When it comes to automatic strapping machines, efficiency and reliability are key. One of the most crucial features in high-performance strapping machines is the auto loop ejector. This function is designed to keep operations running smoothly by preventing strap jams and minimizing downtime.
We often see machines out there without these, sold by companies just looking to sell the lowest cost machine to users who want the lowest cost machine or are unware of the options out there. We have never sold a machine without one and never will. The low cost to add these to a machine(Typically USD$80) far outweighs the negatives of not having one. you could save that money on the first jam.
What is an Auto Loop Ejector?
An auto loop ejector is a mechanism built into a strapping machine that automatically clears misfed strap loops. When a strap fails to properly cycle through the machine—due to incorrect feeding, an obstruction, or other issues—the auto loop ejector detects the problem and ejects the misfed strap. This ensures that the machine continues operating efficiently without requiring manual intervention.
Benefits of an Auto Loop Ejector
-
Prevents Downtime – By automatically clearing misfed straps, the machine avoids unnecessary stoppages and delays.
-
Enhances Productivity – Operators don’t have to stop the machine to clear strap jams, allowing for continuous workflow.
- Enhances Productivity - Reduces the need to refeed strap, often a strapping jam, will result in the need to entirely refeed the strapping, resulting in costly downtime. Machines without an auto loop ejector will also rarely have an auto strap feed system as they're made as a low cost option, so each jammed strap could cost you 2 minutes if you know what you're doing or 5-10 minutes or longer if you don't.
-
Reduces Wear and Tear – Preventing strap misfeeds minimizes strain on machine components, extending the lifespan of the equipment.
-
Improves Safety – Less manual handling of jammed straps reduces the risk of operator injuries.
