The Framewrap 180S is an automatic orbital stretch wrapping machine for window and door frames, mouldings and profiles, with a 10–50 rpm ring and a stronger 3 kW main motor than the 150S. It applies stretch film through a rotating ring as the product advances on the conveyor, protecting surfaces and stabilising the load, with no limit on product length.
What it wraps
- Window and door frames
- PVC, aluminium and steel mouldings
- Profiles and bars
- Painted or laminated surface items needing scratch protection
Minimum product size: 40 x 500 x 750 mm (W x H x L).
How it works
The product travels along the conveyor belt through the vertical wrapping ring, which rotates to wind stretch film around the frame. Its ring turns at 10–50 rpm – slower than the 20–85 rpm of the 150S – and keeps overlap and tension consistent. Fully automatic operation minimises operator involvement.

Applications in detail
The Framewrap 180S wraps window and door frames, mouldings and profiles up to 150 mm deep and 1200 mm high. It has the same product range as the 150S, a stronger 3 kW main motor and a narrower machine (2050 mm wide), which helps where floor space next to the assembly line is tight.
PVC, aluminium and timber window frames
Window frames and sashes up to 1200 mm high and 150 mm deep are wrapped straight after assembly. The film covers the visible faces and corners, which are the parts most often scratched or dented when frames are stacked in stillages and loaded onto trucks.
Door frames and small door assemblies
Door frames and small door assemblies within the size range are wrapped in the same way, keeping hinges, fittings and protective tapes in place.
Mouldings, slim profiles and bars
PVC, aluminium and steel mouldings, slim profiles and bars can be wrapped standing up, individually or as small bundles, which protects painted, laminated or anodised surfaces from scratches.
Painted and laminated items
Products with coloured, woodgrain-laminated or powder-coated surfaces benefit most from full film coverage, because a single scratch on a visible face can mean a rejected frame on site.
Why frames are wrapped standing up
A finished window or door frame is wide and tall but thin. Laid flat, it would need a very large ring and would sag between supports; standing upright, it passes through a tall, narrow ring opening. On the Framewrap, the frame stands on its edge on the conveyor and travels through the vertical ring, which winds stretch film around the full height and width of the frame as it moves forward.
Because the frame keeps moving, there is no upper limit on its length: a single sash and a long multi-light frame are wrapped the same way. Ring speed and conveyor speed are set independently, which controls how much the film overlaps and how tightly it holds the frame. The film protects the profile faces and corners from scratches and dirt, and keeps sashes and fittings in place during handling and transport.
Choosing between the Framewrap models
The Framewrap series has two ring sizes. The 150S and 180S take frames up to 1200 mm high; the 220S and 250S take frames up to 2050 and 2235 mm high and use 500 mm film. Choose the 180S over the 150S when you want the stronger drive and the narrower footprint; choose the 220S or 250S when your tallest frames exceed 1200 mm.
| Model | Max. width × height | Min. product size | Film width | Ring speed | Total power | Machine size (W × H × L) | Weight |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Framewrap 150S | 150 × 1200 mm | 40 × 500 × 750 mm | 250 mm | 20–85 rpm | 3.5 kW | 2740 × 2359 × 6451 mm | 1250 kg |
| Framewrap 180S | 150 × 1200 mm | 40 × 500 × 750 mm | 250 mm | 10–50 rpm | 4.5 kW | 2050 × 2670 × 6350 mm | 1250 kg |
| Framewrap 220S | 150 × 2050 mm | 40 × 900 × 1200 mm | 500 mm | 10–35 rpm | 5.6 kW | 3450 × 3150 × 6750 mm | 2050 kg |
| Framewrap 250S | 150 × 2235 mm | 40 × 890 × 1250 mm | 500 mm | 10–35 rpm | 6.2 kW | 3700 × 3350 × 6750 mm | 2500 kg |
All models have a conveyor speed of up to 12 m/min and a load capacity of 100 kg/m, and wrap products of unlimited length.
Stretch film for the Framewrap 180S
The Framewrap 180S takes stretch film rolls up to 250 mm wide and 230 mm in diameter on a 76 mm core, in 23, 30 or 35 micron.
- 23 micron is usually enough for dust and scratch protection on light products that travel in boxes or on pallets.
- 30 micron is a common all-round choice for doors, panels, furniture parts and profile bundles.
- 35 micron suits heavy loads, sharp-edged metal profiles and products that are stored outdoors or shipped over long distances.
Film consumption depends mainly on overlap: the relation between conveyor speed and ring speed. A slower conveyor or a faster ring lays more turns per metre and gives a stronger pack; a faster conveyor saves film. Because both speeds are adjustable on the operator panel, the overlap can be set per product instead of wrapping everything with the heaviest setting.
Installation and integration
The machine measures 2050 × 2670 × 6350 mm (W × H × L) including its conveyor and weighs 1250 kg. It runs on 380 V, 50/60 Hz three-phase power, with a main motor of 3 kW and a total installed power of 4.5 kW. The conveyor runs at up to 12 m/min with a load capacity of 100 kg/m.
Frames can be loaded by hand at the end of the assembly line, or fed from an existing conveyor. Wrapped frames go to stillages, A-frames or racks for dispatch. Edda builds the conveyors and line equipment around the wrapper and complete automated packaging lines for window and profile plants; see our PVC and aluminium profile packaging page.
Operation, maintenance and service
Day-to-day operation comes down to loading the film roll, choosing the frame settings on the operator panel and keeping the conveyor clear. Routine care is simple: keep the belt and film path clean, check the film carriage and cutting area, and follow 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.

Frequently asked questions
What is the minimum product size?
40 x 500 x 750 mm (W x H x L).
How does the 180S differ from the 150S?
The 180S has a stronger 3 kW main motor, a slower 10–50 rpm ring and a narrower machine (2050 mm wide); both take frames up to 150 × 1200 mm.
What stretch film widths does the machine support?
Stretch film up to 250 mm wide, on a Ø230 mm roll with a Ø76 mm core.
What power supply does it require?
Total installed power is 4.5 kW, on a 380 V, 50/60 Hz, 3P+1N+1G supply.
How tall can a frame be on the Framewrap 180S?
Up to 1200 mm high and 150 mm deep, with no limit on length.
Which ring speed does the 180S use?
The ring rotates at an adjustable 10–50 rpm, set together with the conveyor speed to control film overlap.
Is the 180S wider or narrower than the 150S?
Narrower: 2050 mm against 2740 mm, which makes it easier to fit next to an existing assembly line.
Can the machine wrap door frames?
Yes. Door frames and small door assemblies within 150 × 1200 mm are wrapped in the same way as window frames.
