional,â Lantech explained the semi-automatic machine features its Load GuardianÂŽ intelligent wrap control system that guides operators intuitively through the profile setup process with âsmartphone-like simplicityâ and improves productivity by allowing the operator to remain on the forklift. In fact, Lantech said, it can save two minutes of forklift-driver labor per load.
The latest edition to Lantechâs LeanWrapÂŽ series, the QL-400XT includes the companyâs XT Cut and ClampÂŽ feature, which automatically captures the stretch film and cuts it at the end of the wrap cycle. It also offers Lantechâs Pallet GripÂŽ that keeps loads from sliding off during shipment and its Power Roller Stretch Plus⢠technology, which maximizes film delivery system performance.
The QL-400XT has a 5,000-lb weight capacity and features a 1-HP turntable drive motor. At its peak production speed, the stretch wrapper operates at up to 30 to 40 loads/hr, with a variable turntable speed of 12 RPM.
