Insight into Strapping and Wrapping
9th February 2025
Proof of load securing, strapping and wrapping will be on show at LogiMAT 2025. With its new Digital Load Pass, Mosca lives up to its reputation as a pioneer in digital sustainability solutions. The company also provides insights into the range of its product portfolio in Hall 6, booth 6D21. It ranges from the new hand-held strapping tool to fully automatic strapping machines and the Saturn S6 stretch wrapper.
The Digital Load Pass from Mosca celebrates its premiere at LogiMAT. It encompasses all safety and sustainability-related information for transport security of fully secured loading units in a QR code. Product data including dimensions and packaging solutions such as strapping or wrapping are stored in the cloud and made available on the loading unit via the QR code. “The Digital Load Pass is already being implemented in industries like the textile or battery industry. We expect that sooner or later it will also apply to the packaging industry and we are already getting our customers ready,” emphasises Alex Jesser, Product Manager Marketing at Mosca.
In addition to information about the straps used, the Digital Load Pass also shows the energy consumed during packaging and the resulting CO2 footprint. Products that have been tested for load securing at the Mosca TechCenter are issued with a report that is part of the pass and serves as proof of transport security. Additional information can be added as needed, as Alex Jesser explains: “The Digital Load Pass shown at LogiMAT is a prototype. At the trade fair, we want to find out what other data is particularly relevant for the industry and thus tailor the product even better to the needs of our customers.”
A cross-section of the broad portfolio
With the machines and strap solutions on display at the LogiMAT booth, Mosca offers visitors a cross-section of its entire product portfolio. The portfolio stretches from cost-efficient, semi-automatic solutions to high-performance strapping machines for individual packages or pallets, and ring wrappers from Mosca’s subsidiary Movitec. “As a system provider, we take a holistic approach that covers all needs at the end of the packaging line, complemented by digital solutions, first-class service and comprehensive advice,” says Jesser. “Our booth at LogiMAT reflects this approach and ensures that there is something of interest for all visitors.”
Beginners in strapping technology and companies with low end-of-line packaging requirements will find what they are looking for in the RO-M Fusion and the new hand-held strapping tool (HUG). A semi-automatic handheld device, the HUG offers high flexibility and very easy handling for small packaging quantities and increased strap tensions of up to 2,700 N. The automatic RO-M Fusion with closed strap guide frame ensures greater ease of use for strap tensions up to 450 N.
Solutions for high demand
The SoniXs TR-Connect and the KZV-111 are both fully automatic and equipped with Mosca’s SoniXs ultrasonic sealing unit. The TR-Connect with built-in digital package is a prime example of digital applications. Thanks to the integrated WebHMI, it can be operated by an optional tablet on the machine and via mobile devices to allow access to important parameters such as power or strapping settings. The machine meets the needs of tightly timed production lines with up to 45 strapped packages per minute. The TR-Connect works with both plastic and paper straps. The machine is being exhibited at LogiMAT with a double unwinder equipped with a roll of PP and a roll of paper strap. With recyled content of 30 per cent, Mosca’s PP strap also contributes to greater sustainability.
The KZV-111, which will be shown in action at LogiMAT, is suitable for pallets. At the trade fair, it will strap palletised load carriers in just 12 seconds. Various models are available with a strap guide or closed strap frame to meet different needs. At the trade fair, the machine is equipped with Mosca’s fully recyclable PET strap that is made from 100 per cent recycled bottle flakes. The strap is characterised by high strength, elasticity and durability and can withstand loads of up to 580 kilograms, depending on its width.
Advice on the right solution for your needs
The Saturn S6 from Movitec can be seen in action as well and gives insights into the stretch-wrapping portfolio of Mosca. The ring stretch wrapping machine can wrap up to 120 pallets per hour with stretch-wrapping film, which protects the products from the weather and dirt. The film can be pre-stretched by up to 300 percent to minimise material consumption.
“It is important to us to not only to show visitors the different choices we offer for end-of-line packaging, but also to provide them with comprehensive advice,” emphasises Alex Jesser. For example, demand for paper tape has increased significantly but it does not provide the necessary stability for all applications. “In a joint discussion with our experts at the exhibition booth, we will find the right solution for everyone.”
