Automated Stretch Wrapping for Steel Rebar, Copper Piping & Tube Bundles
Secure rapidly shifting bundles of structural rebar, copper plumbing, PVC pipes, and metal tubing. Eradicate the dangerous "spearing effect" with high-speed orbital unitization, engineered to withstand brutal forklift drops and fully integrated with VCI anti-rust film technology.

The Unitization Bottleneck: Stopping the "Spearing" Effect
Bundles of loose steel tubing and copper piping are inherently unstable. When tube mills rely solely on metal strapping, the inner pipes remain loose. During sudden stops in transit, these inner pieces slide out like spears, destroying trailers and creating massive safety hazards.
The Solution: Absolute bundle unitization. The high-speed Dynawrap Pro 1100 and Pro 1400 spin a continuous web of tensioned stretch film along the entire length of the bundle. This binds every individual pipe into a single, rock-solid mass, completely eliminating internal shifting and the dangerous spearing effect.
The Handling Bottleneck: Brutal Forklift Tonnage
Steel mills and distribution yards are punishing environments. Dropping a 4,000lb bundle of jagged rebar onto standard aluminum or PVC conveyor systems will instantly crush the rollers and destroy the production line.
The Solution: Enterprise-grade heavy iron. Our automated wrapping cells are integrated directly with massive heavy-duty steel chain conveyors and high-capacity motorized steel rollers. Engineered specifically to absorb the shock of brutal diesel forklift drops, they easily pull massive tonnages straight through the wrapping ring without hesitation.
The Volume Bottleneck: Massive Structural Bundles
While standard plumbing pipes require smaller ring diameters, structural steel fabricators and high-volume rebar distributors often ship massive, multi-ton bundles that completely overwhelm traditional packaging equipment.
The Solution: The Dynawrap Pro 1900. Built for immense cross-sections, this massive machine provides the internal ring clearance necessary to pass oversized master bundles of structural steel. It applies unyielding film tension, turning a shifting pile of heavy metal into a tightly packed, transport-ready unit.
Enterprise Automation: Dynawrap LUMI™ 3D Algorithmic Vision
Achieve true recipe-free autonomy on mixed-bundle tube lines. Available as an option across the Pro Series, the LUMI™ System utilizes an Intel® depth-sensing 3D camera and a dedicated embedded controller.
Volumetric Scanning
As mixed bundles of varying pipe counts and diameters enter the zone, the system executes real-time 3D scanning to determine the exact bundle geometry.
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 mill orders.
Industry 4.0 Ready: Robotic Cell Integration
Engineered for absolute end-of-line autonomy. Our wrappers serve as plug-and-play nodes for dark-warehouse and highly automated steel mills, supporting direct handshakes with FANUC, ABB, and KUKA 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 or gantry cranes to safely load and trigger cycles.
EHS Perimeter Safety
CIP Safety and PROFIsafe network integration, paired with hardwired optical light curtains for zero-touch operational security.
Tube Mill Consumables Ecosystem
Heavy metal bundles with sharp threads and jagged rebar ends demand specific film engineering. Our premium, up-gauged Cast Clear Machine Stretch Film provides the extreme puncture resistance necessary to secure shifting steel without failing.
However, raw steel pipes, structural rebar, and expensive copper plumbing are highly susceptible to moisture oxidation and "white rust" during flatbed transport. We strongly mandate deploying our VCI (Volatile Corrosion Inhibitor) Stretch Film. This active packaging emits rust-inhibiting vapors directly into the pipe bundle, eradicating moisture-related corrosion before the load ever reaches the job site.
Eliminate Spearing & Protect Raw Metal
From extreme-duty chain conveyors built for multi-ton forklift drops to high-speed wrapping rings, our automated cells are engineered for the punishing environment of the tube and steel industry.
