The KPW-DB800S automatic horizontal strapping machine is the arch-type industrial machine designed for integration into automatic conveyor packaging lines — strapping pallets, stacked boxes and bulky products fully automatically with PP strap at a rate of 4 straps per minute, with no manual intervention between cycles.
With a standard arch of 1450×1400 mm, a tensioning force adjustable between 15 and 70 kg (150–700 N), combined pneumatic and electric actuation at 380V three-phase and thermal sealing with a lateral joint, the KPW-DB800S automatic horizontal strapping machine is the solution for operators who have outgrown the capacity of semi-automatic machines and need fully unattended strapping, synchronized with the rhythm of the packaging line. Key Advantages of the KPW-DB800S Automatic Horizontal Strapping Machine
• 4 straps per minute — constant rhythm, no stops — the KPW-DB800S automatic horizontal strapping machine applies a complete PP strap (feeding, tensioning, sealing, cutting) in ~15 seconds per cycle; at 4 cycles per minute, a line with a single machine can apply 240 straps per hour with no operator at the strapping station.
• Standard arch 1450×1400 mm — covers standard EUR pallets — the arch size of the KPW-DB800S automatic horizontal strapping machine allows standard EUR pallets (800×1200mm) and industrial pallets up to 1200×1200mm with heights up to 1400mm to pass through; the arch can be customized to order for non-standard formats.
• Force 15–70 kg adjustable — from fragile packaging to heavy goods — the KPW-DB800S automatic horizontal strapping machine covers the entire range of products: minimal tension at 15 kg for pallets with fragile products or sensitive packaging, maximum tension at 70 kg for industrial pallets with dense goods handled mechanically with a forklift.
• Native integration into a conveyor line — the KPW-DB800S automatic horizontal strapping machine is designed to operate as a station within an automatic packaging line; the minimum conveyor height of 500mm and the control interface allow synchronization with product sensors, the line PLC and other adjacent equipment (wrappers, labellers, weighing systems).
• Pneumatic + electric actuation — industrial reliability — the KPW-DB800S automatic horizontal strapping machine combines pneumatic actuation (working pressure 0,4–0,6 MPa) with electric control for stable operation across full shifts; the pneumatic components reduce the thermal load on the tensioning mechanisms compared with all-electric solutions, extending maintenance intervals.
• Lateral thermal sealing — a clean and durable joint — the sealing head of the KPW-DB800S automatic horizontal strapping machine produces a thermal weld with the joint positioned laterally on the pallet, invisible from the main face of the product; the weld withstands the tensile forces of forklift handling and leaves no metal components or sharp edges.
• Strap widths 9–15 mm selectable in the order — the KPW-DB800S automatic horizontal strapping machine accepts PP strap in the standard widths of 9, 12, 13,5 and 15 mm; the width is specified in the order according to the product type and the required retention force — 15 mm strap for heavy pallets, 9 mm strap for light products at a lower cost per strap.
• Customizable arch and dimensions to order — the KPW-DB800S automatic horizontal strapping machine can be delivered with arches of different dimensions than the 1450×1400mm standard to adapt to the specific envelopes of the products or to the space constraints of the existing line; UZINEX consults the client before ordering for the optimal configuration.

How the KPW-DB800S Automatic Horizontal Strapping Machine Differs from Semi-Automatic Equipment
The KPW-DB800S automatic horizontal strapping machine is designed for a completely different class of applications than the semi-automatic machines in the KPW range. While the semi-automatic machines require an operator to guide the strap and trigger the cycle for each strap, the KPW-DB800S automatic horizontal strapping machine receives the product on the conveyor, applies the strap fully automatically and releases the product to the next station — without manual touch.
The practical difference is significant: at 240 straps per hour, the KPW-DB800S automatic horizontal strapping machine completely frees the operator from the strapping station, allowing them to be reassigned to higher-value-added activities. On high-volume lines where a semi-automatic operator can apply 200–400 straps per hour with continuous effort, the automatic horizontal strapping machine delivers the same volume without variability, without fatigue and without dependence on the presence and working speed of the operator. Applications — Where the KPW-DB800S Automatic Horizontal Strapping Machine Is Needed
• Automatic palletizing and shipping lines — the KPW-DB800S automatic horizontal strapping machine is the PP strapping station integrated at the end of the palletizing line; after the robot or operator completes the pallet, it advances on the conveyor through the machine's arch where it automatically receives the programmed number of horizontal straps, without stopping the line.
• Manufacturers with a high volume of pallets shipped daily — factories that ship 50–500 pallets per day cannot afford to have an operator dedicated exclusively to PP strapping; the KPW-DB800S automatic horizontal strapping machine eliminates this repetitive role and integrates the operation into the hall's automated flow.
• Food and beverage industry — secondary packaging lines — bottle crates, product bundles and boxes stacked on pallets advance on the conveyor and are strapped automatically with the automatic horizontal strapping machine; the speed of 4 straps/minute is sufficient to keep pace with the primary packaging lines of most manufacturers in the food sector.
• Distributors and 3PL operators with high flow — distribution centres that palletize goods for multiple clients use the KPW-DB800S automatic horizontal strapping machine to standardize pallet strapping — every pallet leaves with the same number of straps, at the same tension, regardless of the goods type or the operator who prepared the pallet.
• Chemical industry and building materials — pallets with chemical cans, sacks of materials, ceramic tiles or metal profiles are strapped by the KPW-DB800S automatic horizontal strapping machine at the maximum tension of 70 kg, ensuring the stability needed for repeated forklift handling in warehouses with high racking.
• Printers, publishers and the paper industry — reams of paper, printed sheets and palletized printed products are strapped automatically with the automatic horizontal strapping machine; the tension, adjustable to low values, protects the sensitive products in the upper layers of the pallet from deformation caused by excessive compression forces.
Integrating the KPW-DB800S Automatic Horizontal Strapping Machine into the Production Line
The KPW-DB800S automatic horizontal strapping machine is designed as a plug-and-play station for existing or new conveyor packaging lines. The 500mm height of the inlet-outlet conveyor aligns with the standards of most industrial lines, and the control interface allows connection to the line's central PLC for receiving product-presence signals and transmitting cycle-complete confirmations.
The compressed air source required for the pneumatic system of the automatic horizontal strapping machine (0,4–0,6 MPa, 450 NL/min) is available in any factory or warehouse with existing pneumatic equipment — a standard 7,5–11 kW compressor simultaneously supplies the machine and other pneumatic consumers in the line without additional capacity. Three-phase power at 380V is present in any industrial hall. PP Strap for the KPW-DB800S Automatic Horizontal Strapping Machine
The KPW-DB800S automatic horizontal strapping machine uses PP (polypropylene) strap in widths of 9, 12, 13,5 or 15 mm — the width is specified when configuring the machine and remains fixed for that installation. Standard industrial-grade PP strap coils are available from all packaging materials suppliers in Romania, with no source constraints or proprietary formats.
For standard pallets with medium-weight goods, 12 mm strap at 0,7–0,8 mm thickness offers the optimal cost/strength ratio. The 15 mm strap is recommended for heavy pallets or for applications where strap consolidation is a contractual requirement (export, sea transport, products at risk of slipping under sudden vehicle braking). Frequently Asked Questions about the KPW-DB800S Automatic Horizontal Strapping Machine
Can the KPW-DB800S automatic horizontal strapping machine automatically apply multiple straps per pallet?
Yes. The KPW-DB800S automatic horizontal strapping machine can be programmed to apply a predefined number of straps per pallet, at configured height intervals, through integration with the line control system and position sensors on the conveyor; each pallet receives the same number of straps at the same heights, automatically reproducible for every production cycle. Is a dedicated compressed air source required for the KPW-DB800S?
The KPW-DB800S automatic horizontal strapping machine requires compressed air at 0,4–0,6 MPa with a flow rate of approximately 450 NL/min. This requirement is covered by a standard 7,5 kW compressor that also supplies other pneumatic equipment in the hall; a dedicated installation is not necessary if the existing pneumatic infrastructure has available capacity. Can the KPW-DB800S arch be customized for larger or smaller products?
Yes. The standard 1450×1400mm arch of the KPW-DB800S automatic horizontal strapping machine can be modified to order to accommodate larger or smaller formats; UZINEX consults the client on the exact product dimensions before manufacturing to deliver the optimal configuration without costly subsequent adjustments.
