Heavy Duty Lines Steel Tube & Heavy Load Packaging Line

Heavy Duty Lines Steel Tube & Heavy Load Packaging Line – Edda

Heavy Duty Lines are automatic orbital stretch wrapping lines for steel tubes, pipes, metal profiles, timber and other long, heavy loads. A robust Spinner orbital ring is combined with long heavy-duty roller conveyors and transfer tables, so bundles of unlimited length are wrapped, protected against corrosion, dirt and handling damage and made ready for storage and shipment. Designed and built in Bursa by Edda, Türkiye’s first manufacturer of horizontal stretch wrapping machines.

What the Heavy Duty Lines packs

  • Steel tubes, pipes and hollow sections
  • Steel, aluminium and wood profiles in bundles
  • PVC pipes and long construction products
  • Long, heavy loads that need full protection for storage and transport

How the line works

Bundles are loaded onto the infeed transfer tables and moved onto the heavy-duty roller conveyor, which feeds them through the orbital wrapping ring. The ring rotates at an adjustable 10–80 rpm and wraps 23–35 micron stretch film around the bundle in a controlled overlap while the conveyor advances it, so even very long loads are fully covered. Wrapped bundles continue to the outfeed conveyor and transfer tables for unloading. Line length, roller pitch and load capacity are designed for each project.

Applications in detail

Heavy Duty Lines combine a robust Spinner orbital ring with long heavy-duty roller conveyors and transfer tables, for steel tubes, pipes, metal profiles, timber and other long, heavy loads of unlimited length.

Steel tubes and hollow sections

Tube bundles are wrapped along their whole length, which keeps moisture, dirt and road salt off during storage and transport. See our tube and pipe packaging page.

Metal and wood profiles

Steel, aluminium and wood profiles in bundles are wrapped tightly so they stay together in handling.

PVC pipes and construction products

Long construction products are wrapped for clean, compact bundles ready for storage yards and trucks.

How a Heavy Duty Line works

Bundles are loaded onto infeed transfer tables and moved onto the heavy-duty roller conveyor, which feeds them through the orbital ring. The ring rotates at an adjustable 10–80 rpm and wraps 23–35 micron stretch film, 170 mm wide, around the bundle with a controlled overlap while the conveyor advances it. Wrapped bundles continue to the outfeed conveyor and transfer tables for unloading.

  • Minimum product size 100 × 20 × 1400 mm, unlimited length.
  • Film rolls up to Ø230 mm on a Ø76 mm core.
  • Wrapping unit 2191 × 2341 × 4271 mm; line length, roller pitch and load capacity designed per project.

How an Edda line project runs

  1. Product and output review: your product range, dimensions, weights and the output the line must reach.
  2. Layout proposal: conveyor lengths, transfers, buffer zones and the position of the line in your plant.
  3. Engineering and build: the line is designed and built in Bursa, Türkiye, around your products.
  4. Installation and training: on-site installation and operator training by Edda and its local distributors.
  5. Service: remote support from our engineers and spare parts.

Because every line is engineered around a project, the final dimensions, weight and power depend on the configuration chosen.

Choosing the right line

Choose Heavy Duty Lines for long, heavy bundles that need full stretch-film coverage. For lighter profile bundles that should be shrink wrapped and banded, look at Shrink Nylon Lines; for PVC and aluminium profiles at extrusion speed, look at the Speedwrap Profiline.

Each wrapping unit is also available as a stand-alone machine; see our horizontal stretch wrapping machines and bubble wrap and stretch wrapping machines.

Installation and integration

The wrapping unit runs on 380 V, 50/60 Hz three-phase power with a main motor of 1.5 kW (208/415/480 V optional). Conveyors and transfer tables are sized for your heaviest bundle, and the line is laid out to connect with cutting, bundling or strapping equipment and crane or forklift handling.

What to check before ordering

  • Bundle cross-section, length and weight.
  • Output per shift and how bundles arrive.
  • Handling at infeed and outfeed: crane, forklift or transfer tables.
  • Corrosion protection needed: storage time, outdoor yards, sea freight.
  • Floor length available for conveyors.

Operation, maintenance and service

Operators load film, choose product settings on the panel and supervise the flow; on fully automatic lines, the operator mainly changes film rolls and handles exceptions. Routine care includes keeping conveyors and film paths clean, checking the wrapping unit and cutting system, and following the maintenance intervals in the operating manual.

Edda machines run in more than 80 countries. Installation, training and service are provided by Edda and its local distributors, with remote support from our engineers in Bursa, Türkiye, where the machines are designed and built.

What a line typically includes

  • Infeed: transfer tables, roller or belt conveyors, and centring or side guides.
  • Wrapping or packing unit: the orbital ring, bubble unit, shrink and banding stations or other main machine.
  • Outfeed: conveyors, buffer zones and transfer tables for unloading or palletising.
  • Controls: a central operator panel with product settings for each item.
  • Safety: guarding, light curtains and emergency stops as required, as in the Detroit end-of-line installation.

Every item is chosen and sized for your products, flow and building.

Benefits of automating this step

  • The same protection on every product, regardless of shift or operator.
  • Packing keeps pace with production instead of becoming a bottleneck.
  • Fewer people needed for repetitive wrapping work.
  • Less film waste than manual wrapping.
  • Cleaner, more uniform packs that look professional on arrival.
