The pallet wrapping machine market has traditionally been divided into two categories. On one side, you have semi-automatic machines that require constant operator involvement, and on the other, fully automatic systems that rely on conveyors, pneumatics, and complex installations. For many businesses, neither option is ideal.
The Atlanta Stretch Mytho S with ARYA system changes that.
It delivers a fully automatic wrapping cycle on a turntable platform without the need for compressed air, without complex mechanical systems, and without the high cost typically associated with conveyorised automation. At MPS Packaging Australia, the Mytho S ARYA represents a significant step forward in pallet wrapping technology, combining automation, reliability, and film efficiency into a single, practical solution.
What is the Mytho S ARYA System?
The Mytho S is Atlanta Stretch’s premium turntable pallet wrapper platform, designed as a heavy-duty machine with a reinforced structure, advanced electronics, and modular carriage configurations. It is built for long-term performance in demanding warehouse environments.
What truly sets the machine apart is the ARYA system, a patented technology that transforms the Mytho S from a semi-automatic wrapper into a fully automatic solution. With ARYA, the machine is capable of attaching the film to the pallet, completing the wrapping cycle, and cutting the film at the end, all without operator intervention.
In practical terms, this means the operator can start the machine and walk away, allowing the wrapper to complete the entire cycle independently.
How the ARYA Automatic Attach System Works
The ARYA system uses a controlled film delivery method to attach the film to the pallet at the start of the cycle. Rather than requiring the operator to manually tie or tuck the film, the system projects and secures the film onto the load in a consistent and repeatable way. Once the wrapping cycle is complete, the machine automatically cuts the film, leaving a clean and professional finish.
This approach eliminates one of the most time-consuming and inconsistent parts of pallet wrapping. It also ensures that every wrap cycle starts and finishes the same way, improving both efficiency and load presentation.
A key advantage of ARYA is that it achieves this level of automation without relying on pneumatic components or mechanical grippers. Traditional automatic systems often depend on air-driven systems that introduce additional complexity, wear points, and maintenance requirements. By contrast, the ARYA system is designed to be simpler, more reliable, and easier to maintain over time.
Fully Electric — No Pneumatics Required
One of the standout features of the Mytho S ARYA is that it is a fully electric machine. This is a significant departure from traditional automatic pallet wrappers, which typically rely on compressed air systems for film attachment, clamping, and cutting.
Pneumatic systems increase both the upfront and ongoing cost of a machine. They require compressors, air lines, and regular maintenance, and they introduce additional components that can wear out over time. By removing pneumatics entirely, the Mytho S becomes more straightforward to install, easier to operate, and more reliable in day-to-day use.
This fully electric design also reduces the overall complexity of the machine, making it a more practical solution for businesses that want automation without the headaches often associated with traditional automatic systems.

Film Savings with PRS and PS Carriages
While automation is a major benefit, the most significant ongoing cost in pallet wrapping is film consumption. This is where the Mytho S delivers substantial long-term value.
The machine can be equipped with advanced pre-stretch carriages such as the PRS or PS systems. These carriages stretch the film before it is applied to the pallet, allowing a single metre of film to be extended to three or even three and a half metres. This process not only reduces the amount of film required per pallet but also improves load containment by applying consistent tension.
In operations with moderate to high pallet volumes, the reduction in film usage can quickly offset the initial investment in the machine. Over time, this makes the Mytho S ARYA not just an automation upgrade, but a cost-saving solution.
Built for Reliability — Commercial Components
A major factor that separates the Mytho S from lower-cost machines is the quality of its components. Atlanta Stretch designs its machines using commercial-grade, globally recognised parts rather than proprietary systems.
This means the machine is built with components such as high-quality inverters, reliable electrical systems, and durable gearboxes that are widely supported and easy to service. The advantage of this approach is that it reduces downtime, simplifies maintenance, and ensures parts can be sourced quickly when needed.
Rather than locking customers into specialised or hard-to-find components, the Mytho S is designed for long-term ownership, where reliability and serviceability are key priorities.
Industry 4.0 and Smart Control
The Mytho S ARYA is also designed with modern manufacturing environments in mind. It features a large touchscreen interface that allows operators to easily adjust settings, select programs, and monitor machine performance.
The system supports multiple wrapping programs, making it suitable for operations handling a variety of pallet types. It also enables remote diagnostics and advanced monitoring, allowing maintenance teams to identify potential issues before they become problems.
This level of control ensures the machine can be adapted to changing requirements, making it a future-proof investment for growing businesses.
Machine Performance & Capabilities
The Mytho S is built as a high-performance pallet wrapper capable of handling a wide range of applications. Its heavy-duty design allows it to manage both light and heavy loads with ease, while its controlled turntable movement ensures smooth and stable wrapping.
The machine is capable of wrapping pallets up to typical industrial heights and weights, with automatic height detection ensuring consistent results across different load sizes. Soft start and stop functions further improve load stability, reducing the risk of product movement during the wrapping cycle.
These capabilities make the Mytho S suitable for a wide range of industries, from manufacturing and distribution to food and beverage operations.
Designed for Australian Pallets
At MPS Packaging Australia, Mytho S machines are configured specifically for Australian pallet standards, including CHEP and Loscam pallets. This typically involves using a 1650mm turntable to ensure proper load support and safe operation.
This is an important consideration, as incorrectly sized machines can lead to pallet overhang, instability, and increased wear on the equipment. By matching the machine to local pallet standards, we ensure optimal performance and long-term reliability.

Other Mytho S advantages
NO auto components on the turntable.
One of the key design advantages of the Mytho S with ARYA system is that it removes all pneumatic and traditional automatic components from the turntable itself. On many automatic pallet wrappers, the turntable houses air lines, clamps, cutting devices, and other mechanical systems that are constantly exposed to impact from pallets, forklifts, and operator error. Over time, these components are some of the most common failure points, as they sit in the most vulnerable part of the machine.
The Mytho S takes a different approach by eliminating these systems entirely from the turntable. By removing pneumatics and relocating or redesigning the automatic functions into a more controlled and protected area of the machine, it significantly reduces the risk of damage during day-to-day operation. There are no air fittings to break, no exposed mechanical clamps to bend, and no fragile components sitting where pallets are being loaded.
This results in a much more reliable machine overall. With fewer critical systems exposed to operator interaction and impact, the Mytho S experiences less downtime, lower maintenance requirements, and a longer service life. It is a practical design choice that reflects real-world warehouse conditions, where equipment needs to be robust enough to handle constant use without relying on delicate or exposed components.
No Pneumatics, No Problems
Why the Mytho S Fully Electric Design Changes Automatic Pallet Wrapping
For years, fully automatic pallet wrappers have relied on one thing to function — pneumatics.
Compressed air has traditionally been used for film clamping, cutting, and attachment systems. While it works, it also introduces complexity, cost, and one of the most common sources of machine failure.
The Atlanta Stretch Mytho S with ARYA system takes a completely different approach.
It removes pneumatics entirely and replaces them with a fully electric system, fundamentally changing how automatic pallet wrappers are built, installed, and maintained.
At MPS Packaging Australia, this is one of the biggest reasons we position the Mytho S as a premium solution — not just because it is automatic, but because of how that automation is achieved.
The Problem with Pneumatic Systems
To understand why the Mytho S matters, you first need to understand the limitations of traditional pneumatic machines.
Most automatic pallet wrappers use compressed air to drive key functions. This includes film clamps, cutting systems, and attachment devices. While these systems can perform well, they come with a range of inherent issues that are often overlooked at the point of sale.
Compressed air systems require additional infrastructure, including compressors, airlines, fittings, and regulators. This increases both installation complexity and upfront cost. More importantly, every one of these components introduces another potential failure point.
Air leaks, pressure drops, moisture in lines, and worn seals are all common issues in pneumatic systems. Over time, these small problems lead to inconsistent performance, reduced reliability, and increased maintenance requirements.
In real-world warehouse environments, where machines are exposed to dust, debris, and operator interaction, pneumatic components are often the first to fail.
The Mytho S Approach — Fully Electric Operation
The Mytho S ARYA removes all of this.
Instead of relying on compressed air, the machine uses electric motors, controlled drives, and electronic systems to perform every stage of the wrapping process. Film attachment, cutting, and carriage movement are all handled through precise electric control rather than air pressure.
This creates a much more controlled and consistent system.
Electric components do not rely on external air supply, do not suffer from pressure fluctuations, and do not require the same level of ongoing adjustment. Once set, the system performs the same way every cycle.
This is particularly important in automatic wrapping, where consistency is critical to both load containment and presentation.
Increased Reliability Through Simplicity
One of the biggest advantages of removing pneumatics is reduced complexity.
Every pneumatic system requires multiple interconnected components to function correctly. If any one of these fails, the system can stop or perform inconsistently. By contrast, a fully electric system reduces the number of variables involved.
The Mytho S simplifies the machine architecture by eliminating air-driven components entirely. This means fewer hoses, fewer fittings, fewer seals, and fewer moving parts that are prone to wear.
In practical terms, this leads to:
- Less downtime
- Fewer service calls
- More consistent operation
- Longer machine lifespan
It is a design that reflects real-world use, where reliability matters more than theoretical performance.
Fewer Installation Costs
Pneumatic machines require more than just power — they require compressed air infrastructure.
This can include compressors, air dryers, piping, and installation labour, all of which add to the overall cost of the system. For many businesses, this becomes a hidden expense that is not always considered upfront.
The Mytho S removes this requirement entirely.
Because it is fully electric, the machine only requires standard power to operate. This simplifies installation, reduces setup time, and eliminates the need for additional infrastructure.
For many customers, this alone can make a significant difference in the total cost of ownership.
Reduced Maintenance Requirements
Maintenance is where the difference between pneumatic and electric systems becomes even more apparent.
Pneumatic systems require ongoing attention. Air lines need to be checked for leaks, fittings need to be tightened, and seals and valves wear out over time. Moisture in compressed air systems can also cause corrosion and performance issues if not properly managed.
Electric systems, by comparison, are far more stable.
The Mytho S uses controlled drives and electronic components that require minimal adjustment once installed. There are no air leaks to manage, no pressure settings to monitor, and no pneumatic seals to replace.
This results in lower maintenance costs and less downtime over the life of the machine.

A Smarter Approach to Automation
The move away from pneumatics is not just about reliability — it is about rethinking how automation should work.
Traditional automatic systems were built around the limitations of available technology at the time. Pneumatics were a practical solution, but they are no longer the most efficient option.
The Mytho S ARYA represents a more modern approach.
By combining fully electric operation with advanced control systems and automatic film handling, it delivers automation in a way that is simpler, cleaner, and more efficient.
It removes unnecessary complexity while maintaining — and in many cases improving — performance.
Real-World Benefits for Australian Warehouses
In real-world applications, the benefits of a fully electric system become clear very quickly.
Machines are easier to install, easier to operate, and easier to maintain. There are fewer unexpected breakdowns, fewer service requirements, and more consistent performance over time.
For Australian warehouses, where reliability and uptime are critical, this makes a significant difference.
The Mytho S ARYA pallet wrapper is particularly well suited to operations that want to automate their wrapping process without introducing the complexity and cost of traditional automatic systems.
