Automated Stretch Wrapping for Automotive Parts & Exhaust Systems
Secure irregular, high-volume automotive components right off the assembly line. Wrap mufflers, drive shafts, leaf springs, and bumper assemblies rapidly, utilizing robotic cell handshakes and VCI anti-rust integration for Tier 1 and Tier 2 automotive suppliers.

The Geometry Bottleneck: Wrapping Irregular Shapes
Automotive components like mufflers with flared tips, bent exhaust pipes, and sharp-edged leaf springs feature highly irregular geometries. Packaging these items manually is a slow, tedious bottleneck that completely stalls high-speed production lines.
The Solution: High-speed orbital encapsulation. Watch the Dynawrap Joy 450 easily secure narrow, sharp metal profiles at high velocities. For automotive trim, exhaust components, and irregular metal parts, the Joy Series applies a tight, conforming web of stretch film that perfectly matches the contours of the part without snagging or tearing on sharp edges.
The Volume Bottleneck: Assembly Line Speed
Tier 1 automotive suppliers operate at extreme velocities. If a stretch wrapping station takes 30 seconds to secure a drive shaft, it causes a backup that impacts upstream CNC and welding stations.
The Solution: The Dynawrap Pro 600. Engineered specifically for high-throughput, continuous-flow environments, the Pro 600 features high-RPM orbital ring speeds and continuous belt conveyors. As parts drop directly off the line, they are instantly fed through the ring and securely wrapped in a matter of seconds, keeping the production line moving flawlessly.
The Sizing Bottleneck: Wide Bumper Assemblies
While exhaust pipes fit neatly in smaller rings, fully assembled bumpers, side steps, and heavy truck leaf springs require larger clearances and heavier material handling capabilities.
The Solution: Scalable enterprise iron. For wider, heavier automotive assemblies, the Dynawrap Pro 1100 steps in. With an extended ring diameter and heavy-duty motorized conveyors, the Pro 1100 easily passes wide truck bumpers and heavy suspension components while applying a tight, unyielding layer of protective film.
Enterprise Automation: Dynawrap LUMI™ 3D Algorithmic Vision
Achieve true recipe-free autonomy on mixed-part assembly lines. Available as an option across the Joy and Pro Series, the LUMI™ System utilizes an Intel® depth-sensing 3D camera and a dedicated embedded controller housed in a rugged industrial enclosure.
Volumetric Scanning
As irregularly shaped automotive parts enter the zone, the system executes real-time 3D scanning to determine the exact geometry and dimensions.
Automated PLC Handshake
Our proprietary algorithm automatically calculates and pushes the optimal wrapping parameters directly to the machine's PLC.
Zero-Touch Operation
Operators simply select 'Optimum' or 'Heavy' protection modes on the HMI, and the machine handles the rest—perfect for rapidly alternating part sizes.
Industry 4.0 Ready: Robotic Cell Integration
Engineered for absolute end-of-line autonomy. Our wrappers serve as plug-and-play nodes for highly automated automotive environments, supporting direct handshakes with FANUC, ABB, KUKA, and Universal Robots.
Native SCADA Protocols
Seamless communication via EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, Modbus TCP, and OPC UA using enterprise-grade Allen-Bradley or Siemens PLCs.
Automated Handshakes
Standardized execution I/O (Ready, Start, Busy, Complete, Fault) allowing upstream robots to safely load and trigger wrapping cycles.
EHS Perimeter Safety
CIP Safety and PROFIsafe network integration, paired with hardwired optical light curtains for zero-touch operational security.
Automotive Consumables Ecosystem
Automotive components manufactured from raw steel—such as drive shafts, suspension springs, and exhaust manifolds—are highly susceptible to flash rusting during domestic transit or overseas export.
To protect these critical components, we strongly mandate the use of our VCI (Volatile Corrosion Inhibitor) Stretch Film. This specialized packaging emits active rust-inhibiting vapors directly into the wrapped part, forming a molecular layer of corrosion protection that completely eliminates oxidation and costly part rejections.
Automate End-of-Line Packaging
From high-speed Joy 450 machines for narrow exhaust pipes to the Pro 1100 for heavy bumper assemblies, our automated cells are engineered for the extreme volumes of Tier 1 manufacturing.
